Now I have heard it all

I was surfing the internet the other day. Reading blogs. I was reading the blog of a man who runs a curriculum company for homeschoolers. He was discussing a group of homeschoolers in Colorado that would not allow his company to show its products because it was not conservative enough. There are some seriously nutty homeschoolers. So I started going to links that he had posted about where this can lead to and found something that goes way beyond nutty homeschoolers. It is called CDD - Christian Domestic Discipline. Here are some excerpts from what I read.


A domestic discipline marriage is one in which one partner in the marriage is given authority over the other, and has the means to back up that authority, usually by spanking.



Domestic discipline is highly individual and private in nature. Each couple must decide for themselves how they will carry out discipline in their own households, but usually it starts with long talks between the couple to establish expectations for their own domestic discipline relationship, responsibility accepted by the dominant partner, and consent given from the submissive one. Rules are generally set down, sometimes written, sometimes spoken, and consequences set. Not all domestic discipline relationships use spanking as the only consequence or even as a consequence at all. Some couples prefer other punishments; such as, writing lines, corner time, and grounding. Some couples pair these other punishments with spanking. Most domestic discipline couples practice some form of spanking, which seems to come in three categories: play spanking, maintenance spanking, and punishment spanking.


A Christian Domestic Discipline marriage is simply a marriage set up according to Biblical standards.Therefore, in a CDD marriage, the husband is the authority of the household. The wife is submissive to her husband as if the Lord Himself was her husband.



This part is really disturbing!
NONCONSENUAL CONSENT
Nonconsensual Consent is what is commonly used in Christian Domestic Discipline marriages.The concept of nonconsensual consent is that consent is given in the beginning for the relationship. Essentially, the wife is giving her husband permission to decide when, where, how, how often, and under what circumstances he may punish her based on the parameters they have agreed upon in their prior discussions.A wife may withdraw or amend consent at any time other than just before, during, or just after punishment.




Now that you know what your wife "REALLY" wants, talk about it, try to understand her, and try to meet her needs, and if she has asked you for the physical, but you just can't bring yourself to do that, well then at LEAST give her some occasional "me man, you woman" stinging swats either in passing, or when she is getting a bit feisty or sassy… you know the kind, the ones that make her go "mmm hmmm he's a man, my man, and he is in control" the "I'm HIS girl…." kind of playful, or warning swats, you can't imagine just how good they make her feel. Oh she will say "ow" feign a pout, or even give you the "what was that for" but deep down she is shivering at your "manliness", and thinking, "hmm I had better watch myself or he may just take me over his knee" and the thought of that causes her to tremble with excitement, anticipation, fear and feelings beyond words.


This is written by a woman in a CDD marriage.
He talks with me throughout the punishment. He asks me "Are you doing ok? This behavior has to stop. Be still. You are doing good, hun." and so on. When he pulls me up, if I am not completely repentant and in tears, I go back OTK. When we are done, I am drawn to his chest and he holds me tight while further lecturing me. I am at peace, I am truly sorry and ready to change, and my only desire is that of pleasing him in all I do. If in a few hours my attitude is back (very rarely does that happen, he can usually tell right away) then it's back otk for more. (by the way, OTK means over the knee)


There are even books (romance books?) about this subject.

This collection of stories follows three moms who are part of Christian Domestic Discipline relationships with their husbands. In the first story, a new mom must learn to take care of herself so that she can give the best possible care to her baby. In the second story, a mom of school-aged children learns time management. And in the third story, a mother of a teenager must learn to be stricter with her daughter. Please note: these stories contain the spanking of adult women.

These men are supposedly trying to love their wives like Christ loves His bride. They discipline their wives for simple things like not cleaning out the cat box. But I see Jesus responding to adultery differently in John 8. He speaks the truth yet shows love and forgiveness. He does not offer condemnation or violence.


"The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group and said to Jesus, "Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?" They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him. But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger. When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her." Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground. At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there. Jesus straightened up and asked her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?" "No one, sir," she said. "Then neither do I condemn you," Jesus declared. "Go now and leave your life of sin."

(Sorry, my brain isn't working)

Good point. :) And yes, this is one of the wackiest things I've ever seen too.

Are you kidding me.

This is disgusting, abusive, ridiculous, controlling, offensive, violent, sinful, unbelievable, evil...

I could keep going, but I think I have made my point.

I am furious.

I have to go for a walk now to calm down and pray for the women who have subjected themselves to this.
