"just beat them. With a rod, like it tells me to in the bible."
Stone them instead, like your Babble also recommends, preferably before the age of accountability. There ya go, problem solved. You get the satisfaction of "raising your kid right" and the kid gets a free ticket into heaven. Works out beautifully for everyone, wouldn't you agree?
But if God knew they wouldn't believe since the beginning of time, isn't He just being an ass by bringing someone into the world to be beaten, not believe in Him, and then go to Hell?
It seems like a load of douchebaggery.
@werewolf: He's referring to the old "spare the rod, spoil the child" line. Proverbs 13:24 specifically but the sentiment is also found at Proverbs 22:15, 23:13, 23:14 and 29:15 if you're interested.
Soooo.....lemme get this straight. Its not ok to kill a 150 cell blastocyst in a woman's womb, even if she is raped, but it IS ok to beat or stone your child if they dont believe your bullshit?
Nice set of morals ya got there champ.
Our Grandmother on her death-bed, handed us the family bible and said "This is very important. Always keep this close to hand. You never know when you are going to run out of toilet paper".
See then looked at the priest and whispered "Za-een ba takhad" (go fuck yourself) then passed on with a smile on her face.
How 'bout I beat you with my rod?
And make you gag on it too....
Unless you're Poe. Then, well...still wanna? :3
@Michael:
Always good to find new and interesting ways to curse people out. *remembers that phrase for later*
"Well, Ma and Pa, I didn't believe in this bible before, but now that you're abusing me because it told you to do so, I totally agree. Come on, hit me again!"
If I see you aproaching any child with a rod you better pray to you god and hope he listens because I will beat the living shit outta you.
Also, Fuck you and Die In A Fire.
Children who refuse to obey their parents must be executed.
If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them: Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place; And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard. And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear. -- Deuteronomy 21:18-21
