Savagely Pummeling Idiot Children - A Biblical Mandate -

I know this a hot topic, but Christ has compelled me to start a new thread on this timeless subject.
"He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes*" Proverbs 13:24
*betimes: before the usual or expected time; early.
"A whip for the horse, a bridle for the ass, and a rod for the fool's back." Proverbs 26:3
Needless to say, these two verses lend themselves to one and other. The average child should be soundly thrashed often and severely...but even more so the dim witted child! One set of savage blows merely for being a child...and another set for being an insufferable dullard.
And a True Christian™ father (this does not apply to women, who should never attempt to correct anyone; they are mindless chattel just as children are...and both are subject to the rod) needs little or no provocation to leap into action. Even a seemingly perfect child is surely mired in sin...do you believe for a single second that that rosey cheeked, blue eyed little cherub isn't giving you the finger and mocking you every time you turn your back? Do you honestly believe he isn't groping around in his diaper every chance he gets!? Don't be naive!!
Also, remember that there many different levels of idiocy. When in doubt, remind yourself that ALL children are foolish to a degree...capering about like reefer-crazed midgets, shouting their folly at the top of there lungs, piping shrilly and babbling nonsense...in dire need of correction.
If you ever find yourself in a situation where severe discipline needs to be meted out, and you are without your rod, by all means, improvise! Use the tools God gave you! Any blunt object will do...a pipe wrench, for example.
And failing to find an instrument of punishment suitable for the task at hand, there is no shame in using fists, knees, elbows...and nothing lets a drooling, slack-jawed child know how much you love him/her like a head-butt, kidney punch or roundhouse kick to the face. Glory!
