I seriously hope you guys are joking.

"they used a tree branch to beat unconscious an 11-year-old"

I don\'t think you understand luckee, true they beat him unconscious, but he MISBEHAVED.  If that doesn\'t deserve a massive beating then I just don\'t know where the world is headed to, but i don\'t like it.  No sir, not at all.

i can understand a slap across the face but beating an 11 year old with a tree branch as punishment is just sick .

Misbehaving or not, no one has a right to discipline a child with a beating other than the parents.  So the kid seemed like he wasn\'t taking his Bible versus seriously; approach it in a different way.  The kid is not going to learn anything through a beating.  This kind of news is just utterly shocking, maybe even beyond shocking.

I think it\'s wrong, and it\'s a wrong that CANNOT be justified through religion.

I know you were being sarcastic.  I was just stating my opinion, that\'s all.  :)

I used the religion angle b/c we are supposed to trust men of the clothe, but with this and everything else how can a person.

I go to church every Sunday and I have to say my faith has been shaken with all the news about pervert priests. I will not stop being a Catholic but I will be more distrustful of the powers that be.

Newton needs to be taught to little kiddies.
The whole "God" thing is a massive waste of time and money.

Please don\'t do this, this wasn\'t about religion vs. reality..blah blah. Just something I found disturbing. It\'s not time for a 18page religion debate again. Especially clowd never actually left like he said and he would just ramble for 7 of those pages aggrivating ppl with nonesense.

One time I went to church and some old man tried to touch me in strange places. Then I beat him with a baseball bat and left him to bleed to death, only then realising it was the priest and I was the one touching myself. :eek:

Next Christmas I\'ll just stay at home.

Theres nothing like hearing a few hymns and eating the body of christ to inspire a spirited bout of masturbation..

Ya gotta wonder, How could you beat someone for a hour and a half? That would be pretty tiring.
