Today's Battle

Is over at Locusts and Honey, the GLB(but not T) Methodist religious blog. The usual attempt at education. You've seen it all before.

I got there via RMN Blog, the blog of the Reconciling Ministries Network. And in the process I saw in passing an article that caused me to think some very, very, very uncharitable thoughts.

    Q: My 10-year-old son is acting like a girl. I beat him almost every day for this. People tell me he is going to be gay and that it doesn't matter how I beat him since the female hormones will be there because the Lord made him that way. I am planning to send him to his father in Kingston who says he can beat it out of him. What should I do? He is very bright in school.

I really think that if I met this woman, I'd commit mayhem. And wouldn't regret it.

This just makes me furious and want to cry at the same time.  How twisted do you have to be to beat a child near-daily for something you believe god created?  There is no other way to describe this woman than completely evil.
