    I worry about people who don't get how ghawd seems to put a good deal of emphasis on "...Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me."     I think that spanking may be involved, as ghawd seeks to even the scales...  I wonder if there will be any "...go out in the backyard and cut me a switch
