this attitude is why parents of austistic kids gotta deal with so much bullshit. even without disabilities some people are naturally just shittier than others, its why teh same parents can have good kids and kids who are little shits.
Even though a kid spends like 75% of their time away from their parents in education systems and community environments. But lets totally ignore that so we can disregard any responsibility in raising a healthy community. Go society.
Very true. Exactly why the bible (God) tells parents to raise their children IN the Lord. Of which includes attributes like respect, among a host of others.
Deuteronomy 21:18 - 21:21
Leviticus 20:9
Matthew 15:4
Mark 7:9 - 7:10
Proverbs 20:20
Exodus 21:17
most of them are pretty straight forward about death.
This is the problem with America, in general. People gain the tiniest bit of information about a subject, and immediately they think they know everything. You're completely ignorant of the context of those verses you've quoted! Grandmagif is correct, the bible doesn't say to kill a disobedient child. It DOES say to discipline the child, to correct errant behavior, to raise them properly in the statutes and commandments of God.
theres not even context needed most of those are very straightforwardly written... i mean like the proverbs one was a bit more poetic and subject to interpretation but most are straightforward. I've been to bible school, i went to church for over a decade before choosing lack of religion, I've read the bible, and i understand how many words have wiggle room due to multiple translations. those are very straightforward texts. nearly all religious books have entries like these, and while as civilized people we are able to recognize we shouldn't literally our children just because an old book says to in many places, we use small chunks of that book to stifle nearly every liberty folks hold dear.
the fun part of this country is that i am allowed to decide for myself whether right or wrong is based on a book or based on whether i am hurting anyone and what my gut tells me! even if the lovely conservatives are trying to bring about christian sharia law.
