It takes a long. time. when talking to some of these people to get them to see Pearl for who he is and not for just someone who promotes spanking so therefore must be right.

Hurm, the world is more annoyed with them for being way too harsh on kids. Plus, folks here are conservative and can show that not only can one be conservative and not spank, but they can be conservative and not agree with folks like Pearl and have kids that are not in motorcycle gangs. And are actually still Christian too.
I saw this is a worthy risk if it can plant the seeds of doubt in these folks so they can see it not as persecution, but as trying to be compassionate towards kids, but that can be a later step.

The first step can be exposing these people for the cruel frauds they are.
