The Roman Catholic Church: Where spanking came from

Many parents and adults believe that spanking is "time-honored" and use that as an excuse for their abuse within the law. The fact of the matter is that spanking is a fairly new phenomenon towards children in human history. Spanking children is an idolatrous, Catholic teaching that Protestants and Anabaptists have bought into.

It says in Colossians 3:21 KJV:

Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.

This refers to a specific historical context involving pro-spanking encroachment and infiltration into God's Church. Fathers in the Colossian church would often whip their older sons, and spank their daughters. Children and wives are property of men in what was known then as patrias potestas.

The Early Christian churches of God, as a religious entity, prohibited any punishment of children, deeming it kidnapping, which was a capital offense under the Law that Christ pardoned. It was unthinkable for a Hebrew-Christian parent to strike their child.

It says in Revelation 17:1-2

And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked to me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew you unto thee the great whore that sitteth upon many waters. With whom the kings of the earth had committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth had been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. 

"Sitteth upon many waters" has come true, meaning the pro-spanking domain set up by the Roman Catholic Church sits on many waters. The rest of the underlined simply accentuates the point of the first underlined statement - spanking spread far and wide from Rome. The Holy Roman Empire found that getting pagan parents to cease corporal punishment, so it was put on the back burner, then ignored, meaning the church came up with the spanking teaching to cater to pagan customs of beating and punishing children in Europe.

The Anglo-Saxons were horrible towards children, with child rape and whipping children being the norm. When Rome conquered England, the English common law system being created, which was a merger of Anglo-Saxon law and Roman law, with Christian influence that lifted up most of the basic legal tenets of the Bible. Thus, much of the Anglo-Saxon child battering customs were enshrined in a legal system that was then transplanted onto the New World.

However, the United States was not founded on Anglo-Saxon values, but Judeo-Christian values regardless of race or ethnicity. America consists of many groups that must work together, but we must have common ground first, hence the need to promote Judeo-Christian values. Spanking children is not Judeo-Christian values, but Anglo-Saxon values coming from a Roman pulpit. Ultimately, the neglect of children by the Roman Catholic Church caused the pagan idolatry of spanking children to spread.

I am a conservative Christian, and that's how I see parents spanking their children - pure witchcraft. It's something the Roman Catholic Church should have stopped from the get-go, like they should. My Judeo-Christian values call for not provoking children to anger with punishment or controlling attitudes towards children, and so I oppose it wherever it is, and it should not exist anywhere, and if you defend it as a "right", YOU should not exist anywhere - except maybe in a prison cell. Let them BURN in eternal torment that is the lake of fire and burning sulfur! Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!
