Story hereFrom the article:
Robertson, who once said at a faith healing that God could bring a dead baby back to life, continued that perhaps the child would have turned out to be the next Adolf Hitler, and therefore it is better that the womans child is in Heaven rather than becoming a murderer.

A fetus in the womb is so very, very precious that women shouldn't use birth control, shouldn't be allowed to have abortions, and if they do have a miscarriage they should be investigated for possible feticide, but if something happens to a child that is already born, it's basically, 'Meh, could've been Hitler'.

It took millions of human beings to get rid of him. Sorry, Pat, but
What are the odds that this level of outrageous callousness will finally wake up at least some of his sheeple?
