Religious Political Extremist Monitor: Quotes on Women
| "(T)he feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist,
anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their
children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians." -Pat Robertson (The
Washington Post, August 23, 1993) |
| "I know this is painful for the ladies to hear, but if you get married, you have accepted the
headship of a man, your husband. Christ is the head of the household and the husband is
the head of the wife, and that's the way it is, period." -Pat Robertson (Federal News Service,
Sept. 11, 1992, quoting a Robertson newsletter.) |
| "Why are so many marriages falling apart? Why is the divorce rate so high? ...Why is
there such a tragedy in marriage?...Now the basic answer to the basic [problem of
marriages today is a question of leadership. The wife actually makes the husband the head
of the household and she looks to him and she says 'now you pray, and I'm going to pray
for you that the Lord will speak to you." -Pat Robertson (The 700 Club, May 22, 1986.) |
| "(Robertson) chastised women legislators who support no-fault divorce laws that he says
encourage men to split. 'Any woman who votes for no-fault divorce is like a turkey voting
for Thanksgiving,' Robertson said, paraphrasing a conservative commentator." -Pat
Robertson (The State-Record, Columbia, SC, June 28, 1992) |
