Why the need to beat children? WHY THE NEED TO BEAT DISABLED CHILDREN?

You monsters deserve to perish in the hell of your own imagining.

This is all horrific, but maybe the worst part is that Rep. Jett is justifying corporal punishment for biblical reasons.



"He went on to call it a “violation of scripture,” citing Proverbs 22:15 to back up his case. Jett read aloud: “Folly is bound up in the heart of a child, but the rod of discipline drives it far from him,” reports Oklahoma Voice".

@Barbramon1 The rottenness that is these people. They want to use the Old Testament to justify abusing children, forgetting that Jesus brought them the New Testament to replace it. Religious hacks and hypocrites.

@thepoliticalcat They are cherry picking their favorite parts, the ones that satisfy their primitive hatred and bloodlust.
I am an atheist, raised Lutheran, but I still like many teachings of Jesus.
"I give you a new commandment: love one another. Just as I have loved you, you must also love one another" (John 13:34) "

@Barbramon1 I'm an atheist too. The Catholic church made me that way. I was determined to learn the Bible better than my teachers so I could argue with them. Ugh.

@thepoliticalcat My mom made me attend confirmation classes. I was not very popular with the pastor. He was not used to being questioned.
I was engaged to a Catholic and was told that we couldn't marry in the church unless I took classes and converted. I was young and went along with it, but the priest giving the classes ran away with a nun. There was a huge scandal, and the church forgot about me. I never converted and got married as a heathen. 😁
