You mean obedience don't you? I believe one of the reasons religious morons defend the hitting of children so much is because they hate having their ideas questioned and since their is no way to legitimate prove their ideas are true ( Though science is bit by bit proving everything in the bible is bullshit ) they therefore resort to hitting them whenever they try it. Oh and that whole respect argument is a load of bullshit, respect has to be a two way deal, what they're talking about is obedience, these people are 'obeying' their elders because they're afraid they'll get hit, that's all there is to it.

It's because that pussy muslim arab kenyan president supports it!

yeah it wasn't 'actual' kidnapping, I don't dispute that, but it was child abuse enough, what kind of shit heads do that to a perfectly nice kid? Especially when you consider how on this very forum people were bitching about what assholes children are.

I really don't see how anyone unless they are total lunatics can justify that kind of treatment.

Wow! That was fast! 

*Sits back with popcorn and waits for the Christians*

That's exactly right, the last thing you want when it comes to a persons life being in danger is for them to be put into a false sense of security that goes for anyone regardless of them being a woman, you don't want to 'trick' anyone into thinking they can be special forces or for that matter whether they can defend themselves in general. Really basic example but if for instance female doctors were placed on tests that were somehow easier than what men would go through not only would it be unfair to both genders but patients would be totally fucked especially if the sole purpose of the new tests were to put more female doctors in the hospital wing.

People who talk about gender equality and try to fix the problem by simply flooding a profession with numbers don't live in the real world, the bar shouldn't be lowered, it should be kept exactly the same, though sometimes depending on the job I'd argue it may even be a good idea to put the women through more because of how differently they'd be treated out in the real world so they'd be better prepared but that's just me.

I totally agree with people here, particularly with the military, bullets and bombs definitely don't discriminate.

Fuck you and fuck the pope.

That'd be a serious case because he's trying to hurt an animal, I'd pull the twat away in that situation even if he decided to kick and scream lol but like I said, my point is you should only interfere when there's a genuine danger etc. or they're harming someone/something else, anything more is just people trying to enforce their own trivial bullshit. Point is though, you should also explain why that's a bad thing, because otherwise they won't realise, if an adult is just slap happy they won't ever realise what they're doing wrong and will just get utterly terrified and hate their own parents as they get older.

Don't go onto the internet? Stop using your phone so much? Classic complaints and I'm sitting there thinking "Well how the fuck do you know they're playing games all day? They could be researching cryptocurrencies!" my parents always think I'm just sitting at a computer doing fuck all then I start lecturing them about economics and they don't like that trolololool

There's 'physical' force and then there's just blatantly hitting a child, if it was a serious situation I'd restrain them just like you would an adult if they were trying to pick a fight with another, but the amazing thing is, is when you hear about parents hitting a child over disobedience, so if it was over some stupid thing like not cleaning a room ( which some crazy lunatics genuinely think is okay ) then maybe it's better to explain why it's a good idea to clean it instead of just telling them to.

That said, we all have different standards, my room can end up a mess at times especially if I'm doing lots of work, I think the way people react as if it's going to be the end of the fucking world if it's not taken care of is ridiculous though. I can understand getting physical if it was a serious thing ( Hitting like I said is a no go just like with adults ) but I think some people just need to get their fucking priorities straight, as long as your child isn't trying to kill, hurt or steal then that's all you can ask for as far as I'm concerned.

Teaching them about fraud comes later when they're better at talking with you but basically I'm completely against this whole obey or die attitude that a lot of control freak parents seem to have and as usual it's something very consistently found in religion.

In all seriousness the funny thing is I see these parents who complain about their children all the time etc. and I'm afraid the majority of the problem really is that parents genuinely don't talk to their children but tell their children what they can and can't do. Parents who use spanking etc. are enforcing obedience, not discipline, the reason being is because that's the only way they can enforce their bullshit in the household only parents who don't have a leg to stand on use assault to get their point across.

I have a big family that of course also has lots of children and when they ever get together there's hardly any drama, children mimic their parents, so if they're acting like total assholes guess who's fault it is? My favourite and most personal ones are parents who blame Video Games etc. for the deaths or them committing murder when those stupid assholes are just sitting in a room watching television because they can't be bothered going to check on their own family.

Gee that's an awful lot of rage and emotion in one paragraph, did your parents hit you when you were young?

Ah the old "My parents did that to me and I didn't grow up badly" lololololol by the way, let's not call it 'discipline' please, it's assault, if it was done towards an adult it would be considered assault.

Congratulations you just justified assault on a child.

As long as they start a fire under a pyre with some evil heathens attached to it it's all okay!

Oh I totally remember Metal Fatigue, very interesting game, it also had layers, underground and air

And with that one sentence he has lost all credibility, how dare Satoshi make a digital currency that increases in value over time and has a fixed supply!

Incredibly sad, he's clearly just another religious prick that uses an invisible god to justify violence against other people.

The collapse is beginning guys, looks like my estimate at Q1 was right, remains to be seen though whether it will be a full collapse or the Euro zone will keep limping on, expect other central banks to get desperate.

There's actually been quite a bit of demanding going on for a programming section at least, but this is a Bitcoin forum after all so I'd understand there only being an off topic.

I wouldn't mind if everyone was followers of the righteous god Lathander just stop using gods as an excuse to kill everyone lol
