[eave God and religion to the churches. There, you can believe it all you want and go in depth. Schools would no more endorse a single religion than hey would throw out Math or Science studies.]
Your in school right now, your just not listening to the teacher.
Back in the good ol days teachers could beat the tar out of you.
Spare the rod spoil the child.
You cant hit your kids today.

Regardless of minor spankings, many interpreted this to mean "Beat the fucking hell out of your child" in ways that are simply horrific. Hence why it stopped.
Hey, just because you're into S&M doesn't mean everyone will be.
Ya know, if you taught your kid respect rather than fear, to care instead of claim superiority over the less fortunate, and to QUESTION everything) maybe you wouldnt need to beat him.
And they have a sad record of deaths and psychiatric consultations due to traumas and disorders. And by the way, Robohan, Salomon's son and first not to be spared the rod, was a tyrant that was almost lynched by his own people. I will bear that in mind too.
"My old man used to use a meat board or the old orange hotwheel tracks." "Back in the good ol days teachers could beat the tar out of you.
Now they have no power."
Beat t' tar out of you? Luxury!
In my day, teachers would slice you in two wit' rusty breadknife, bury you in lime filled pits and dance on y' mouldering corpse singing hymns to the choir invisible! An' that were just f' having a blunt pencil!

Violence breeds violence. My dad figured it would be okay if he just spanked me hard enough to cause pain. It wasn't, and at around age 10, I learned to fight back harder than most people would imagine possible for a scrawny little guy like me. Now that I've outgrown him, I find it increasingly hard to respect him; he's just not intimidating anymore, and it felt like that was all there was to him.
It's interesting to notice that spanking was abolished because one teacher in England killed his student because he lost control of the situation. I mean, he solved the problem, not the way he intended to.
Well, since he's obviously into it... Let's find him and beat the shit out of him.
Better yet, let's not - And make him WISH for what might have been.
Any teacher -- or person in general -- who tries to "punish" my brother is going to have the shit kicked out of them.
"PHYSICAL BEATINGS ARE BAD. *gutkick* SEE? THAT HURTS LIKE A FUCKING BITCH, DOESN'T IT?"
And I assure you, if teacher ever struck me, I'd likely hit them right back. And if they attempted to force me to do something humiliating as a punishment, I'd just walk out. That's motherfucking abuse, and I will not stand for it.
My Mom and my aunt went to a Catholic school. Mom says the nuns were as rotten as they are in the movies- one made a kid who laghed in class bend over before she beat the hell out of his back with a 3-sided ruler until he was bleeding. Needless to say, my cousins, my sister and I never went near a parochial school when we were growing up.
The monastic life seems to be a form of usually-consensual insanity to me... you know, although the nuns I've known have mostly been decent people (the Bad Habit does seem to be a thing of the past, probably because so many Catholic schools are staffed with lay teachers), I do think by and large the convent culture spawned a long tradition of bitter, self-hating women who turned their anger and frustration on their students.
I can see, for the truly devout, a period of temporary devotion, maybe five years, in a monastery or convent. But please, someone let the nuns die out and their lay sisters serve the way the nuns always wanted to but couldn't.

“Now they have no power.”
“Spare the rod spoil the child.”
“You cant hit your kids today.”
“Another NWO idea no doubt.”
“My old man used to use a meat board or the old orange hotwheel tracks.”
“I think you been”
