I know of an Assembly of God minister who "spanked" his wife in front of their children when she was out of line. But he's a kook. I've never encountered anyone in our organization who openly believes or teaches something like that. I thought you were implying that you had encountered someone who teaches it, like the Islamic Dr. Phil.
Some people are abusive and stupid in private, but they don't instruct others in their stupidity publicly.

There was an Apostolic pastor (maybe 15 or 20 years ago?) who was advocating that men administer corporal punishment to their wives. My cousin and her husband went to his church. When my uncle (her dad) found out about it, he had a "little" talk with both the son-in-law and possibly the so-called pastor (I'm not sure if he actually talked to the pastor or not). The family is based out of Tulsa, but the incident might have happened in Georgia. I would have to ask my mom for the specific details.

Did anyone say that? If that is the case, then isn't the original post doing the same thing regarding muslims?
Switch to halogen... it's brighter.

This is really sick. How arrogant of those men to assume they are simply right about everything and must beat their wives to force them to behave the way they want them to.
