Pat Robertson Solves Viewer’s Muslim-Chess-Set Problem
Robertson Laughs: “If It’s The Crusades, The Crusaders Are Killing The Muslims!”
From the November 16 edition of CBN’s The 700 Club:
KRISTI WATTS (co-host): Terrel says, “I have a chess set with men based on the Crusades. We’ve had the set in our house for over 15 years. My wife now says we should have nothing ‘Muslim’ in our house. I say that it’s just a chess set and is OK. What are your thoughts?”
ROBERTSON: Well, I mean, if it’s the Crusade, the Crusaders are killing the Muslims. [laughs] So what’s the big deal?
WATTS: Yeah.
ROBERTSON: I — you know, nothing says you can’t have something Muslim in your house. You’re not worshipping Allah. This is a clash that took place. Crusaders went to reclaim the holy places from the infidels, from the Muslims that had taken them over. So, I mean, that’s historic. I don’t see anything wrong with that. All right.

Is it strange that there are people as willing to kill Muslims as there are Muslims willing to kill non Muslims? Muslims kill a lot of people world wide in the name of God and their religion. Does one think there will be no blowback from such actions? The majority of Muslims are peaceful but a very significant number are not and they have chosen to make war on the west, as a result, nonspecific generalized speech is going to be found that makes a person seem to dislike all Muslims when it is not the case. I suggest that Cair or a Muslim organization interview Mr. Robertson and get a more definitive answer in regards to his views.
