This goes under: Atheists say the Darndest things

 A post by Dark Lady on CARM
DL put sup a post every day, ever single day about how evil God is in the OT. He rakes God over coals every day and never responds to the arguments Christians make. So every day is a new day about how evil God is. When she doesn't do it (almost never) I start worrying about her. This time it's hilarious becuase come up with the dopiest argument. She found what is essentially an S/m site that claims to be Chrsitain so is blaming Christianity on what she understands to be abuse. The funny thing is, I think it's abuse too but at least it's concentual but she doesn't seem understand what kind of site she found.

 This is a quote from a christian website (http://www.christiandomesticdiscipline.com/home.html) that advocates husbands punishing their wives. It uses all the usual verses to back this up (Eph. 5:22-24, Eph. 5:25-29, Titus 2:5, Acts 5:29).

darklady:

"Most CDD marriages do use spanking, generally for serious offences, such as the "Four D's" (Disobedience, Disrespect, Dishonesty, or Dangerous [as in dangerous choices... reckless driving, disobeying doctor's orders, etc]). Some CDD marriages also use non-corporal disciplines, such as writing lines, or the temporary forfeiture of a favourite privilege"

This website is advocating spousal abuse.

Does one person have the right to hit another? No, they don't. Ever.
Does the husband have the right to punish the wife for anything at all? Of course he does not.
This is emotional and physical abuse.

But in all seriousness, if some egghead Christian man in my church tried this, it would lead to seriously applied church discipline. The kind the Bible talks about--not this hooey on the website.

It would not be tolerated, period. He would probably be asked to leave the church and we would help the wife shelter away from him if it continued.

This morality is not rooted in the Bible but in modern secular ethics which forbids spousal abuse. Christians adopt secular morality (which in some cases they must) and then boast about how wonderful their Christian morality is! I say give the credit to whom it is due: atheists.

Jag says something silly and Wendy says to antoher chriasin female poster "nomail" she says "HEY NO Email look what he said" so Jag says:

Hey, noemail.....

Wendy:

NJ just claimed Biblical church discipline is not rooted in Christianity. Oh, and apparently the Bible allows for spousal abuse, too.

The plot thickens. LOL

You need to read my posts more carefully. I referred to our secular society's forbidding the abuse of women. The Bible writers categorized women as chattel who might be impregnated against their wills.

Anyway, how's all this going for you, Wend? Are you converting people who read your posts to your religion?

wait a minute! DL starts out trying to tag this S/M fetish group (Or "discipline"Or whatever) and that get stomped on so then you try to argue that secular ethics is better though it's been established that the original site is not Christian and they not basing it on the bible.

you are still trying to Blame Christiantiiy for soemthing that essentually both sides admit is not christian, you say:

"This morality is not rooted in the Bible but in modern secular ethics which forbids spousal abuse. Christians adopt secular morality (which in some cases they must) and then boast about how wonderful their Christian morality is! I say give the credit to whom it is due: atheists."

I think you need to call for help. maybe with nets.
