\"\"<\/p>\n

I was feeling sentimental yesterday when I read Anne Sokol’s truncated but articulate review <\/a>of Tedd Tripp’s bait-and-switch book Shepherding A Child’s Heart<\/em>. Sokol did good work. She’s right, of course, about Tripp. And the<\/a> comments<\/a> that followed were oh-so-reminiscent<\/a> of five years ago<\/a> when I was also couch-bound with a sick child and a sick self arguing with spanking-as-sacrament fundies<\/a>. Good times.<\/p>\n

Someday I’ll find the “letters” somebody from that site wrote my employer telling me to be fired<\/a> because of what I said. Someday. I always do.<\/p>\n

But today? Oh today. . . . the site publisher had to be yin<\/a> to Sokol’s yang. He just couldn’t resist. And since most recovering fundies will simply respond with “tl;dr<\/a>,” I will condense it for you:<\/p>\n

kids are\u00a0inferior<\/em>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Cute, Blumer. Real cute. And yeah, you defend it with the conservative quip of “politically incorrect,” but that’s not it. It’s biblically <\/em>incorrect<\/a>. It’s downright pagan<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And before you and your cohorts jump on me with the endless cumin-mincing<\/a> insults, let me just say that this is just too perfect an unwitting condensation of all that is wrong with fundamentalist parenting. It has roots, but not in Scripture.<\/p>\n

I explain it more thoroughly in another, much older post<\/a>. But for now, I’ll just say, there’s no Jesus in this. None.<\/p>\n

No wonder they wanted me fired.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
