No, that's rape of a married woman, an affront to her husband. Are you implying that unmarried women can be raped at will? Who is there to complain? Daddy?
Why would you conclude such a stupid thing?
The only implication to rape is verse 25.
You are assuming to lay hold of of woman results only in rape. But it’s not, under any circumstance. Unless the man forces himself sexually upon her.
But we know what happens to a man who forces himself on a woman. He alone is sentenced to death.
Girls could be betrothed at an early age, and were for the most part under the jurisdiction of the parents, mainly father, or elder brother, until they were married. They didn’t just wander around. It was a completely different culture to nowadays. Unfortunately you don’t seem to appreciate that. You seem to think ancient times were like modern times.

The only true things you said here is that "no man understands everything"
So a theist does not believe in God? :rolleyes:
OK , I'll use your argument. "while no man understand everything, an atheist, by dint of designation understands the concept of God well enough to maintain his/her unbelief in Him. Or Her, which is it?
Yes.
Because for an atheist, there is no God, and he understands it from that perspective.
If there is no God, one cannot believe.
It is you who is behind the veil, which was lifted a long time ago by men and women of reason.
Like who?
No, start by questioning things which cannot be proven to be true. Faith is not knowledge, it is belief!
That is dumb.
You assume you know what is true by thinking you can prove it to be true. But if you are averse to the truth as you are, your conclusions will always be wrong.
So you disagree with scripture?
No. I agree with scripture
“Thou shalt not kill”
It is you and your like-minds that disagree with scripture
At least atheists see women as equals.
What do you mean by “equals”?
Before you judge atheists, clean up your own back yard.
It doesn’t take a particularly clean backyard to work atheists out. Observing their wicked traits is not a spiritual awakening. It is a trait that clearly expresses it self at certain times. Otherwise you can’t tell unless you know
Your nasty back yard is well identified in the "The skeptics Annotated Bible". Your dismissal of that major moral analysis of biblical violent injustice only shows your ignorance of the atheist perspective. It is impossible for your male God to exist except in the mind of men. Hubris!!!!!!
What is nasty about God killing evil lineages to stop them from creating anymore?
It is impossible for your male God to exist except in the mind of men. Hubris!!!!!!
That atheism!
You can’t go any further than that.
Scripture is your reality. Without scripture you have no reality. Pink Unicorns do not exist for real in my reality. Without scripture they would exist in your reality. Historically, belief without scripture is called "mythology"
The age of reason.
We are living in the application of “The age of reason” right now.
Murder, mayhem, cancel, abominations, etc…. sanctioned

We all have, Jan.
Unless you think that accusations alone constitutes evidence, then nobody has.
Baseless accusations is all you’ve pedalled.
And it's obvious that you don't care to change because you don't think there's anything wrong with you. And that's on you, not us. We have all taken time, effort and swallowed a lot of disgust in trying to show you, but you refuse to accept it. There is really nothing more we can do for you.
Aw!!! Poor you :(
:D

