- Mr. Gerard Straub was formerly a producer for Pat Robertson's 700 Club, but soon became disillusioned with that brand of theocracy. In fact, he was so incensed with Robertson's demagoguery that he wrote a book called "Salvation for Sale," which exposes Robertson for the fraud that he is. This speech was delivered at a meeting of Americans United in 1995.
These people don't care about your soul, THEY WORSHIP THE ALMIGHTY DOLLAR!!
And that's what you call wolves and sheep clothing
Well he when to hell today
These people as in Televangelists
i don't need this guy to tell me the truth about robertson, i've known the truth about him and his ilk for a long time, but thanks for telling your story anyway..
Pat Brennan great use of the word "ilk"... it needs to be used properly for full effect
Please share your findings...
That's probably why Kristy watts left 700 club, cause of the money that people sent in to support 700 club didn't go on to help the needs of people around the world..
Selectfew: "Study your own thoughts and judge yourself", as you have written. Take your own medicine.

Very true !!
Yes that's it speaking the truth .wicked Principalities and powers in high places .
@TheLance3185
Seriously lol. Typical Christian jargon

Fake ass shit boieee. You give your money to those men of god?
The love of money is the root of all evil
well said the LOVE of it
Amen!!!
This man is very bitter; and gives his own world opinions on what is actually in the Bible. I don't support Roberston but this man makes him sound as devil himself and that is going a bit far. God warns us of attacking the brothern. Robertson is God's concern.
CSAcitizen Feather you are an absolute idiot!
Bawahahaha 😆 Steel is the idiot here.
I literally (and yes, I use that word correctly) stopped watching local programming on one of the affiliates here when I saw a promo for The 700 Club with Pat Robertson saying POINT BLANK that the Joplin, MO tornado was punishment from God for the way society is behaving. I have not watched KOAM since that day.
Think all televangelist who have their hand in the pockets of the people when you view this video. Always question a person's motives when they are pretending to speak for God, however you define the concept, are they living the humble life the man Jesus lived or are they feathering their nest now living in such wealth far above the poor widows who they beg for their Social Security checks, in short, just think, and, "call no man rabbi/teacher for you have but one teacher."
And the way you honor Thor every day you say Thursday!
Tak Wolf Thor? Please explain. As I'm not into fairytales which apparently by your comment Thor is.
+Jesus or Money, Power and Prestige ? Jesus is a fairytale as well. And just as real as Thor is. Both are figments of the imagination of desperate lonely people.
Tak Wolf Okay, this is interesting, yes, let's talk. What do you know about the man Jesus other than the way he's been misrepresented by the church and others who simply seek to make a religion out of him?
I'm assuming you understand that the Buddha never made any extraordinary claims of divinity and instructed his followers that after his passing they should not either. Likewise, the man Jesus never made any extraordinary claim of divinity in spite of what you assume, based on foolishness you've heard.
Now I know that to be an objective intellectual there are certain things you can't believe and be accepted into your community but you see, I've never been worried about acceptance, not by any village, and I think it's pitifully amusing for people who must seek acceptance of others, whether one claims to be a theist or an atheist not being able to stand on their own and believing this is individuality. Now I know where you're going to go, you're going to try to explain critical thinking to me and this I find even more amusing because the first thing you're going to say is that anything you can't see is illogical to believe. So I would ask you when have you ever seen love? You say you love your wife, you love your children, your mom and dad so show me the love, I'll wait.
I will also assume, of course, understanding the problems with assuming, that you know you can't see a tornado, you can only see its effects.
Also, as to weather, [perceiving your question] the man Jesus ever walked the earth, whether a metaphor or a composite, it simply doesn't matter. Deny the wisdom of such sayings as, "Do not resist [oppose] evil, but overcome [defeat] evil with good." And again, "if someone would take something from you give them what they ask and then give them more." You see, even though I can quote from a printed text, such as the bible or any philosophers they are not my source of authority I simply recognize that I can learn something from even the most foolish and sometimes others who have come before me simply confirmed what I have already been given to understand. You see people make a lot of assumptions and much more often than not, they are as clueless as the ones they would ridicule.
Now because I know I'm wasting my time I'll be brief as I try to clear up basic misconceptions, such as foolish notions of a man in the sky which is just as foolish as believing in time, or space, time, because I don't believe in the supernatural, but only the natural and this physical illusion, we deem to be reality. Are you still with me? Well, never mind I will just stop here and see if you read and consider what I've said or if you've only been formulating your argument against it.
