Some societies such as China do not seem to be troubled by original sin and do not seem to need to bash the devil out of their children. The idea may have come from the Bible, which is a pretty risky source of factual information. So we would have to wonder how people arrived at this conclusion in the first place. In the process of purging children of the devil, teachers also manage to purge out most of the healthy mental and emotional apparatus in the human consciousness. So while they are humiliating, beating and bashing the devil out of children, they are destroying them to the point where there is nothing left but wrecked-out, ruined shells of human beings.
Some parents believe that what teachers are doing to children is both good and honorable.
There are some Christian parents, however, who think the teachers are not working hard enough at beating and bashing the devil out of children, so they have decided to school their children at home so they can beat and bash more often. It seems that Christian children have more original sin than other children. It never occurs to these parents that the four Smith children living next door seem to be normal, decent, good children, who do not require the same kind of constant surveillance and flushing out of the devil, or that the Smith children's parents never seem to have to beat the children or punish them into being good. We have found that most of these Christian parents have a quality of wildness in themselves that they are trying to bring under control through the use of religion. These parents pass this wildness onto their children during the child's early years, in the form of play which overstimulates the child.
