Again, wasn't Laura there more recently than you, Tom?
When corporal punishment was common in community it was considered outrageous is the world; the press had a field day with it. The point being that it was not brought in from a world which practised it still....but was very much a Jesus Fellowship policy. In fact I have video of Noel talking about "spare the rod spoil the child".