Respectfully, Jerry
Postscript: how old are you? I mean this is important because not only is it not my place but it would be wrong for me to talk about such things with anyone who still has a legal guardian, i.e. minor children, I cannot suppose to instruct someone else's child, that's wrong on every level.
i think all of these ppl preaching start off w/ good intentions,then the money starts rolling in an the devil takes over w/ greed..we all kmow jesus was oppossed to money,worst thing america has done is not tax these ppl like everyone else..
My FATHER SENT MONEY THAT WE DIDN'T HAVE AS A FAMILY TO THIS MAN "PAT ROBERTSON; 700 CLUB !
I ONLY WISH HE WERE ALIVE TODAY SO I COULD SHOW HIM THIS VIDEO!
I watched chet\pat verbally attack Sheila Walsh on air for being compassionate and insightful in a comment to an audience member, I had it on beta, that's how long ago it was. chet I love you, pat you are a shill! I want my money back! it was to go to the needy not the greedy!
I remember much of this. I was always at odds with the tactics of the religious right. Only when I visit these "moments in time" on youtube do I relive what I've forgotten. And, as a result, I see why I was offended. "The road to Hell is paved with good intentions." Nothing scares me more than religious figures deluded with true power in their hands.
So where are the tapes now? Why didn't he publish them himself. CZcams's been around a long time now?
I wonder what this ex-producer's relationship with Jesus is or was? I know one thing, the 700 club has done more charitable work and ministerial work and outreaches than you can shake a stick at, to use a cliché. I've watched it on and off for years and their Christian doctrine is solid. They are an evangelistic outreach for Christ, and many souls have come to the Lord through them. Pat R may be getting old and a bit senile and isn't always cognizant of what he is saying. But he is a man of God and the message the 700 Club brings forth is one of God's love and forgiveness. As far as the Christian right. The goal of Christians, first and foremost, is to win people to the Lord so they may receive forgiveness and reconciliation with the Father. God will establish a theocracy on earth, not human beings, This is clearly laid out in the scriptures. Do not equate the far right with Christianity, because Christianity is not a religion, it is a relationship. Your life is a puff of smoke that rises and disappears in an instant. Tell me, are you certain where you'll spend eternity? You are not guaranteed tomorrow. Stop worrying about Pat Robertson, and start thinking about yourself. Pat Robertson did not die on a cross for you. Jesus did.
Shut the fuck up
Thanks for uploading. As a former fundamentalist Christian this confirms my suspicions on Pat Robertson.
I am a Christian, and Pat Robertson is truly pathetic.
don't believe in noahs ark that is ignorant
Oh come on Rebecca, They could have collected millions of animals, kept them from eating each other, loaded enough food and fresh water, built a sawmill, cut the trees, and built the ark, collected dinosaurs, and off they go sailing.
Sounds good to me.......
It's more rational to believe that design came from a designer than to believe that we came from stardust, which what you evolutionists believe. And yes, you do believe that ultimately we came from space dirt. Now THAT is funny.
IamDoogy You've got that backwards.
1995... I don't know if this is more depressing or less depressing standing at this point in history. Huh.
about the time pat Robertson ran for President he became power mad.
Ah, he's trying to sell a BOOK! Why am I not surprised.
"...Christian leaders are held to a different standard." Why? Because (if & when it happens), they are not practising what they preach. I am not aware that those other celebrities (Britney, Lindsay, Busey, Prince, etc.) claim to be holy or closer to God than most of us. If they make the same claim, then they are also hypocrites!
because you a soulless lemming?
One of the finest propaganda films i've ever seen. Well done.
LOVE that late 80's intro!
Makes me feel like atheism is the rebellion in Star Wars!
no clue what you mean, sorry
Wade Haden Ohhh noooo
Religion can have a strong influence on the weak minded. Obi-Wan Kenobi
ChannelMath More like 70's!
Read Straub's book many years ago. It is a good book.
Wow. This is important and has so many clues as to what's happening now.
whats the big deal about gay bashing. God does that in the Bible
Great teaching on tolerance-sounds like you're saying we must tolerate everything but Christianity.
If you think that Pat Robertson has anything to do with Christianity, you do not know what Christianity truly is. Robertson is a longtime freemason.
They still give false claims of healing when they pray they hold out their hands and say someone is being healed.

I am dealing with a contolling group which does business under the conservative idealogy and have high accolades for this video. Its a must watch and could be utilized for survivors of mind control.
Elaborate?
One of our founding fathers said It does not break my bones or steals from my purse if a man has One God, ten Gods or none!
Good to hear this
Jesus Christ said DONT BE DECIVED BY ANY MAN FOR MANY SHALL COME IN MY NAME AND SHALL DECIVE MANY!!!
This now sounds like ancient history.
