Hahaha that's hilarious :Laughingoutloud: :jest:

Pffft whatever Read on and you'll see that I posted passages that appear to oppose as well You called me a liar I warned you about it And you've called me a liar again You can piss off for all I care Don't like people who make false accusations Your actually the liar Satan is the father of lies

Oil Oil Oil Was it ever really about anything else I doubt it

What does spanking them actually achieve that other forms of punishment don't?

I wrote them in the OP but if you missed them here they are... Bible verses that appear to support corporal punishment Proverbs 13:24 Whoever spares the rod hates their children, but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline them. Proverbs 22:15 Folly is bound up in the heart...

Physical punishment used to be popular against criminals. But most societies don't do that anymore. When then should we be doing it to kids who are just still learning and very fragile. In some sports bad athletes will miss some matches if they behave badly on the field. We can apply that to...

You know I thought the same thing but surprisingly a google search brought up this. It cites the Australian institute of family studies I agree. I don't see corporal punishment achieving anything more that other forms of punishment do

In the op I presented bible verses that appear to support corporal punishment and others that appear to oppose it. I was leaning towards yes. But after reading what people have to say and thinking about it more deeply I changed my mind. I find the arguments for it not very convincing If you...

Well there are passages in the old testament that appear to support corporal punishment. And there are passages in the new testement that appear to oppose corporal punishment. As Christians we abide by the new testement.

I was a firm yes to begin with but I've found your arguments and that of others to be very unconvincing so I've voted no

Can you elaborate? Maybe you can suggest an alternative punishment for a naughty child

I think that's taking it out of context. I dont see the similarity. We're talking about corporal punishment not the police or the military. Two totally different issues

I'm not sure which claim your referring to because there was actually 4 claims being made. 1st claim. Corporal punishment has been banned in many countries. This is true 2nd claim. Corporal punishment is bad for the mental heath of the child. I agree there is no compelling evidence for this...

Corporal punishment defenition The use of physical force to discipline children A child doesn't know where the boundaries are. It is natural for them to push the boundaries to learn where they sit. That's why kids are naughty and that's why parents often have to discipline them in some way or...

1- So that you experience a similar pain you put your sister through 2- So that you will think twice next time before doing something like that You will learn from it and become a better person for it hopefully. That's the idea of punishment. And about the theme park, you have plenty of time in...

Changed my vote back to "yes" after realizing how arrogant, hateful and prideful the "no" crowd really are. Pride is Satans favourite sin, he pulls you away from God, your friends and your family

That's just silly. I know plenty of Muslims and they are good people. Ive been to a Muslim wedding. To say their all servants of the devil is very uneducated. There are good and bad people in all races and religions

Fair enough

@The Barbarian Where did you read that Richard Dawkins is an agnostic now? I looked into it and my sources said he is certainly still an atheist
