Why are Christians so obsessed with Beating Children??

[Creed of Heresy]

In a 100 years it will be a mirical that we all do not speak one form of chineese or another, because the hippy children we are raising now will simply not be able to compete with the armies of focoused, acute and sharp minds that the chineese are producing by the billions. They will be the ones dictating foreign policies and the over all direction in which this world will work.

All because douche bag parents now are afraid to be identified as having 'failed' because they choose to activaly disipline their kids.

You gotta be fucking kidding me.

China sends its children here to our universities for a reason, dude; our universities are superior to theirs. Can't compete with the armies of... *chuckles darkly* Can't compete with armies?



Those are all vehicles that were used by Iraqi forces trying to flee Kuwait to Iraq in 1991 after we obliterated them over the course of maybe two months. They had the forth largest and best-financed military in the world, with numbers to match our own.

We barely lost a hundred men, a few tanks, and some aircraft.

They lost their ability to wage war.

Don't tell me we can't compete with China. Numbers don't mean shit when your opponent can obliterate your massed troops with impunity, and when you can't supply that army because it's too enormous to supply. China's got next to no fleet; we have, what, a dozen carrier groups, each one carrying enough firepower to all but remove an entire developing country off the map; enough firepower to reduce just about every building to rubble and every man, woman, and child to paste. The Chinese won't have the ability to field such power for a very long time. And given how China's economic forecast is suddenly not as rosy as it was before, and all it takes is us electing a president and politicians who actually substantially raise taxes on the rich to get our deficit in line, for some reason I am dubious of the supposed threat China poses.

Now, meanwhile, in our country, we're all being raised as "hippies" because we're finally getting with the fucking program as a society. Europe is more hippy-ish than we are, that's for fucking sure, and yet, gee, they're pretty much two steps ahead of us socially and economically, ESPECIALLY in education.

So for one thing, your whiny claim is bullshit based on a personal opinion of yours and NOT steeped in any kind of real world fact...which is not surprising...

For another thing, would you actually prefer we continue to stagnate as a culture while China advances in other ways? Or would you rather our society and culture get its shit together, stop finding ways to hate one another and instead find reasons to work with one another, and achieve prosperity while meanwhile 1.5 billion Chinese people live under a mantle of censorship, restriction of personal liberties, ultranationalistic dogma, and limitation of access to information nationwide?

Smacking your kids around does not make your kids grow up better. It just teaches them that violence is a proper response to something. Discipline doesn't come from application of force; ask anyone who has enlisted in the military about that. They don't NEED to beat the shit out of you because they make you do it to yourself; they make you focus, they make you push yourself, they make you understand the need for teamwork and cooperation. Yes, they also emphasize the removal of an enemy violently, but that is because that is the direction in which the military points those who enlist; that education could be used for anything.

You don't need to resort to physical violence to instill discipline. It just requires you to have a fucking backbone, do your damn job as the guiding authority figure, and learn to have some fucking restraint. If you really need to discipline your kids, you can do the job of getting them in line verbally or by giving them a reason to not act up that does NOT involve physical pain.

So stop stroking off to the right to beat your kid, Drich, it's fucking creepy.