It's a conspiracy!
It’s not clever enough to be a conspiracy.
It’s just the standard of wickedness.
Sanctioned murder, rape, robberies, lies, etc..
It’s all out in the open
And that's a conversation I can only hope you never, ever, EVER get to have with a loved one, Jan.
What a dumb response!
You could at least attempt to answer a question
Given the whole section deals with laws regarding marrital and sexual misconduct, sex and rape, why do you think that particular passage is interpreted by all except you and Tiassa and misogynists and rape denialists to mean rape, Jan?
It’s interpreted by evil people, who hate God, and God’s creation. They have no love, so lying to serve their delusion is nothing to them. You should know.
Do you think the passage is indicating holding her in place for a BBQ?
No. It implies holding her in a way that is sexual. Have you ever been held by a man in a sexual manner, but didn’t get raped (serious question)?
The only reason the "damsel" in 28 is now stoned to death is because she is not married or betrothed. She is only owned by her father.
Exactly.
If she was married, she’d be committing adultery, which is an abomination. The act is a spiritual transgression which is passed on to her father, and generations to come. Just goes to show how fallen we have become in this age.
No money had exchanged hands for her until she is raped.
No. If she was raped, she would still be innocent. No spiritual transgression.
She liked being held by this man, and was party to it. So much so she had sex with him.
Have you ever been in that position?
He lay hold of her and and 'lie with her'.. He wasn't holding onto her for a hug..
Why not?
Have ever hugged before having sex?
Laying hold of her clearly implies holding her down and does not imply or suggest her consent.
Maybe that is yours and some others experience, but some women do give consent to rough sex, which may well include being held down. But you already know that. So what is your actual reason to think that verse implies rape?
She is sold to her rapist. The extent to which you try to twist this to excuse her rape.. Is frankly astonishing.
This just shows you don’t understand that culture. You seem to think those societies are like today’s society. You think you can use your current level of understanding to judge ancient cultures.
Most astonishing is what you also seem to miss about the entire passage detailing various scenarios. The crime is not against her so much as it is against the man who owns her.
You don’t get the culture, because you are viewing it entirely from an atheist, woke, radical-leftist perspective. Your arrogance can’t allow you understand why the culture is like the way it is

Wait, you think that because Tiassa enabled you to this extent, that Tiassa is your friend and on your side?
Tiassa commented on your current, dumb behaviour. Thinking your dumbness was a performance because he “knows your smarter than this”. I asked what made him think you were performing. So I’m just pointing out to him that you’re not performing. This is what you’re actually about.
Tiassa is going to have to live with having enabled you and to allow you to believe that you are in a safe place to say what you said about rape, me, my marriage for the sake of politics.. But you? Sick and twisted.
Oh! So it is okay for you to say nasty stuff about me, but returning the gesture is an offence?
How CCP of you! :rolleyes:
What a hypocrite
At least I don't have the emotional capacity of a dingo when it comes to my own children and in the nightmarish scenario that they ever tell me they had been raped, I would not come out and say 'well, just because you say you've been raped, does not mean you were actually raped'..
This is why I call you a liar.:D
Show where I said that
You have excused it. You have blamed and shamed the victim:
Where?
Liar!
This you?
What is wrong with that quote?
Please explain
Then again, I should not be surprised that this is you. I doubt any of us will ever forget when you tried to push a scenario where rape and murdering women could be beneficial.
What’s wrong with giving hypothetical scenarios to explain a point?
We aren't accusing you of excusing rape, Jan. When we say that you excuse rape, we are simply stating a fact. This is who you are:
You still need to show where I excuse rape.
Or is this just another one of your baseless accusation :rolleyes:
Why indeed, eh Jan?
Why not have a bash at answering. It would be interesting to hear your perspective
The point, Jan, is that this is your history on this website. As I said, it's not that we are accusing you of being a misogynist and excuser of rape. It's not an accusation. It's a statement of fact.
What’s my history? That post?

As I said, you are averse to the truth, and cannot be trusted.
 
So a theist does not believe in God? :rolleyes:
No, a theist may not necessarily understand God. To claim otherwise is Hubris!
Yes.
Because for an atheist, there is no God, and he understands it from that perspective.
If there is no God, one cannot believe.
True, but that does not mean atheists cannot understand the concept of God. Understanding something is the only acceptable way for rejecting the proposition.
Like who?
Like Hypatia, the first atheist woman astronomer, who was literally torn apart by theist priests .

The Killing of Hypatia

A fight over all things visible and invisible, featuring practical magic, empire, and terrible men.
By Soraya Field Fiorio
06539901.jpg

