    Sir this is Pat Robertson we’re talking about. Of course people who’s lives have been impacted by his hate are going to be happy

      Being happy is one thing, but hating on a dead person is something else. Also It’s one thing to say “I’m glad his negativity isn’t around” versus cussing him out and saying cynical negative things. There’s a balance here.

      This is my opinion and my experience that hating on the dead isn’t a good feeling for the one saying it and others reading it. These people claim to be morally better? Come on

        It’s disgusting that you would draw a direct equivalence between the hatred, suffering, and trauma caused by this man, and the expression of natural human emotions that harm no one. Any difference between, “I’m glad his negativity isn’t around” and any other expression of joy exists only in your head.

              “automatically make you a better human being” according to you.

              Clearly, the way you type and lack of decorum, reason, patience or moral character make your judgements unreliable. In fact, someone who behaves so despicably like yourself, that hates me is a compliment. If you have such reprehensible attributes that means I have the opposite, Hamdou’Allah

              Checkmate.

                My, you sure showed me. By totally ignoring the content of my criticisms, you have completely disproved them! Amazing. Truly I have been “checkmated” by an intellectual giant.

                The only thing your comment served was your own emotional needs. It did not communicate a single useful thought. You could have said, “I know you are but what am I,” and it would have had the same meaning and gravitas.

                  Time is limited and discussing with some as angry as you is fruit-less.

                  On top of you making no substantial points but insults.

                  Maybe try typing in a sensical civilized way if you want a civilized discussion.

        You should try pissing on margaret thatcher’s grave some time.

        There are some people who have far too much hate in their heart and the world is strictly worse off for their existence.

        Those people are few and far between, but they do exist.

            Yeah, no. Bad people are still bad, even after they have passed. I can’t believe anyone would have a problem saying,“Fuck Hitler!” Or Pol Pot. Or Stalin. Or <it’s a long list>. People who undermine the norms of society and spend their lives making other people’s lives worse should not get forgiveness, even in death.

              I understand the frustration. Although not for me, I respect others that aren’t Muslim that do.

              my bad.
