Pat Robertson’s Advice: Don’t Adopt Children, By Peter Olson

OK, so I don’t usually rant, but this one absolutely kills me. I would simply write this guy off as a harmless old crackpot if there weren’t so many people buying into the utterly reprehensible tripe that he dresses up as wholesome Christian advice. Here he dares to speak of children as though they were used cars, with a little dash of xenophobia for extra flavor. Mr. Robertson, the lyrics go like this: “Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world” NOT “Jesus loves the little children, except the weird ones from foreign countries and the ones that have been sexually abused.” What version of the Bible are you reading?
