So that's how they get cavities; it's the work of those damn demons!
Ok, well, he didn't exactly say that, but it does sound like something he would say - he is known say or make outrageous claims. You know, like how he's against the new Hate Crimes Bill and ready to fight it?
Yeah, let's not forget about the whole killing of evil dictators like Hugo Chavez.
Yep, according to him:
"The noose has tightened around the neck of Christians."
Uh-huh, and it's all Barack Obama's fault too. That damn Anti-Christ!
The claim about the demonic candy was actually made by in a blog written by Kimberly Daniels (a Black woman) which was posted on Robertson's website. The post itself has since been reedited on Robertson's site, but can be read in it's original content here. Which is kinda funny because it served as a warning for Christians to forego the celebration of Halloween; something I'm sure Robertson is down with, unlike the new Hate Crimes Bill of course.

So yeah, I realize that some of you probably still believe this stuff to this day and refuse to take your kids out trick or treating.

And because you do, you now have to tell your family that RiPPa schooled you to some other shit - obviously before reading this post you were clueless.
