North Carolina Baptist pastor urges parents to 'punch' girlish sons
Sean Harris says: 'Dads, the second you see your son dropping the limp
wrist, you walk over there and crack that wrist'
The pastor of a Baptist church in North Carolina had some advice for parents
during his Sunday sermon this week: beat your children if they start to behave
differently from their gender.
Sean Harris, senior pastor of Berean Baptist Church in Fayettesville, said to his congregation:
'Can I make it any clearer? Dads, the second you see your son dropping the limp wrist, you
walk over there and crack that wrist. Man up. Give him a good punch. Ok? You are not going
to act like that. You were made by God to be a male and you are going to be a male.'
Harris suggested similar treatment of girls not behaving what he considers to be
feminine enough.
'When your daughter starts acting to Butch you reign her in. And you say, “Oh, no, sweetheart.
You can play sports. Play them to the glory of God. But sometimes you are going to act like a
girl and walk like a girl and talk like a girl and smell like a girl and that means you are going to
be beautiful. You are going to be attractive. You are going to dress yourself up.'
Harris said parents are 'authorized' to behave this way. 'I just gave you a special dispensation this
morning to do that,' he said.
