I'm not sure what that response means since I said nothing about gods views on people finger pointing and judging instead of being compassionate and understanding.

Pat Robertson showed plenty of compassion, immediately following what he said with calls to help, support, and aid the people of Haiti in any way we can. He did not say that the people currently living in Haiti were in responsible for their condition any more than he views me as being personally responsible for original sin even if, nonetheless, I live under its cloud.

My point is more that it is odd for people who believe in the same god as Robertson to say that this god would never behave in the way described when similar behavior is central to the beliefs of Christians (as well as Judaism and Islam).

ETA: It occurs to me that maybe you weren't responding to my post. If so, never mind.