Hypatia, by Julia Margaret Cameron, 1867. The J. Paul Getty Museum. Digital image courtesy of the Getty’s Open Content Program.
One early spring day during the year 415 in the city of Alexandria—the intellectual heart of the waning Roman Empire—the pagan philosopher Hypatia was murdered by a mob of Christian men. These men, the parabalani, were a volunteer militia of monks serving as henchmen to the archbishop. Their conscripted purpose was to aid the dead and dying but they could be more readily found terrorizing opposing Christian groups and leveling pagan temples.
At the urging of Cyril, bishop of Alexandria, they had already destroyed the remains of the Library of Alexandria. The parabalani razed pagan temples, attacked the Jewish quarters, and defiled masterpieces of ancient art they considered demonic by mutilating statues and melting them down for gold. They now set their gaze on the city’s beloved teacher of mathematics and philosophy, whose social ranking was on par with Alexandria’s most important men. Understanding nothing of her philosophy, they called her a witch.
They pulled the elderly teacher from her chariot as she rode through the city and dragged her to a temple. She was stripped naked, her skin flayed with jagged pieces of oyster shells, her limbs pulled from her body and paraded through the streets. Her remains were burned in a mockery of pagan sacrifice.
Hypatia’s death marked the end of paganism and the triumph of Christianity, the final act of a one-hundred-year-old feud waged by the new religion against the ancient world.

That is dumb.
No, Faith, belief without knowledge is dumb.
You assume you know what is true by thinking you can prove it to be true. But if you are averse to the truth as you are, your conclusions will always be wrong.
I see, all knowledge based on proof is imaginary?
Only belief without knowledge is proof of truth. Now you are just descending from the ridiculous into the insane.
No. I agree with scripture
“Thou shalt not kill”
It is you and your like-minds that disagree with scripture
No, thou shalt not kill is a secular moral. But in scripture this command is a "negotiable" proposition.
In scripture it means "Thou shalt not kill, except when God approves of it" and leaves it up to the believer when God approves of it. You cannot claim that history of Holy wars is imaginary.
What do you mean by “equals”?
There you have it. That secular moral command does not exist in scripture and is why you are ignorant of that concept.
It doesn’t take a particularly clean backyard to work atheists out. Observing their wicked traits is not a spiritual awakening. It is a trait that expresses it self at certain times. Otherwise you can’t tell.
Oh it takes a whole lot to clean out the theist backyard, some 3000 years worth of misunderstanding and prejudicial behavior.
What is nasty about God killing evil lineages to stop them from creating anymore?
Because it isn't God doing the killing. It's humans doing the killing because God told them it was a good idea.

Atheism recognize that "natural selection" is the scientifically accepted natural process for evolutionary processes. Any human interference in that process is strictly temporary and usually found to be detrimental in the larger scheme of things.
That atheism!
You can’t go any further than that.
No those are YOUR words; "A theist by dint of the designation believes in God , and while no man understand everything, a theist, by dint of designation understands God well enough to maintain his/her belief in Him."
We are living in the application of “The age of reason” right now.
Murder and mayhem…. sanctioned
Sanctioned by God!
 
:eek:

Taphas - lay hold on
https://www.biblestudytools.com/lexicons/hebrew/nas/taphas.html

Show me the word RAPE in this.
In the passage? Sure. Once again:

Christian Standard Bible: If a man encounters a young woman, a virgin who is not engaged, takes hold of her and rapes her, and they are discovered . . .
Holman Standard Bible: If a man encounters a young woman, a virgin who is not engaged, takes hold of her and rapes her, and they are discovered . . .
God's Word translation: This is what you must do when a man rapes a virgin who isn't engaged. When the crime is discovered . . .
International Standard Version: However, if a man meets a girl who isn't engaged to be married, and he seizes her, rapes her, and is later found out . . .
NET Bible: Suppose a man comes across a virgin who is not engaged and overpowers and rapes her and they are discovered. . .
The various translations have nothing to do with the Bible.
ALL modern Bibles are translations. ALL of them. Any Bible you've ever read is a translation.

So according to you, Bibles have nothing to do with the Bible. I bet you think that even makes sense.
That is why they can decide, if they feel like it, to insert a modern word (rape) whenever they choose.
That's what translators do.

If you ever went to college - see if you can get your money back.
 
In most families I know:
The women go to church
the men don't

................
is there some message/wisdom in that?
 
It’s interpreted by evil people, who hate God, and God’s creation. They have no love, so lying to serve their delusion is nothing to them. You should know.
Can't hate what I don't believe in, Jan.

