Dad bears a striking resemblance to Moses:

I feel bad for the surviving kids.

[Thumpalumpacus]

Because you can't be moral unless you believe in God...

I feel bad for the surviving kids.  

yeah, and it could be argued that the deceased kids died in self-defense.

Um,

Mickey Mouse isn't real.  And even giving them a pass on that, Mickey, as a FUCKING MOUSE, is not a son of Adam and cannot be united in Christian marriage to Minnie because he does not have an immortal soul.

It would be an ABOMINATION to sham marriage Mickey Mouse in a church.


Jesus Fucking Christ, why the FUCK can't these fucking fundies get even basic Christianity 101 shit correct in the fucking first place ???

For the same reason they are not atheists.  It is that they have shit for brains.

The details are coming out:

NEW HARTFORD, N.Y. (AP) — Two teenage brothers were brutally beaten in church — one fatally — in an effort by their parents, sister and other members to get them to confess their sins, police said Wednesday in a case involving what neighbors described as an insular congregation that didn't let its children out to play.

Police said spiritual "counseling" at the Word of Life church turned into an hours-long attack Sunday night in which Lucas Leonard, 19, and his 17-year-old brother, Christopher, were pummeled with fists, authorities said. They suffered injuries to the abdomen, genitals, back and thighs. Eventually, Lucas stopped breathing and relatives took him early Monday to a hospital, where he died, police said. Authorities went to the church and found his younger brother, who was hospitalized in serious condition.

I know, I know, these loving followers of Christ weren't TrueChristians. Couldn't be! Nor was the Spanish Inquisition for that matter.

Genital beatings ?

Seems kinda sick, even to me.

Often, stupidity and ignorance is the root of evil.

Yup. Waiting to hear about the demons...

The victim probably wanted to do normal late-teen/proto-adult things and that was a sure sign of demonic possession.

wonder how religious the prosecutor is maybe thats why they were only charged with manslaughter  those sneaky demons , poor parents were victims themselves   hopefully they dont just get probation .  they should be charged with murder dont know why they wouldnt be how is beating someone to death not intentional ?

[AFTT47]

They probably did not intend to kill the kid, only drive the "demons" out. They're fucking idiots though and managed to kill him. It's manslaughter unless it can be shown they intended to kill. That said, these boneheads are obviously dangerous and need to be put away so they don't hurt others.
