If You whip children with Sticks you are a child abuser and deserve to be in jail.

Sick Christian fucks and their obsessions with 'sparing the rod'. They are just evil sadists and sexual fuck ups. .

I have no objections to this post.

Oh save it. My dad did not spare the rod and is an atheist.

Polaris, there is a distinct difference. There is no atheist doctrine that encourages beating children, whereas your Bible is quite clear on the subject. Also, your argument is a logical fallacy.

That being said, this thread is a bit "Rawr, I have nothing to say but that I don't like it!" There really is not much here to go off of. A story in the news? A talking point? Have you got anything, glumpy?

It's just another example of religious fundamentalists ignoring scientific research. This time, pretty much all modern psychology says hitting children is wrong but the love to say "we know better." Just like scientists say creationism is a piece of shit, but they don't listen to it. Just like psychology says homosexuality is natural, but they say we can be cured. Scientists say over population is a big problem but religious fundamentalists tend to encourage their followers to have big families with lots of children. Ignoring science is spreading into conservative politics; guess what's happening with global warming? Same thing; scientists say it's happening, idiots say 'we know better!'

He was loosing an arguement in another thread and thought he could redeem himself by vilifing the whole of Christianity, (and appearently all of human history except for this last western generation.) To try and save face. He artfully (like a hacksaw) set up the point of contention then even started another thread to seperate this effort from the failed one. All in an effort to appeal to popular morality, and to segergate himself from those who are not apart of his social order. I believe That was the "rawr" bit you identified. cause he Rawr-ed me.

I can not say with 100% accuracy, but am fairly sure that scripture does not say anything about beating children. I was quite a handful as a child and I believe the whippings I got were the only thing that kept me in line and taught me respect for others.