No. It implies holding her in a way that is sexual. Have you ever been held by a man in a sexual manner, but didn’t get raped (serious question)?
Do you honestly think this is an appropriate question, Jan?

What is wrong with you?

Exactly.
If she was married, she’d be committing adultery, which is an abomination.
*Raise eyebrows*

Which is apparently worthy of being stoned to death...

The act is a spiritual transgression which is passed on to her father, and generations to come. Just goes to show how fallen we have become in this age.
I would say the falling would have occurred from the point where it was deemed necessary by society to stone women (and men) to death for having sex outside of marriage, Jan.

But you seem to think that we have fallen because society does not deem women to be objects who are owned by the men in their lives, from their father to their husbands... What does that say about you?
No. If she was raped, she would still be innocent. No spiritual transgression.
She liked being held by this man, and was party to it. So much so she had sex with him.
Have you ever been in that position?
Why are you so interested in my sex life Jan? You keep asking and frankly, just makes you look like a creepy pervert.

Secondly, you seem to be arguing that if a woman enjoys sex outside of marriage, then that "spiritual transgression" is somehow worthy of death. Is that what you want society to get back to?

Why not?
Have ever hugged before having sex?
3rd question in a single post about my sex life.

Sexual harassment much?

Maybe that is yours and some others experience, but some women do give consent to rough sex, which may well include being held down. But you already know that. So what is your actual reason to think that verse implies rape?
4th comment about my sex life.. You're on a creep roll now.. It's interesting that you only save this sort of behaviour for women.

And I have already explained why that verse implies rape. Why do you keep asking the same questions over and over again?

This just shows you don’t understand that culture. You seem to think those societies are like today’s society. You think you can use your current level of understanding to judge ancient cultures.
Which is exactly the point, is it not? I mean, on some level, you do see what you just said, yes?

Religions of today are still relying on and preaching texts that were written in ancient times and cultures, where women were chattels and owned by men, to today's society and particularly, applying those ancient and outdated and frankly horrific standards to women today. An underlying theme in those ancient cultures and societies which fed religious texts that is relied on today as a moral compass, is one of ownership culture.

You don’t get the culture, because you are viewing it entirely from an atheist, woke, radical-leftist perspective. Your arrogance can’t allow you understand why the culture is like the way it is
Please, enlighten me Jan. Why should we still be adhering to rules from an outdated and ancient culture where owning women was deemed normal?

Tiassa commented on your current, dumb behaviour. Thinking your dumbness was a performance because he “knows your smarter than this”. I asked what made him think you were performing. So I’m just pointing out to him that you’re not performing. This is what you’re actually about.
Hmm.. You are wading into a disagreement that has nothing to do with you and which you know nothing about.

Oh! So it is okay for you to say nasty stuff about me, but returning the gesture is an offence?
How CCP of you! :rolleyes:
What a hypocrite
Jan, your misogyny and bigotry on this website is well known and on record. You want to take snipes about my personal life and my rape, that's on you, not me. Just as your repeated questions about my sex life is on you and simply serves to show just what kind of person you are.
This is why I call you a liar.:D
Show where I said that
Here:

If a man is accused of raping your daughter and his defense is 'I did not rape her, I simply lay hold of her and lay with her', how well do you think that would go. You would be cool with that, yeah? Not rape, right? I mean shit, would you be okay with then selling her off to the guy for some coin and a few goats? How many coins is she worth to you?
So because a man is “accused” of rape, he is guilty of rape? Are you serious?
Are you serious in general?:D
Let me know, in your tiny idea, if the man did actually rape my daughter, then it become a decent talking point.
Accusations alone cant determine the truth. Not that the truth matters to you in particular. But for normal people it does.
Are you denying you said this?

Does someone else have access to your account? Do you have selective amnesia? Short term memory loss? Or are those your words?

