There is so much wrong with this picture. Where do I start?
The God who loves us all unconditionally needs to be petty and spank us when we do something naughty and wrong.
Hitting a beehive is naughty. Seems like it would be stupid, and the bees themselves will do the punishment.
Jesus, not God, is doing the spanking. Is Jesus a human or God? Ok, ok, I have heard the explanation. But that’s why the book uses the word “Lord” and not “God,” muddling things a bit.
Did the artist pick a girl so Jesus does not have to spank a boy with his pants down. Was the artist a Catholic priest?
Spanking is portrayed as something acceptable. Hey, Jesus does it! This makes it look like child abuse is a godly thing.
It tells children that if you’re sick, you probably are naughty or did something really bad. If you are very sick, you must deserve it. If you are a child with cancer, meningitis, a terrible viral infection or a birth defect, shame on you. Pay for your naughtiness.
Books like this create the power structure of religion by brainwashing its youngest members, those who are innocently born into it, and keep them confused and laden with guilt for life. After all, that’s where new members are created, from the pool of descendants.
To be fair, this appears to be coming from a free love incest cult.

Here is another post on incest.
We like to talk about radical Islam! Here is some really radical Christianity for you. Of course, Islamists always distance themselves from radical Islam, and Christians will vehemently distance themselves from cults like this.
And now I’ll quickly forget I poked around in these sites.
YUP…in “furious agreement” with your own sentiments//thoughts….AND disgust-!!!
NOT THAT WE DO….but IF we were to accept “at face value”, the new testament stories (purportedly) relating the various activities of the “historical” Jesus….they just DO NOT “accord” with THIS crap–!!
We’ve all probably “copped” at least SOME of the “gospel” stories….from my (admittedly pretty dim by now–!!) recollection…when unwell ppl approached (or were taken to) J.C.—there was NO mention of being naughty//needing punishment—!!
(much less any need for ANYONE to have their pants “lowered” for same to be administered–!!)
Two quotes for you Norbert….& all who comprise the “Norbertista ‘universe’ “…..
(1) ” Give me a child until he is seven, & I shall give you the man” (the loathsome boast of the zealot who, through the brainwashing of children, perpetuates “the faith”–!!!)
But on a more personally satisfying note….ESPECIALLY after the sullying effect of the ROT espoused by “true believers” as above…Norbert’s post….
(2) “Thank god I’m an atheist—!!!”
Cheers….Ray.
Thanks, Ray. I can always count on you for an honest comment!
Why the trousers down? some sick shit going on there.
Oh, yes, some very sick shit going down. I actually was very reluctant to post this. But then again, I didn’t write the booklet. It does exist. Some people in this country do show this to their children. It’s real.
Check my book now out, WE SPANKED GOD; Mike Tovar
Hi, Norbert, and friends via Norbert,
Michael, here, in Pennsylvania, with more time to read your blog; the links were shocking, indeed; but, the children shudder more than we. Note, Norbert, a few minutes ago, I cut-and-pasted onto my here-to-fore mostly blank website an essay entitled, AN EXPOSE’ OF ERROR OF CHRISTIAN FUNDAMENTALIST FANATICISM. The website is We Spanked God.org , hosted by SiteSell, Ken Evoy’s website company in Quebec. Jesus’ (real) peace to you, Norbert et al
