I am not for serious discussion. I am a truth and beauty bomb.

No, but when before we had modern technology, a woman could be raped and you would never know. A woman could be raped and the rapist would get away with it scott free. It was a harsh world
A woman is not punished with death unless she claims to be a virgin and marries a man. It it isn't that she is killed if she doesn't scream, she is killed for falsely accusing a man of rape (because she would have made him die if they believed her).
Those are not laws for modern society, but for the ancient Hebrews. The world was much different and a lot harsher back then.

Go look up apologism. It has nothing to do with apologizing.
My comment on apologism has nothing to do with rape. Except for your stupid ideas on killing the woman because she didn't scream or killing the man "just in case".And I hate to clue you, but most rape and forcible sodomy does not happen in the rapists bedroom. I don't care what your views on it are, I think rapists should be put to death.

One thing is for certain: the more profoundly baffled you have been in your life, the more open your mind becomes to new ideas.

Let's think the unthinkable, let's do the undoable. Let us prepare to grapple with the ineffable itself, and see if we may not eff it after all.
No, obeying God's laws is not a crime. I have a different perspective because one is having harse punishments to stop people from doing wrong, and another is doing one of the most wrong, immoral, and evil things in the world. Who could rape an inoccent nine year old girl? Look into her eyes and tell her of all your perverted fantasies, then continualy rape her?

No. The biblical quote AND your explanation of it made it extremely clear: if a woman is raped in a city and does not scream, she is to be stoned to death with her rapist.
Backpeddeling is useless in this regard.
And somehow you think you aren't an apologist. "Oh it was all moral and good when they did it! God didn't have a choice but to support them!"Those are not laws for modern society, but for the ancient Hebrews. The world was much different and a lot harsher back then.

Or maybe its just moral relativism that irks me.
Or maybe you should just stop defending draconic and immoral acts as morally sound and "completely fair" just because they were written in a religious text six thousand years ago.
