Here's a candidate for Top 10 Idiots: "Christian" Pastor Beat Boy

http://www.statesman.com/metrostate/content/metro/thompson/1203thompson_update.html

12-year-old boy testified Wednesday that a South Austin pastor beat him a hundred times with two sticks � until the boy's shirt was bloody � because the child was goofing off in Bible class.

3. This isn't the first time...

this has happened. And it probably won't be the last. And, lest we forget, this sort of abuse isn't practiced only by fundie "Christians."

Some of us, however, suspect there may be a special level of hell for those who do this in God's name.
