Religion is strange fruit. It grows best underground.
When you're persecuted you become stronger as a group because it reinforces the us/them mentality and it becomes us against the world. You're much less likely to abandon your group.
The idea that beating children is an acceptable form of discipline is not uncommon, especially in asian communities. It's an awful practice but it definitely isn't limited to biblical teachings although any attempt to spread this sort of practice is disgusting.
