“Hitting is not in the chinuch arsenal and is against the Torah (with you have openly stated you also don’t agree with)“
That pretty much did not happen except a minority view
“That has been my contention since I jumped into this thread”
That was certainly not evidenced by your posts
“So I have been successful in defending the truth of our Torah.”
Torah wasn’t being argued so there was nothing to defend it from.
But if you somehow believe that you have accomplished something other than presenting a sadly not so accurate Joseph style overly aggressive view of what the Torah really said about hitting, than you surely have reason to be happy.
