Christian Pastor Demands Children Be Punched

[pimpdave]

What do you guys think, should children be punched mercilessly just as this Christian demands? Is this a new doctrine in Christianity? Should America really be referred to as a Christian nation when this is what they have in mind?

"Can I make it any clearer, Dads- the second you see your son dropping the limp wrist, you walk over there and crack that wrist"

Homophobia and child abuse. Dude is about as far from Jesus as you can get.

Just another example in a long list of what is wrong with fundamentalists.

There is a reason the word mental is in fundamentalist.

Apparently Scotty is a fan.

I have no idea what you mean by this. Surely you can accept that it's clear bigotry?

I think he's saying that the voice is not actually that of the pastor. And if it is, why isn't there video?

And where is the "clear bigotry"? That sounds more like advocating violence against children.

He's advocating violence against children that are stepping outside of gender roles for the purpose of preventing them from turning gay (or something equally moronic, I got tired of listening about halfway through). That's pretty bigoted.

So disagreeing with homosexuality is bigoted?

I think I understand the first point, but it does seem to be the voice of the pastor, rather than someone else.

I'd say that the bigotry lies in the idea that homosexuality can be beaten out of children. Indeed that homosexuality is the fault of fathers who don't hit their kids.

Should Christianity be kept out of schools (along with all other religion)? Due to this new movement within the Christian church to punch children all the time, should we allow that kind of violence in our schools?

There is no movement within Christian churches to punch children. If that video is of the pastor, that's himself speaking, not other people.

Yes.

You disagree with Christianity. Doesn't that make you a bigot?

Yes.

Wait, does that mean it's bigotry to refuse a gay man to have sex with our butts if they want it? Because I disagree with homosexuality for myself, but I don't give a shit what other people do.

No more than me disagreeing with any other philosophy.

Yes, if a gay man wants to put his weiner up your butt you are a bigot if you refuse him, you fucking homophobe.

So your positions aren't bigoted, but if someone holds a different position than you, that person is a bigot?

I don't think that's a problem you need concern yourself over.

1. My positions aren't bigoted
2. If you disagree with me, that doesn't necessarily make you a bigot
3. "Disagreeing" with homosexuality is just as bigoted as "disagreeing" with interracial marriage

[pimpdave]

Guys, guys, can we please get back on topic?

What are we going to do about this apparent epidemic of punching ripping through the Christian church?

There's nothing wrong with disagreeing with another person's lifestyle.

There is no epidemic of punching children in churches.

Now, if you want to talk about REAL epidemics, we could talk about the several cases of violence at Occupy "protests" yesterday. We could also talk about the epidemic of oppression of women in Muslim countries.

[pimpdave]

you fucking homophobe.

Well, at least you're only calling me names, and not throwing punches, the way the Christian church says you should.

So you'd say that none of the following statements are bigoted, then?

"I disagree with marriage between Christians and non-Christians".

"I disagree with gender equality".

"I disagree with the idea that whites aren't superior to other races".

Could you point out which of those is bigoted, which of those is not bigoted, and in what way you would define bigotry?

Maybe we should punch people that are pro-punching.