Where?
Liar!
Did you not read the quote that followed it. See, this is why you are a troll.. You keep asking the same questions over and over again, despite that evidence having already been provided.
What is wrong with that quote?
Please explain
Here it is again:
If I said that a female dressed in scanty clad is an excuse for her to be abused and/or raped. You would probably conclude that the problem lies with me, rather than the scantily clad woman.
The problem of their stubborn mind-set is their problem. Not mine.
There may at some point in the future, one person who stumbles upon what I’m saying in these forums, who may comprehend what is being said, which may cause him /her to think for themselves.
You victim blamed and victim shamed. What a woman wears has no bearing and is not the cause of her rape. Most men understand this. Why can't you?

Oh wait, that's right. You're the misogynist who's pining for the days of old where women are stoned for shaming their father's.

What’s wrong with giving hypothetical scenarios to explain a point?
A fantasy as to when it could be acceptable to rape and murder a woman is now a hypothetical scenario to you?

Do you have those often Jan?
You still need to show where I excuse rape.
Or is this just another one of your baseless accusation :rolleyes:
You literally came up with a fantasy and used it as an example of when rape and murdering women could be excused and be deemed acceptable in your eyes, and you literally said this:

If I said that a female dressed in scanty clad is an excuse for her to be abused and/or raped. You would probably conclude that the problem lies with me, rather than the scantily clad woman.
The problem of their stubborn mind-set is their problem. Not mine.
There may at some point in the future, one person who stumbles upon what I’m saying in these forums, who may comprehend what is being said, which may cause him /her to think for themselves.
And you are asking me for proof of where you excuse rape?

You don't see the issues with what you have said, do you?

Please seek help. You are clearly a danger to women.

Why not have a bash at answering. It would be interesting to hear your perspective
I don't respect and admire rape, Jan.

That's my perspective.

Given your behaviour throughout this post, I can see how you have a problem with that.
What’s my history? That post?

As I said, you are averse to the truth, and cannot be trusted.
And you are a misogynistic perverted troll who sexually harassed women in this thread, as well as having a history of dreaming up "scenarios" of when it could be acceptable to rape and murder women.

That's your history on this site.

And it's on record.

We're done. Because you have provided yourself with enough rope that it would be cruel of me to allow you to continue and frankly, I don't particularly enjoy talking to people who fantasises about when it would be acceptable to rape and murder women. Nor do I particularly wish to continue engaging with someone intent on sexually harassing me by asking me personal and intimate questions about my sex life.
 
Oh Jan (between you and me),

From what I hear you must be a real animal in bed, desired by every woman who needs to be dominated.

Go Jan!!!!!

And that is just so rare anymore. Rape is in the past, today there is only sinful consensual sex.
 
Can't hate what I don't believe in, Jan.
Yes you can.
Do you honestly think this is an appropriate question, Jan?
Yes.
Unless your answer is no, you have first-hand proof that your whole understanding of those passages are mistaken.
What is wrong with you?
What a strange question.
What do you find inappropriate about my line of questioning?
*Raise eyebrows*
Which is apparently worthy of being stoned to death...
For those people, at that time, in that place, yes.

