You know why your supposed to spank your Kids and cause them physical Pain when they Sin?
Because God knows that Hell is a place of Immense Pain and Agony that Never ends.
And Showing them that sin = Punishment - and punishment = Pain is probably the most Important thing anyone can teach their kids.
Thank God for our Savior.

sin = parents beat them
and parents beat them = pain
and pain = sadism and cruelty
Yeah, that teaches them about the fundie version of God, alright!
If you are going to keep beating your kids to teach them Pain=God basically, I would sleep with one eye open if I were you. Someone needs to warn the neighbors too, because I see a serial killer in the making.
Hopefully someone calls DCF before its too late.
The thing is that spanking is temporary and can hardly be compared to being thrown into a fiery oven which burns forever.
In other words, WORST ANALOGY EVER!!!
@Horsefeaters, technically, that's only done with things that are holy. According to our good friend "Immense Pain", "Agony", "Never", "Showing", "Punishment" and "Important" are all (in spelling) as holy as God Himself.
=D
Further in the thread, watchwoman says:
" I wonder if the fact that the father is a pastor has anything to do with it. I can see the liberal court deciding to "make an example" out of the "hateful, intolerant Christian". You can bet we'll be seeing more and more of this type of thing.

I like how they manage to shoehorn their persecution complex just everywhere.
This has been bugging me for a while now.
If Hell is punishment for our sins on Earth, how is it supposed to be punishment ?
I mean, you're already dead. If people don't reincarnate and you can never escape Hell, what's the point of learning your lesson?
Isn't God just being a sadist douche by punishing us for something we can no longer correct and putting us somewhere where we can't even make such actions?
Wouldn't it be more efficient to send good people to Heaven and simply let bad people die and stop existing?
"And Showing them that sin = Punishment"
Apparently, punishing people is a sin. Equals signs work in both directions, you know.
Or beating your kids into behaving themselves will produce adults unable to behave themselves without the threat of a smackdown from the big invisible parent in the sky. Actually no, scratch that. That's ridiculous, I mean, you were beaten as a child and you turned out okay, right ???
Also in the thread:
"Quote:
The pastor's 21-year-old daughter, Amber, stood outside with a sign that read, "Thank you for spanking me dad" as a showing of support for her father."
Ohhh.... I'm going to a special Hell.
Yep. God loves his children so much that he created a place that makes Dachau look like Six Flags to throw them into so that they experience the most unimaginable agonizing eternal torment for even the most miniscule of crimes! What a wonderful deity!
But hey, I'm just impressed that you fundies are actually merciful enough to just spank your kids and not tie them to stakes and stone them to death as the book of Deuteronomy and the "God of Love" would have you do.
Okay...pain with a purpose I can see...AS A LAST RESORT. When all else fails, yes, spank. But you did wrong, so PAIN ON YOU teaches nothing other than to fear you, and just not misbehave when you're around.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
