According to the Message Bible, "the Word became flesh and blood and moved into the neighborhood."

Well, ****, property values just plummeted.

COLE CAMP, Mo. (AP) — A 4-year-old girl died after being dunked in an icy pond and beaten by two neighbors who claimed it was necessary to remove a “demon,” a Missouri sheriff said Tuesday.

Ethan Mast, 35, and Kourtney Aumen, 21, are charged with second-degree murder and other offenses. Both are jailed without bond and don’t yet have attorneys, according to court records.

“Based on what I know, I think this could be some kind of honest-to-goodness religious-type episode,” Benton County Sheriff Eric Knox said in a phone interview. The suspects and the victimized family belonged to the same church, but Knox declined to name the church or its denomination.

Deputies were called around 1 a.m. Sunday to a rural home near the town of Cole Camp and found the 4-year-old wrapped in a blanket on a bedroom floor. A probable cause statement from Sgt. Chris Wilson said the girl was already dead and had “severe purple bruising” over her body, along with ruptured blisters.

Knox said the girl’s parents also had been beaten along with a 2-year-old child. An infant son of the couple was apparently unharmed. The mother, 28-year-old Mary Mast, and the toddler are hospitalized. Their conditions weren’t immediately available. The father of the children, James Mast, did not require hospitalization.

Despite having the same last names, Mary and James Mast are not related to Ethan Mast, Knox said.

Ethan Mast and Aumen live across the road from the family. James Mast told investigators that the beatings had occurred over several days and that he and his wife observed them but were told they would be beaten or shot if they tried to intervene.

Earlier this month, I started attending a secular/agnostic AA. You admit your life is unmanageable, yes, but the Secular 12 steps basically say "you made this mess, and with a little help, you have the power to clean it up and move forward."

The Humanist 12 Steps? Those are pretty good.

Girl, your grandmother was a Baptist. If you want to wear your pentagram t-shirt/necklace on Instagram, just go ahead and do it.

Jesus: But Dad, I don't want to stay with Mary and Joseph this weekend!
God: You know the drill. You can live with me most of the time, but you spend Christmas and Easter with them.
Jesus: Christmas and WHAT?
God: What?
