Please keep in mind that some of the Rev. Foulwell's associates used electordes attached to seats in their sunday school classes to discipline children. This practice was discontinued after a lawsuit was filed. These are two very good examples of how "rational" and caring our "christian" brothers are. They are also two good examples of why these people should be prevented from exercising their influence on the educational process to the exclusion of other more level headed approaches.