I don't know about this man ,but people get gready..God will judge..
I agree with everything he said about the Midianites, and the fact that there are many nations that allow sex with animals and children, and this was also the reason for eliminating them all. The speak about women and their husbands is also spot on. I have no problem with Pat Robertson's theology.
Yeah you do huh? Moses fucked all the male Israelites
If you read the original document, Separation of Church and state is meant to keep government out of the church. Not literally out but as far as making rules.Oour founding.govt. put that in there for that reason. Why do people keep turning it around?
whats with the 1950-60's styled big ass intro?
May those who have been scandalized by such as Pat Robertson examine the real Jesus and His real Gospel, on their own
merits, and judge for themselves! I was once a young skull full of mush even after I became a Christian yet learned my way
out of that!
I have a problem with people who can't give a speech without a prepared script in front of them. That tells me that they have no understanding of what they are speaking.
yes this whole thing is imbarrassing
The film is "Atheists United"
I’m glad I didn’t donate no money to 700 club on the phone what’s the point sending donations for a prayer I’m glad I don’t call them no more glad u exposed him
If this guy could read from the page in a competent way he may have got his message across.
This should not surprise anybody. Sadly it does.
There we go
Separation of church and state means keeping the government out of the church like the bill of rights keeps the government out of the lives of free people.
BRAVO!!!
Graphics look like they were done in 1993 on an Amiga ;-)
No. This is some 80s production value.
Well he is a mason
Absolutely! It’s funny how respected these televangelist’s are. Sam Kinison was a man of God. He was a preacher and in his days as a comedian spoke heavily of the televangelist’s! In our reverse world Sam is made to look like a monster when the monster is called a man of God!
All churches should pay taxes. We would be out of 20 trillion debt.
Not taxes on that which is given to the poor & needy.
I got to say that the money that people send in to the 700 club , its suppose to go out and help the starving countries and to help the needy, not for there purposes..
"religion and politics is quietly fused"' -- In my opinion, any strict interpretation of the Commandment to never take the Lord's Name (God) *in vain* , I don't think that means says "gosh darn it" or even "god dammit" or even "God damn you". I think "in vain" means ANY use of "God" to enhance one's own personal vanity, to make oneself "look good" by "God-talk" and to leverage that for huge personal gain, being a huckster for Self in the guise of being a huckster for God.
Jesus didn't say "worship me" and he didn't gain material benefit from his iconoclastic teachings.
satan condemning satan!
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion nor prohibiting the free exercise thereof is, I believe, the full establishment clause to the United States Constitution - quote correctly - I saw Robertson saying he would send you the date of the Rapture for a $10,000 donation - he's a ripoff artist - But I find religion brings a sense of love to my life. I love God and because I do I will die well.
15 seconds in and I'm already bored and outta here
this is vthe sorriset most boring bunk ive ever b seen, this guy has nooo professionalism and these are pathetic lies
I used to give $175 every month to this demon!! God knew my heart and blessed me but once I prayed like crazy for God to strengthen my discernment all heck broke loose and I learned so much I’m truly grateful!! Money stoped going to that evil man and the only real preaching I see now that’s Biblical is David Wilkerson and Billy G. And how sad yet wonderful they both are in heaven so we are in need of wisdom from God to read our KJV bibles brothers and sisters and ask God to strengthen our discernment!!!!! God bless all I pray your eyes get open to this evil world we are in!! Jesus will be here soon 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙏💕☝️💪
I can tell you with 100% confidence you have absolutley no discernment whatsoever
Actually they are not so small - this is about 25% of American citizens - BUT they vote in a large majority AND they vote as a bloc.
this is not about pat r but a example of the many and varied ways the devil works on us.
I leave a comment just to change de number of comments 😂😂
Congress has no right to establish religion but states and local communities have every right and have done so.
@ 20:30 mixing church and state, he's talking about a form of law separate from the Constitution, (in other words, some form of law that's not US law) - his own brand of Christian law, (as he alone understands it) This is, essentially, no different from the idea of having a separate law known as Sharia law, (that some Muslims would like to shove down our throats). We need to start teaching THE CONSTITUTION in schools.
"If they succeed in establishing religion as a basic Republican Party tenet," he told U.S. News & World Report in 1994, "they could do us in." Barry Goldwater
@@southernromeo7952 I don't get it, is he your brother or your uncle's son ?? You may want to ask your dad and mom.. You sound like the one who slow,, just saying , bro/cuz/sis, hope ya figure it out , I swear other people's kids.
