So apparently there is a group of christians out there who not just domestically abuse their wives but they encourage others do the same and call it "spanking" or "Christian Domestic Discipline" (CDD for short.

I read this article and this guy sounds off the wall nuts to me...

Religions attract and keep nuts like black holes. Sadly, unlike black holes, they don't merely keep the nutbaggery in-house.

@soundwave I'd be hesitant to blame this on religion. People just suck, some of them happen to use religion as an excuse for them sucking, others dont.

@freemo I'm not blaming religion for creating this guy, but I am sure that religion tends to give nutjobs a safe space to be crazy and allow, or even encourage their wackiness. Religion claims to be the panacea for everything including mental illness, and they tend to misdiagnose batshit behaviour as "holiness".

@soundwave Yea, religion can be a way for a crazy person to justify their actions. They will always find a way though.

@freemo
True. There is a sicko named Roosh V who advocates rape culture, but it's not from a religious justification. He just likes raping women and thinks all men should be allowed to do it.
