“The number of children who are born subsequent to a first abortion with handicaps has increased dramatically. Why? Because when you abort the first born of any, nature takes its vengeance on the subsequent children,” said Marshall, a Republican.
“In the Old Testament, the first born of every being, animal and man, was dedicated to the Lord. There’s a special punishment Christians would suggest.”

That's insulting to women who have had abortions, mothers of disabled children, and the disabled children themselves.

My urge to give this guy a beatdown is rising.

Aside from my everlasting loathing of this douchebag, I did find this bit interesting.

Former Alaska governor Sarah Palin has been pushing back against high-profile figures and entities who have been attacking people with disabilities. Will she speak out against someone in her own party?

All I can say is that if she does, she'll actually gain a little bit of respect from me.

I know firsthand this to be utter bullshit.  Or at least in one case I'm familiar with personally, an abortion during a first pregnancy had no ill effects on later pregnancies. 

All this is is more scare tactics from the lunatic fundie fringe.

What the fuck did the children do??

Shit like this is why even if these people's notion of God were real, he ought to be defied on principle.

This sounds like a bad joke from South Park.

Surprised he didn't bring up these passages.

Exodus 12:29

1 Samuel 25:38?
I'd be more sympathetic if people here didn't act like they knew what they were saying when they were saying something very much wrong.

My mom had two miscarriages before she had me, am I being punished because God decided to abort my mom's pregnancies?
From international relations to religious rivalries, from marriage to athlete's foot, whatever the problem a fundy's first solution is usually violence.

If this claim were true, then we'd expect lower rates of deformity and disability among children in states where abortion was illegal, or at least very difficult to get access to.

Congratulation, you make your god look like an ass. I'll ignore the part where there is no scientific findings that correlates disability with abortion. 
That may be the single gayest thing I have ever read on this board. Or the old one. ;)

Why would god punish the children?  I can sort of understand punishing the parents, but not the kid.

And as a disabled person I'd like to add fuck you to the idiot who said this shit.

How dare you punish your unborn baby by having an abortion for something that wasn't its fault or because of a mistake you made!  Now God will have justice by punishing your unborn baby for something that wasn't its fault or because of a mistake you made!

. . . Wait.

Didn't Yahweh kill King David's son because the kid's mom was married to another man when David forced her into bed?

God's a dick; this is old news.

Sounds like the typical biblical justice. Beat the victim, punish those that had nothing to do with an event, damn everything to eternal torment for things beyond their control....
