1) on the main page, i saw this "Godly Tips on How to Punish and Discipline Your Christian Child". first off it's a crime now to even hit and abuse your own child or even someone else's child. the fact on cruel punishment towards kids of being hit or abused, like my fiance was from his adoptive mother, is wrongful and also can cause perminent injury and possiblly death depending on what one does to hurt the child. i was a local EMA with the local squad and i hated seeing little kids having bruses and complete trama to their bodies. it makes me really sick of what kind of people that are out there who punishes their kid in such a way it leads to injuries. i don't care if it's a slap on their ass or whatever. it's still a crime to hit or injure a kid period. the way i see for punishment is not hurting them in anyway possible, more on the line of taking away their personal things they love and adore. that will usually work. or make them sit on time out, etc.

2) "Yoga: A Religion For Sex Addicts" that is false big time. yoga is an asian excerise for flexiblity, not for sex. my mom's chineese friend from D.C. does yoga and he's not a sexist. he's a very honorable man and friendly in that nature. he does multible excerises every morning before he heads to work, which yoga is involved. think a head of time before you come to conclusions about anything.

3) "God Doesn't Want Jews Anywhere Near His Home!" this statement makes you an anti-jew. they may have different belifs in their religion, but doesn't give anyone a path to live or go. people live where they choose to period. god has no say in anything with this matter. people have rights.

personally i think you need to rethink on everything on how the world has became over the years and to realize how things are now and not back in the day. most of the population are pure hypocrites, sinners (as you would refer to them and also people who say they believe in god's way or etc.), non-forgiving church goers out there. there's some out there who are true to their religion and keep to what their religion is gone by, example, the 10 commandments. personally i know of 1 true christian family who are true to what they believe. people have the right to choose their own path as i so choosen mine as being a wiccian. i think that for you for being a pastor, you have the wrong idea on how things should be. what ever happened to love thy neighbor, forgive others, etc.????? sorry, but i had to say my mind.

You say that God does not allow Jews into space because this and that blah blah blah....no man shouldn't even go into space. There's a verse in Isaiah which says, Man will try to make his home among the stars, but I will throw them down from there." What do you say about that? Does it say Jews aren't allowed in space!? no! It says all men will be thrown down!

How do you think us christians got our faith? Through the Jews of course! Jesus came to earth as a Jew. So now that you hate Jews, you must even hate Christ since he was a Jew on earth! Why do you think that Jews are the smartest and most financially stable people in the world? Because they are blessed by God! And because of your jealousy, you can't stand them at all! The Holocaust did not occur because Christ punished them, the Jews called it upon them selves when Christ was in front of Pontius Pilate and they shouted, "Let his blood pour on our children's, children's children!"

As the Pastor of your church you have no right to promote hatred towards Jews, and if you do, you shouldn't be a pastor.

Godly Tips on How to Punish and Beat Your Christian Child

There is nothing even remotely "Godly" about the evil trickery used to get a child to come to you. The mental abuse and verbal abuse that is suggested is repulsive. If ever a prayer were to be answered, is that when you are judged, God will punish those who have written and followed such evil recommendations against children.

You deserve to rot in hell, you rotten child abusing miscreants!

My advice to you is to educate yourself about the catholic faith. Catholics believe in universal church. You don't understand religion.

Probably the thing that would most keep my blood pressure in check and help me get an edge on my family history of women dying of heart trouble in their 50's, would be to live close to God and nature in a cabin in the NC mountains. Since I am a subservient wife, and dedicated mother, I put my needs last, and unfortunately, I live in Charleston, SC, which has a terrible heat index and fast pace I would not wish on a dog. Since I have the highest Lipoprotein (a) cholesterol that they have literally ever seen at the Medical University of SC, I am grateful for the roll that yoga plays in helping me meditate away stress. Now, certainly, prayer also helps. But, I tend to think out of the box. And, you would be amazed at how many times I have prayed more clearly due to doing yoga, due to being able to clear my head and focus.

I was raised in the Baptist church, and baptized at age 7 in Anderson, SC. Now that I'm 56, I have had time to think out of the Baptist box and discover that unlike the male mindset of many Baptist, I believe that God gave me a body to house my soul, and the means to learn how to take care of it. So prayer is my rudder. Yoga is but one of my paddles. Faith is my boat. Living longer to do be productive for the goodness of God is my destination goal. I have never practiced Yoga in the nude. I have, however, had to get into really loose clothing to be able to stretch my God given muscles, which is what God intended them to do. The average person that practices Yoga, does not embrace it as a religion.

