Dude: Divorce your Alzheimer's wife and "start over"

Pat Robertson, still with the hypocrisy and the crazy.

Funny how he splits the difference between the twin abominations of fornication and divorce. Correct answer:  "you can't, so sucks to be you right now."

His advice could only be the old "God doesn't give you anymore than you can stand" fail-safe for horrible situations, "but, dude, no tomcattin', no masturbatin'  and no divorce. Man, I hate this job sometimes." (Robertson's anguish for the man seemed genuine.)  

His sidekick actually tried gently to point out the hypocrisy and cruelty of this (so what if she doesn't know. Where does the Bible, or his typical sermon, say you can divorce a spouse with dementia or in a coma?) but Robertson basically cut her mic off.

The video ends abruptly, so perhaps Robertson found his way back to his fire and brimstone. Be better for us all if he found his way to Dan Savage.

    Robertson does seem to be the anti-Christian, reliably preaching the cruelest and least-merciful option or judgement on, well, anything. I don't understand how he ever got an audience, but then american christianity usually leaves me scratching my head :/