The U.S. has never embraced any religious establishment according to the First Amendment, but our laws and Constitution were all based on the morality of the Old and New Testaments of the Bible. They didn't have the illegal "wall of separation" between church and state as that has been purposely misinterpreted by the unbelieving left. When asked about the use of the Bible in our schools, Jefferson stated that the Bible is the cornerstone of education. Patrick Henry, who understood clearly the establishment of our Constitution and our laws, stated that “It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religions, but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ”.
Whatever happened to the guy with the expensive watch and rings who played a mean piano on one of those phoney religious channels? I wish I could think of his name, so I could google him. Someone please help me with this... he appeared on the 700 Club and had thick, dark hair and a very unique style. He reeked of phony baloney, but I have to say, he played piano quite well.
Pat Cavanaugh It was Dino, don't know if he used a last name
Thanks, Blake Ray. It doesn't ring a bell, but it fits the description.
Dino Kartsanakis, something like that--he could sure play piano. Married twice second wife's dad was Christian singer, and as pretty as Dino himself. Saw the family on tv at Christmas one year.
still can't figure out what Pat Robertson did wrong.
Look up Tom Althouse if you want to know how dark he is
Any body that goes on tv can make a lot of money. That doesn't make you a crook. I've seen on tv when people are trying to raise money for someone who needs an operation or some medical attention and they ask for only $10,000 dollars and they end up getting a couple of hundred thousand. That doesn't make the person in need a crook. That's what people sent in because they wanted to, nobody made them. If you send me extra money I would put it to good use. That doesn't make me a crook. I think Gerard Straub isn't telling the whole story. He sounds like sour grapes.
Whether you're atheist or follow the beliefs of any religion, I believe there is one irrefutable unavoidable fact. When you die you'll find out if what you believe is true or not.
C'mon back Jesus! Me, Pat & King Donald are waitin' for ya! I know Heaven will look just like 'Murica! 😇
Theocracy
*WHAT IS UP WITH THIS BLOKE'S INTENSE ACCENT?!!!!*
It’s strange you write that as the guy looks like someone else who wrote a book on a religious experience only his voice is different.
I know this comment is 3 years old but this "bloke" (you must not be from the U.S.??) is from the East coast. My mom's whole side of the family speaks with this accent. They're from New Hampshire, Maine and Massachusetts. . :-)
Once we have a real media, not a corporate media, we'll have good government.
Once we have good government, we can remove the tax exempt status from these front-religions.
And this man wanted to be president.
God done did it!!
God damnit that goddonnit fella!
Well
I think the piano player was from the PTL Club. I still can't remembe his name. He wore a Rolex and several rings.
Did a kindergartner write this dude's speech?
IN honor OF our blessed Lord AND savior JESUS CHRIST PLEASE PRAY THAT all people everywhere DO 33 acts OF kindness everyday and everynight immediately AND automatically and permanently THANK YOU.Please spread the holy word THANK YOU.
Thats stupid
He use to say he used his mind to see things and they would show circles around his head on the screen
I saw and heard nothing on this video which "exposes" Pat Robertson. The author may have well have said, "Pat Robertson" has doctrines and opinions that are substantially similar to evangelicals throughout the world." Of course that's primarily because he's an evangelical. What's really startling is that holding traditional values and orthodox views of God and Scripture is considered, by the truly intolerant, to be so novel as to warrant this much attention.
then you need to watch it again because your train of thought is shorter than a goldfish.
I see, so bigotry, financial chicanery and violation of the separation of church and state are OK with you. Got it.
the guy in the video talks lots of bs and stuffs that are not interesting at all, he exposes Nothing at all...
the 700 club interactive channel exposes the spirit realm like no others channels in history and is the best channel for testimonies of god reality and the spirit reealm and satan tactics in different reigions…
so, what did pat Robertson did actually? can you nswer me lol 30 minutes to say what exactly?
What in the world! He believed in eugenics!
Misconceptions, distortions and outright paranoid lies. You should fear God, not Robertson. ☺
Thanks !
Shut the fuck up bitch
The 700 Club still beats Islam.
Brother didn't understand he was joining a Pentecostal Church when he joined PTL?!? Maybe kick the tires before you drive the car off the lot?
"Theree's no reason to believe in god, there's no proof for the belief in god and anything that holds something higher than man's mind is evil." - Ayn Rand (Playboy interview.)
I can understand your disgust with Pat Robertson's 700 Club and the vast majority of televangelist charletans. I share your disgust. They do not carry God's message to you and me.
Here is the truth, and what you need to know to escape eternal punishment.
Simply believe that Christ died for your sins, was buried, and the third day rose again from the dead.
You don't need to do anything to attain your salvation. Simply trust Christ. All religions require you to do something. All religions want your money. All religions want to control you.