Maybe.
In their society.
It’s one thing to act out of ignorance, but it’s another thing to transgress what you know to be true.
Why are you so interested in my sex life Jan?
I’m not Bells.
I want to know if you really think that being held by a man is either an act of rape, or consistently leads to rape.
You keep asking and frankly, just makes you look like a creepy pervert.
I don’t believe you.
You’re just trying to score points
Secondly, you seem to be arguing that if a woman enjoys sex outside of marriage, then that "spiritual transgression" is somehow worthy of death. Is that what you want society to get back to?
Not just women Bells, men also.
3rd question in a single post about my sex life.
Sexual harassment much?
Asking a question is not harassment Bells.
Falsely accusing someone of acts without offering any proof, or even a reasonable explanation is.
4th comment about my sex life.. You're on a creep roll now.. It's interesting that you only save this sort of behaviour for women.
Where did I comment on your sex life?
Don’t you know that some women like rough sex.
And I have already explained why that verse implies rape. Why do you keep asking the same questions over and over again?
Because I think you’re not telling the truth.
I’m going to assume that you have been held in a sexual embrace that didn’t lead to being raped, and therefore you have proved your own analysis wrong.
Religions of today are still relying on and preaching texts that were written in ancient times and cultures, where women were chattels and owned by men, to today's society and particularly, applying those ancient and outdated and frankly horrific standards to women today. An underlying theme in those ancient cultures and societies which fed religious texts that is relied on today as a moral compass, is one of ownership culture.
Your whole understanding of those laws that were specifically written for those people, at that specific time, place, and circumstance, is totally mistaken, and misunderstood
Jan, your misogyny and bigotry on this website is well known and on record.
Then you should have no problem bringing up examples. Should you?
Remember!
An accusation by itself is not proof of evidence :rolleyes:
You want to take snipes about my personal life and my rape, that's on you, not me. Just as your repeated questions about my sex life is on you and simply serves to show just what kind of person you are.
What a victim you are.
And for the record, I mentioned nothing about any rape encounters you may have had. I wasn’t even aware you had any. The only thing I remember was that you boyfriend/husband left you for another woman. You made that public knowledge.
I do not care one iota about your sex life.
Are you denying you said this?
You stated… “nightmarish scenario that they ever tell me they had been raped, I would not come out and say 'well, just because you say you've been raped, does not mean you were actually raped'..

Now show where I said, or even implied this.
It’s amazing how you can just lie like that. But unfortunately such bare-faced untruths are the norm in society now, so it doesn’t surprise me
Did you not read the quote that followed it. See, this is why you are a troll.. You keep asking the same questions over and over again, despite that evidence having already been provided.
You have yet to show that I hate women.
Remember, an accusation alone, is not evidence.
If you cannot provide even a good explanation, then you are harassing me.:rolleyes:
A fantasy as to when it could be acceptable to rape and murder a woman is now a hypothetical scenario to you?

Do you have those often Jan?
And we have a new false accusation on the table. :D
You literally came up with a fantasy and used it as an example of when rape and murdering women could be excused and be deemed acceptable in your eyes, and you literally said this:
Okay…
I see now that you are a pathological liar,
and a dangerous person.
And you are asking me for proof of where you excuse rape?
Yes.
Where is it?
You don't see the issues with what you have said, do you?
I know what I said, and why I said it.
You seem to have distorted what I said, to justify your lying.
Don’t you feel embarrassed?
And you are a misogynistic perverted troll who sexually harassed women in this thread, as well as having a history of dreaming up "scenarios" of when it could be acceptable to rape and murder women.
Like I said earlier…
You are a dangerous person.
You have no shame.

Where did I make a vile accusation? You consider a speculative comment, about what most men would consider a compliment, a vile accusation? In your book, rape is another one of your negotiable, sometimes justifiable activities.

It is always the women who accuse the men of raping them, how do they even dare accuse men of such vile actions. Poor men, how are to defend themselves from such vile accusations. Women are notorious for whoring around. Just ask Ezekiel 16. (Note; Jerusalem is identified as female gender).

On the contrary, it seems to me you are the one who is preoccupied with the vile sexual experiences of women being raped as Bells clearly demonstrated. Post #1531 is clear evidence of your distrust of women.

In fact, it is you who has been making all the accusations of atheists being ignorant and incapable of understanding your holier that thou garbage without evidence or a reasonable explanation.

Firstly, the idea of Bells demonstrating anything in this thread, other than the ability to lie, is a real stretch.
But be my guest, show how it is I am preoccupied with vile sexual experiences of women being raped. I bet you won’t, cause you know it’s not true.
You’re simply angry that I have exposed Bells for what she is. A liar.
Unlike hers, or your dumb claims, I can prove that the she is a liar.
n fact, it is you who has been making all the accusations of atheists being ignorant and incapable of understanding your holier that thou garbage without evidence or a reasonable explanation.
Here let me correct that for you…

“In fact, it is you who has been making all the accusations of atheists being ignorant and incapable of understanding your holier that thou garbage without evidence or a reasonable explanation
That would be correct.
What of it?
