Designs,
That figures from a lot of perspectives. The fundies have been taught (by Proverbs) that beating your child will save him from the devil (hell), just as the Borg taught us, albeit from sheol. I'm glad I ignored that very bad admonition. The scripture in Proverbs is one of the bricks in my theist wall that I analyzed, evaluated and then removed on my way to atheism.
it looks as if the gb are blundering around and really showing themselves up for the buffoons they are.
all the stupidity about tight trousers is laughable and if the general public were to see these selfmportant cult leaders blabbing this stuff then the last shred of their credibility would be destroyed.........perhaps.. the wbt$ seem to have dug themselves into a deep pit of no escape with their lies, new light(tm), paedophile protection and all the other nauseating peripherals they have.. we also suspect that the wbt$ have their spies here because they are either predictable or get ideas form forums like this.. so!
are you listening watchtower(r)?
What can they do to get on the track? Just make certain that they lay on it just in advance of a speeding train.

Simon and Talesin, ditto. A number of recent studies suggest that harsh corporal punishment permanently damages the gray matter in children, especially those in the 5 - 9 year age group. It is thought to impact the childrens' abilities to make critical decisions and to behave socially as well. It needs to end, and it is yet more rational, science based evidence that the bible is nonsense and not in any manner inspired.
Just now out, your initial response was based on your own personal emotional opinons. I suggested in trying to help you that a better understanding of the working agreement between the players and the NFL management would enable you to speak more intelligently about it. Your second response suggested an entrenched, mis-placed pride with more emotions attached. Your third response is a WTF moment which makes no sense whatsoever. I can help you but you have to let me. You have a sparse posting history, and yet you felt strongly enough to post on this OP. Emotions can be a good thing, but I would suggest that you do some homework the next time you think about posting. Ratchet your emotions down about 6 levels and 'listen' to what I'm saying. I'm trying to help you but you have to let me.

Peterson has been suspended for the season, and it is almost a certainly he will appeal. He hasn't lost his job, but ask him. I don't need to re-read your post. Your post was an emotional opinion not based on the facts, and my reference to the NFL player policy was to enable you to speak more intelligently about the topic, of which you are yet to show you are capable.

Please read the 2014 NFL Personal Conduct Policy. They have suspended Peterson for the rest of the season; they haven't taken his job. Under the 2014 policy, which all players agree to follow, these types of behaviors are specifically covered, as are the potential disciplinary actions the NFL may take. You can feel what you want to feel, but playing in the NFL is all about marketing and image, and it is their right to make it so. It is a privilege, not a right, and the rewards are huge. So are the potential risks, including having your personal behavior monitored/punished. Is that because it may impact the NFL's image? Of course, and there is not one thing wrong with that.
That's what the players agreed to follow; the issue with Peterson is whether Goodell over-stepped the arbitration agreement.

Goodell, based on what a lot of talking heads are saying, is sending a strong message primarily because he was viewed as vastly under-acting in the Ray Rice case. It seems a bit draconian to a lot, but I agree with Goodell's 3 major points: a. Peterson is a lot bigger; b. Peterson used the tree branch on the child on several occasions (I believe he plead guility to the assault); and c. Peterson saw nothing wrong in 'whooping' his child in such manner.
Peterson will appeal the year long suspension and will likely get some reprieve. Goodell will take any lumps from the appeal's decision considering it a PR and statement 'win' that he viewed Peterson's actions in the strongest manner possible. Ray Rice's actions deserved much more than an initial 2 game suspension. Peterson is likely paying, in some ways, for Rice's actions and Goodells inactions.
Hopefully these incidents will lead to a cultural change; the NFL has a PR commercial right now with a lot of the star players in it making comments that such behaviors are always wrong. It's about time.

FTS,
I'm straight. My poison of choice is female, but I can see why you would think otherwise. I have spent most of my time on this site supporting gays and lesbians; if someone would have asked me 1 1/2 years ago what I would spend my time on this site doing, I would have never guessed that it primarily would be in support of gays and lesbians. But it is a noble cause.
If I liked boys I would be very proud of it. I like girls. Hot girls. Beautiful girls. Smart girls! I've had a lot of fun in the process (and wouldn't change a lot of things), but relationship longevity and I aren't acquaintences.

Thanks FTS,
These accounts should make us all thankful for what we have, which is freedom of choice in such an important area of life. Not that some of us are going to do any better! I have a bad picker (some would say - including me - that it is because I am extremely shallow and make decisions based on my eyes and other body parts distanced from my brain!). Thanks again for sharing.

Chris,
You created this OP; as others have stated, what did you expect the outcome to be? To narcissistically influience others by showing off your wisdom and knowledge? You weren't asking a question or seeking input. You were making a statement. NASA discovery proves bible is scientifically accurate, followed by a lot of one sided factoids. The responses are not what you expected and they certainly are not what you desired. That's life. I wish you well; come back soon or hang around. And learn.
