Cartoons: propaganda versus the giant gorilla

[Deepthunk]

beaten to death by their own parents because they wanted to leave the church   > smh <
Not that they rejected christian beliefs, they just wanted to branch out.  Poor guys.
And people say religion does no harm.   This hits a little close to home for me.

Thanks Deepthunk, for digging up more of the story.

yeah it's just that, there's no report on whether they wanted to leave the entire religion or just that church, but when I was twelve I got hit in the head with a bottle for being the only kid in that town that didn't believe in religion so given the level of violence they displayed it seems as though its more likely they were questioning their parents religious beliefs as a whole and that's what caused the explosion of violence.

though it is possible they did just want to change churches, as I pointed out before those small churches are desperate not too loose followers because their so small that every donated dollar counts. The pastor may have been looking forward too and counting on the days those two kids would get jobs and start donating, and therefor lit the fire and/or fanned the flames of rage at the them leaving. I note that as is so often the case with these kinds of incidents that the family has been charged but the church leaders have not.
