What does one do when a grown child starts insisting that certain things happened in their child hood that didn't happen?

On FB we’re debating the merits of the “Mom of the year” award. As you know, I’m not anti spanking, but I am anti-beating so I didn’t agree with her tactics.
Out of left field my 29 year old daughter made the public claim that one time I beat her for questioning the existence of God! I was like, WTF??! As most of you know I am now agnostic, but when I was raising the kids I was a Christian, but a mild one. Church occasionally, prayers at bed time and at dinner were about the extent of it. It didn’t rule my life. I always questioned the claims that were made in the Bible. I questioned a lot of things, and I would certainly never beat one of the kids for questioning the existence of God, because I questioned it myself.

What is happening here, and why? Anyone have any clue?
