Death penalty for children, cause it says so in the bible

Seriously?  The death penalty for disrespecting your parents?   Well it would be a good way to reduce the population, but how the hell can idiots like this even get on the ballot?  Shouldn't they be put up in a state mental institution?

If these people really want to ban Sharia Law, they have a funny way of showing it.

Isn't it funny how extremely similar Sharia Law and Dominionist Law is?

To quote the late and great George Carlin
"You are pre-born you are fine, if you are pre-school you are fucked".

I wonder if anyone actually ever used that killing your own children for being disrespectful rule. I am sure that by now in those crazier segments of the world we would have surely come across a story about it. my guess is that most parents realize that that passage in the religious texts is a load of horse manure and ignore it. However, given quiverful and other fringe fundamentalist groups, I am surprised we haven't come across it. Surely there must be someone crazy enough to take it literally? Other than this guy of course.

it's likely happened, we just haven't run across it yet.

If you look at it logically, cannibalism has great potential to simultaneously solve our overpopulation and food shortage problems.

This Amazon review is hilarious

Quote
As a former heathen and fornicator, I found myself having four children outside of marriage. I did not think too much of this fact when I was heathenly fornicating away, but then one day, I was secreted away by a group of religious freedom fighters. At first, they thought about burning me at the stake, but then they realized that they did not have a stake big enough to hold me up. So, they decided to download Mr. Fuqua's God's Law on their Kindle, and left me alone for six months with nothing but that book, and some very basic meals. After a couple of months whereby nothing but suicide crossed my mind, I decided to read this book first. And thank you Jesus that I did! First off, I discovered a sure-fire legal way to reduce my children burden. Four kids these days is just way too expensive to deal with. So, I just waited till the two slow ones talked back, and following the rules of this book, I took them to the Court and I executed them. Now, with two decent kids, I was feeling much more comfortable in my life and I had much more time to watch my 700 club specials. Well, a couple of months passed, and I guess I was feeling a bit chippy since I hadn't heathenly fornicated in awhile, when one of my remaining kids accidentally dropped his plate of spaghetti on the floor. Now down to one kid, I decided I should be a bit more careful about using the all powerful God's Law, especially since that last kid was really good on his pee-wee baseball team and who knows what could have happened to him. Well, I know what happened to him, but you know what I mean. I'll end this all by saying that I owe Mr. Fuqua all of the gratitude in the world. His book is the light that will lead this country into a new golden era. I only wish my last child would have lived to have seen this glorious future - I did warn her not to look at me that way again though.
I'd be more sympathetic if people here didn't act like they knew what they were saying when they were saying something very much wrong.

I heard it as "Fuck-ya," as "Fuck ya fucking policies and ya little dog, too."

On topic: why, why, why are so many assholes in a conservative-off competition? It's like they think whoever's most conservative will win, even if their positions are sociopathically insane. I'm reminded of the Grimm fairytale of the three lazy sons, with the one winning claiming he was so lazy that he'd rather hang then lift his arm to cut the rope hanging him.

As if I didn't have enough reasons to hate the Duggars...

Too bad some Christians don't just flat out ignore sections of their holy books, like the rest.
