Is it....not?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Thank you, I knew that someone here would affirm that they think it's child abuse.
Are you actually going to tell me that deliberately cutting a spilling the blood of a defenceless child like that ISN'T child abuse?

deliberately cutting a spilling the blood of a defenceless child =/= religion

Is the above not a religious act? and is not intentional harm to a child?

Quote:religion noun
Definition of religion
1 : a personal set or institutionalized system of religious attitudes, beliefs, and practices
2a(1) : the service and worship of God or the supernatural
(2) : commitment or devotion to religious faith or observance
2b : the state of a religious
a nun in her 20th year of religion
3 : a cause, principle, or system of beliefs held to with ardor and faith
The definition doesn't mention harming children. Do you think harming children is essential to religion? If so, then you also agree that raising children with religion is child abuse.

With such misguided advocacy are religious misdeeds perceived as normal.

I have no idea if it's a religious act or not. What is the source of the picture?
Is it typical of religion, in your view?

Is it typical of religion, in your view? Yes, it is a religious act called the Kama Matam, and again that's not what I asked. Now that you know this is a religious act is it intentional harm to a child?
