Seeing only two groups with a majority against corporal punishment, one by only a slim margin, is certainly depressing…
I wonder if there’s any particular reason why Jewish people are more averse to corporeal punishment than others? Don’t suppose any can offer some insight?
I’d like to see Buddhists and Muslims in this chart!
I’ve never understood disciplining kids with physical violence. If a cop pulled you over for going 10 over, and her first response was to slap you in the face, or put you over their leg and spank your ass, I’d be appalled. I dunno why being a kid would make it any different.
Seeing how incredibly reckless some people drive (risking the lives of others!), I am not sure if I would be against a punch in the face. Maybe not the best example.
It’s worth noting that one can be Jewish and a nonbeliever at the same time.
It wasn’t until my late 20s that I learned how “relaxed” Judaism could be. I hadn’t thought you could be part of a religion yet a nonbeliever at the same time.
There are atheists and theists at my temple. Many people come just to be part of the culture.
