Over the last ten years, the number of states that have banned spanking have more than tripled. Some 60 nations have banned this biblical form of child discipline. But why?

Biblical character definitions are far different than that definition used by humanists and permissive nanny statists. We will watch the character of nations unravel, but how do Christians proceed? Should Christians stay out of nations that ban parenting and discipline?
