Pat Robertson

The Christian Broadcasting Network is sort of sorry if Pat Robertson came across a chauvinistic pig this week.

The televangelist appeared on The 700 Club Wednesday and responded to a viewer's question about how to forgive a cheating husband by initially telling her to focus on the man's positive traits.

"Does he provide a home for you to live in? Does he provide food for you to eat?" Robertson asked. "Is he handsome?"

Robertson - who shrugged off David Petraeus' affair with Paula Broadwell because the latter is attractive - then caused a real firestorm with his closing remarks:

Pat Robertson has already offered up advice about LGBT activities (they are members of The Illuminati!) and advice for those whose wives aren't respectful (become Muslim and beat them!).

Now, the televangelist has words of wisdom for any woman with a cheating husband: GET OVER IT! CONSIDER THE TEMPTATIONS! BE GRATEFUL HE PROVIDES FOR YOU!

That's a summation of what he told a viewer on yesterday's episode of The 700 Club, as she asked Robertson how to forgive her straying man.

"Males have a tendency to wander a little bit," Robertson said. "What you want to do is make a home so wonderful that he doesn't want to wander."

Seriously, woman... come on! Shape up!

Pat Robertson Cheating Advice: Suck It Up!

Robertson has expressed similar sentiments about male infidelity in the past.

Last November, after the David Petraeus affair with Paula Broadwell came to light, Robertson didn't see it as a big deal. He's a man, after all, and she's hot. This stuff happens.

The Illuminati are alive and well, in the form of LGBT activists who have set out to destroy the family, church and state, Pat Robertson implied last night.

Pat Robertson on Illuminati

The former Republican presidential candidate and longtime televangelist linked the modern gay rights movement to the Illuminati of the French Revolution.

“It has been said that those who do not learn the lessons of history are doomed to live them again,” the 83-year-old said Wednesday on the 700 Club.

In his latest controversial remark, Pat Robertson believes that "awful-looking" women are predominantly to blame for a romance-deficient marriages.

Yes, he actually said this.

Pat Robertson on Ugly Women, Marital Problems

When a 17-year-old boy wrote to Maxim asking for advice on how to get his video game-loving dad to pay more attention to his mom, Pat had to weigh in.

On an episode of the Christian Broadcasting Network's "700 Club," he said, "It may be your mom isn't as sweet as you think ... She may be kind of hard-nosed."

Robertson then went on to to say that perhaps she should put in more effort, as "awful-looking" women can be to blame for certain marital problems:

Conservative televangelist Pat Robertson is weighing in on Gen. David Petraeus' affair with Paula Broadwell ... and says he can't really blame the guy.

After all, he's a man, and she's really attractive.

"The man's off in a foreign land and he's lonely and here's a good looking lady throwing herself at him. I mean, he's a man," Robertson said in an interview.

He continued describing Paula Broadwell:

Pat Robertson is at it again.

The controversial televangelist suggested that a caller move to Saudi Arabia, ostensibly so he can legally beat his non-submissive, disrespectful spouse.

On Monday's broadcast of his show The 700 Club, viewer Michael asked for marital advice, as his wife "has no respect for me as the head of the house."

Robertson's take: "Well, you could become a Muslim and you could beat her."

Pat Robertson to Caller: Become Muslim, Beat Wife

Robertson's co-host, Terry Meeuwsen, laughed at this. He wasn't done either.

"I don’t think we condone wife-beating these days but something has got to be done to make her," he said, calling the unnamed woman a "rebellious child."

Since the Bible doesn't allow for divorce, Robertson urged they "move to Saudi Arabia," where, ostensibly, beating her would be more socially permissible.

So, there's your free advice Michael. Good thing this guy doesn't have a huge audience and isn't a widely respected figure among many ... never mind.