I would just about bet that the authors of this ridiculous view of Yoga, have a Body Mass Index number that is at least 10% above normal, that they can't go a month without eating fast food, and couldn't go on a life saving vegetarian diet if their own children's lives depended on it. I'm incredioulous that the authors of this subject don't have better things to do than to argue when yoga came into being. Who cares. This country has bigger fish to fry these days. There is a word for those who think that opinions and ideas different from their own have no merit. That word is arrogance.

I'm incredulous that I found your link by going to whitehouse.org. This alone tells me that the wrong person is in the White House.

Thanks!

I am a student at Emerson College in Boston, Massachusetts. Currently, I am working on an article about the hellhouse phenomenon for a local Boston newspaper. It is an unbiased piece regarding the hellhouse events; I wish to present all sides of the arguments revolving around hellhouses today. According to my research so far, it seems there are no hellhouses along the East Coast, and certainly not within the Boston area. I would like to expose as many people as possible to what I regard as an extremely interesting, and often controversial, practice.

I am writing to you in the hopes that you, or anyone else involved in your organization, would be willing to answer some questions, either over the phone or, more conveniently, over email. I am especially interested in your perspectives on the purpose of hellhouses as---according to your website-- they seem unique.

Any information you can give me, in any form, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,

Beth Steidle - Emerson University

It was linked from a messageboard and at first glance I thought it was an article written for comedic purposes.

After a bit more reading I realized that this was a very christian oriented site and everything about this article was serious.

I agree, beating your child WILL get him/her to listen. It WILL make them obedient. And you can be sure their "sins" will be far and few between.

And beating your kid that senseless WILL make him anything you want but normal.

Odds are if you hit your kid like that, it will traumatize him so much he'll have huge issues later in life.

But guess what. If anyone catches you beating your kid like that, or anyone sees marks on your kid as a result of your "godly beatings," they'll either physically stop you themselves or call the police on you in wich case you'd be found as an unfit parent and your kids taken from you.

Discipline like this isn't so cut and dry like you guys would like to believe.

The fact is, as I stated earlier in this letter, is your kid will have serious issues with you and himself later in life as a result. It's abuse; it's agains the law.

Not only that, but if you can hit your child THAT hard THAT many times as described on your site, as well as lure them to you in such a deceptive way I think you should be ashamed and it's obvious there's something wrong with you, the parent. You should also be ashamed of doing it in the Lord's name. Your child will never trust you.

You should seek serious help before you ruin your life doing it, and your kids'. Surely they will rebell against you as they get older for being so abusive unless they are that mentally messed up.

I guarantee if your Christian peers saw you do this they would have a problem in a big way with it. If I saw it first hand, I would likely step in between you and the child and if not that, i'd be dialing the police for child abuse.

Your guys' article is not only outrageously and blantantly abusive physically, but shameful, sinful, illegal, and medievil.

I feel sorry for you Pastor. And quite frankly i'm surprised you're still a practicing Pastor unless you've kept your personal identity hidden. In wich case you'd obviously be hiding how you raise your kids. In any case, you're hiding something.

And I would pray for forgiveness because if you don't and you goto heaven or judgement day comes first, you'll have to answer to it. God sees everything. Remember that.

You're no better than a drunk, redneck wife beater. Infact worse, because you do it in the name of Christians, the Lord, Parenting, and the saddest fact of all, you think you're doing the right thing.

You are an affront to not only what Christians, the Lord, and what the teachings of God stand for, but to all humanity, ethics, morals, and yourself.

Good day Pastor.

Ok, Translate this-

Your all a bunch of empty minded, ignorant, selfish, self centered, ethnocentristic, dumbasses.

"use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, perform and display " This.

I don't mind religion, just keep to yourselfs. and i know you didn't contact me, I just found your site, and I'm honestly just so amused, and luaghing my ass of right now at how stupid and retarded you people are.

Oh, I'm Christian, and my best friend is part jewish, SO EAT SHIT WHEN YOU SAY THAT JEWS ARE POISONING SOCIETY. JESUS WAS JEWISH YOU STUPID IDIOTS. So the founder of your religion was actually starting Christianity to poison society; meaning you are poisoning society, you better organize a mass suicide with the rest of your special friends and rid yourselves from society.

GET A LIFE

Good Day to you.
