"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. I can love the people who hold false opinions but I don't have to be nice to them."

In late 2006, Robertson claimed to be able to leg press over 2000 lbs as a result of his taking a herbal supplement.
