I am 1000% for corporal discipline as mandated in the Holy Bible.
Not only do severe, prolonged beatings save your child's soul from eternal hell, they are also a great cardio workout for a stressed out, henpecked father who just needs to unwind after a hard day at the office. I can't speak for any other Christian fathers out there, but I always sleep like a baby after a 45 minute+ child pummeling session.
But what I really want to speak about here is a burden that Jesus has laid upon my heart...these little tykes, these wonderful future Christian soldiers...they don't always get it. Sometimes they lose focus in the midst of a sound thrashing, and they forget that they are being pounded mercilessly for a very good reason...the best reason ever, as a matter of fact: SALVATION!
But it is hard for them to reflect upon their naughtiness and make amends with The Savior when they are laying there unconscious from a blow to the head, amen? Sometimes reviving the child with smelling salts and continuing the beating at a milder pace is warranted, but I find that using personal restraint during discipline is completely unsatisfying.
Getting back to the subject:
The Lord has spoken to my heart, and after much prayer and soul searching, I have decided to go forward with this.
A full fledged
Disciplinary Theme Park, orders of magnitude greater even than Ken Ham's Creation Museum project!
Jesus And I haven't hashed out all the details yet, but raising funds is going to be a biggie, and will be the first order of business.
Just to get the ball rolling though, I will begin construction of a screened-in Bald-Faced Hornet pavilion this weekend. What better way to get unruly brats to reject the world and send them careening into Christ's arms, heart wide open and eyes swollen shut?
Any input on other attractions that should be included in the park?