But Christ says just trust me.
I pray you read this and with Grace, which you and I are in, will see you to the truth.
People- Satan HATES us- please don't let him deceive you. Eternity is forever- ask Jesus for truth- at least ask him.
I really like this, but it sounds like an old 16mm industrial film. NTTAWWT.
This is a sad example of former believers who were turned away from the true Gospel of Jesus Christ by unscrupulous so called Christian leaders who do not wish to honor God's will but are only concerned with lining their pockets by perverting the scriptures as follows: (1) First of all Christians were not called to run the government or get involved in civilian affairs.. "No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier." 2Timothy 2:4 (2) Christian leaders are called to preach the "Good News" of the Gospel of Christ only; Luke 15:16, and only those "which do hunger and thirst after righteousness" will respond to it. Matthew 5:6 (3) We are in the last days and every day false teachers are arising; "Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; 1Timothy 4:1-2. In conclusion; Yes it is true that we have false preachers in Christianity, but it is also true that we have TRUE BELIEVERS WHO believe in THE WRITTEN GUARANTEE OF THEIR FAITH instead of a philosophical figment of their imagination based in an unbelievers unfounded theory. God bless..
Hilarious how this atheists' propaganda film has the same production values as the Evangelical videos of the same era.
I take that back. At least the Christians knew how to entertain. This was boring AF.
yes this is the most boring, confused and awful delivery i ve ever heard!!!
As an agonistic Christian (or a secular one), I'm not a fan of The 700 Club nor the far religious right. They give sane religious people a bad name. This is also why I'm not political.
Love the sound track
Mr. Straub is obviously possessed by demons, lol
Well, this guy sounds like a mainline Christian, so it is no surprise he would take issue with Evangelicals like Pat. There's no mystery to the attraction of Pat Robertson from an Evangelical viewpoint. Ignoring the theological differences, CBN satisfies a need. It is one of the few positive magazine/news shows, and it is Christian as well, which is an attractive combination to Christians who are starved of decent content. Hollywood just doesn't produce the goods anymore. Depressing, negative content is the order of the day. As for Pat Robertson, at 87 year old he's now humbler, and more of a grandfather figure. I haven't actually seen him trying to 'prophesy' as this guy seems to imply. He'll make predictions, but he's pretty circumspect; as any reasonable person would be. More than I can say for your average left wing journo pre-election!
As for words like 'cult', um, NO... Go and read up on cults. I've not heard of CBN breaking into government offices, attempting to extract info for blackmail, breaking up families, following people, running private prisons, jumping on Oprah's couch... :-)
He's saying to stand up to the spouse, not harm her. Why are people so sensitive about Christians having a voice! Leave that old man alone...Jesus!
...all is vanity...
How can this man still be alive? Oh that's right only the good die young.
Patrick Dunn right, and you never do anything hypocritical?
I have read several of these comments by those that are defending Christianity & attacking the non-religious types. This is why I am not a Christian!
I think we all need to storm the 700 for our money back instead of Area 51!!! We need to do it while they are live and on the air!!!!!
and then maybe you can tell your audience how much you are laughing at the
I'm a firebrand Atheist but I can't understand how all that Robertson stands for doesn't cheapen the love uou believe your jesus has for you.
You can't unsee the moustache. 3:53
And no-one kissed him ring, this is a joke
...All of this misguided attention and focus on a man.
I don't align my beliefs with what Pat Robertson asserts or even what he truly believes.
There is but one worthy example of perfection for man to compare himself.
The absurd concept of pitting one man against his brother was first demonstrated by Cain and Able, and the associated folly continues to the present.
Those who seek light, do not search while blindfolded.
Likewise, if you choose to follow Christ; keep your focus on Christ alone.
Should we be surprised to uncover evidence of self-serving deceitfulness in Pat Robertson?
Hardly, for that is the true nature of all men.
Jesus taught us that.
My life was forever changed in 1976 by praying to receive Christ with Pat Robertson via the 700 Club. You'll never convince me..
I was about to thumbs up the video before I caught the name of the channel... get a life
true. good point, but Pat's quotes are priceless!
We are all sinners in need of a Savior. Don't be a fool forever. Trust in Jesus before it's too late. Peace out.
Geraurd Straub does not know the Bible - he would know that God says in his Word that he destroyed the world by a flood when the earth became so wicked and the next time it will be by fire. Pat Robertson just believes what God says.
Unbelievable the way people use God's name as a way to gain political power and wealth. To be out of the body is to be present with God, it won't be long before Pat Robertson will have to explain why he was a selfish, self righteous, exclusive person on earth. Pat's thinking does not align with God's teachings.
