The Evangelical family’s twisted obsession with corporal punishment.

archive link: https://archive.is/H0FZY

from Talia Lavin, who’s high on my list of “anything she writes is worth reading” journalists. an excerpt from her upcoming book Wild Faith: How the Christian Right Is Taking Over America.

hopefully the title made it obvious, but a big ol’ content warning for explicit and heartbreaking details about child abuse and endangerment.
