REGARDING:
“Clearly, as evidenced by all of these comments, Pensacola is full of inbred, child-beating morons. I know this will be hard for all of you gorillas to understand, but it IS POSSIBLE to raise a child without ever laying a finger on them. And if your best reason for beating your children is that your parents did it to you, then you have no reason at all. The real reason is that you sorry puds can’t control your anger, and you end up taking it out on children…..weak, sad, and sickening. Use your words now people”

Everyone commenting here lives in Pensacola?
Everyone commenting here is the result of incest?
Everyone commenting here beats children?
Everyone commenting here is a moron?
Everyone commenting here is a gorilla?
Gorillas beat their children? (I knew chimps sometimes eat them, didn’t know about the beatings, though.)
Children can be raised without human contact?
Everyone who uses corporeal punishment does it out of anger?

David thinking
there may be
other explanations
and philosophies

I did not read any of these comments.
I am only interest in my own on this one.
If you don’t want to read mine thats ok with me.

Obviously this womans parenting in this manor (spanking) should have been
started at 2 and never stopped until the kid knew who was in charge.
That being said I don’t think you should ever use anything more than your
hand.
THAT BEING SAID, ONCE YOU DIDN’T DO YOUR JOB WELL ENOUGH
IN THE BEGINNING, THEN YOU HAVE TO DO ANYTHING YOU HAVE
TO DO TO MAKE YOUR POINT TILL THEY GET IT. You all have seen
that out of control after 12 in any child leads to DEATH, OF YOUR CHILD
OR SOMEONE ELSES, and we all know how many times we would like
to see some young thug get tore up.

FOR THE ABOVE STATED REASONS I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW A WHOLE
LOT MORE ABOUT THIS INCIDENT BEFORE A JUDGEMENT IS MADE.
THIS IS THE PROBLEM NOW DAYS WITH SOCIETY.
LAWS HAVE HAD TO BE MADE BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE ARE BASICALLY
IDIOTS AND NOW WE CAN’T EVEN WHIP OUR OWN CHILDREN WITHOUT
FEAR OF REPRISAL FROM THE LAW.
i HOPE WE LEARN THE TRUTH ON THIS ONE, AND IF THIS LEO WAS
IN THE RIGHT AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN TEACHING THIS KID WHO
WAS IN CHARGE THEN i HOPE SHE WINS, AS THIS CHILDS LIFE IS
HELD IN THE BALANCE.

“All hitting kept to an almost non-existent level”

Is that like being a little bit pregnant?

@Thinker, I am soooo impressed with your credentials. Respectfully, you forgot to mention your background in history and theology. And your Partial Ophan degree from HKU, that blows me away. Beats the heckout of a teaching degree. If the State Attorney has any sense, he will call you as the expert child whatever person witness. After all, I am sure you fought a very tough system to get your honorable discharge.. And changing sheets at the nut house puts you just a couple of notches under Doctor. YOU DA MAN.And when your book proves to be true and of sound reason for a few centuries, I will read it. As far as the bible crontroversy,if the bible is not the word of God,and if we reject the plan of salvation through the blood of Jesus, we will need a plan “B”. (work on it) REMEMBER,,,, WE CAN ONLY BE TRUE ATHIESTS UNTIL WE DIE..

David, there is a difference between translating are pararphrasing. As for as the dark ages and the catholic hierarchy, they did not want people to know what the bible said. Otherwise they would be seen for what they were and the catholic church would have fell with the roman empire, or shortly thereafter. That is why they fought Martin Luther and James Wesley so hard……. Good point though……………………….. I’ll give you the last word.

REGARDING:
“Can I call you David?”

It certainly beats some of the other names I’ve been called.

“Would you go to church and listen to a preacher that never opened his bible? Furthermore, we(including me and you) do not have a license to paraphrase the word of God.”

I’ve sat under the preaching of somewhat strange people at one time or another.
One maintained the scripture was being sarcastic and should be understood to mean the opposite of what was said.
Another said it didn’t matter what the Word said, because he was called to do something contradictory.
Another couldn’t read well enough to know what he was misreading–resulting in some interesting sermons.
Another thought his job was to be God’s cheerleader rather than to feed the sheep.
Most weren’t that bad, but there’ve been some doozies.

And we understand every translation of the Bible is a form of paraphrase–an attempt to make it more understandable to its readers. Languages change over time and aren’t shared. I know people who believe only the King James translation is the Word of God. That’s similar to how the Catholic Church used to insist only the Latin Vulgate was the Word of God, and would kill any who tried to translate it into other languages. That implies all Chinese and Russians have to learn Elizabethan English in order to receive the Word of God. To me, that’s hiding His word and something He frowns upon.

I could be wrong.

AND
“I was making the point that if the devils believe in God, we should believe too”

Understanding–I hope–that we shouldn’t do it BECAUSE the devils do, rather that EVEN they do.

David off on a theological tangent
regarding concepts of proper discipline
and authority as to how to use it

The bible has been translated, edited, and SOLD and PROMOTED by people in POWER through the centuries because it helps keep people confused frightened and easy to manipulate. How can anyone say it is the word of god after all that distortion?

If I wrote a book today and in it, I wrote that it was okay to hit a child with a baton and that my book was divinely inspired, would anyone believe it? Think about that. I’m resting my case right here. You all are capable of seeing truth all by yourselves… without a book…didn’t anyone tell you?
