Republican says handicapped are God's Punishment

[faethor]

"Thursday, Virginia State Delegate Bob Marshall (R) spoke at a press conference against state funding for Planned Parenthood. He blasted the organization for supporting a women’s right to choose, saying that God punishes women for abortions by giving them disabled children:

“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"



*** Seriously Republican legislators why not worry about Jobs instead wombs?​

Actually it says that every first born BELONGS to the Lord. Abraham's obedience to God was support for the practice. Later in the history of Israel it was made illegal to sacrifice children and several changes seem to have come into he text of the Torah around that time including the substitution in the story of the ram for Isaac and the general principle that the life of the families first born male could be "redeemed" by the sacrifice of a lamb instead.
