i am by no stretch saying i agree with what he said (in part or whole) but i wont say i disagree (in part or whole) and i certainly wouldnt qualify him as insane for thinking/believing/saying it.
No, he's very, very deep into wacko land. He claims his prayers have the ability to steer hurricanes, and he's full of hateful, wacko stuff.
Read up on his quotes:
http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Pat_Robertson
"[Planned Parenthood] is teaching kids to fornicate, teaching people to have adultery, every kind of bestiality, homosexuality, lesbianism – everything that the Bible condemns."
"The Antichrist is probably a Jew alive in Israel today."
"We're importing Hinduism into America. The whole thought of your karma, of meditation, of the fact that there's no end of life and there's this endless wheel of life, this is all Hinduism. Chanting too. Many of those chants are to Hindu Gods -- Vishnu, Hare Krishna. The origin of it is all demonic. We can't let that stuff come into America. We've got the best defense, if you will -- a good offense."
"You say you're supposed to be nice to the Episcopalians and the Presbyterians and the Methodists and this, that, and the other thing. Nonsense, I don't have to be nice to the spirit of the Antichrist."
"If I could just get a nuclear device inside Foggy Bottom, I think that's the answer." (talking about the United States State Department)
That's some pretty crazy, hateful things IMO
