Speaking for Others
Controversy stirs the masses. It gets people talking, thinking, and debating about the issue. So one person can create a movement, but what happens when this movement can massively persuade others to do evil?
If you haven't heard already, Pat Robertson decided to endorse an assassination of Hugo Chavez. Yes, I think Chavez is not exactly someone we want doddling around with oil, guns, money, and terrorists, but where does Pat Robertson get the idea that he can issue his own 'fatwa'? I didn't think Christians even made edicts like that, but it sounds like someone's getting a little to extreme for me. I certainly hope it's not some new religious cult called Extreme Christianity or something (I think it's already called Islamic Extremism?). Fighting the enemy shouldn't include becoming the enemy.
I'll say one thing though, you got everyone across the globe listening to you. Not sure it's the most effective way in getting people to tune in to your show. That's about as unethical as you can get for marketing your show and your religion.
Just to clarify, Christianity does NOT endorse assassinations, killing, nuking, Pepsi, or Coca-Cola for that matter.
