Abuse of power is bad, be it parents, preachers, teachers, politicians, organisations, corporations. But I must admit sometimes I wish I could get bears to eat people!

The god of the old testiment was a fucking asshole.

The bear looking like "Smokey is quite a touch! I have a friend who lives in Israel. She and her husband started one of the first Kibbutz there in the late forties. I sent this to her for her opinion.

Is that the scariest picture of a bear they could find?

Hahah mankind control do not see boundaries

Sounds like a preacher was offended by kids falling asleep while he was preaching (egocentric?) and decided to terrorize the children by telling them a story of how his "God" hates kids. Religious are in denial when it comes to hateful behavior by their god. "God doesn't hate", yet the stories to support their view of discipline are filled with hate! This is all tied up with the paternal archetype of God/god. "Spare the rod, spoil the child!" My father said this in my childhood at least once that I can remember. And not sparing the rod is deep in a child's mind. Maybe they never experienced carporal punishment, that doesn't mean they don't understand the concept of a angry father lashing out at his children. A child is aware of their physical vulnerability with a father much larger then they are. All it takes is a father raising his voice and threatening with physical harm to get the idea across. So "the Bible is always real"? In closing, the cruel, vicious, thoughtless, selfish behavior perpetrated by religious appalls me!

Gross, but god is the best.

Don't fuck with God (but fuck each other, so we get babies. We love babies). The threat with bears is only to make you start at an early age. And don't forget to join the scouts they love to do good deeds.

I have to agree. probably fake news
