Why are you demanding to talk about stoning? We are discussing rape. We are discussing rape and its suggested use in Holy Books.
Jesus spoke out about sin, awesome. The passage I posted wasn't a sin, it was actually instruction on how to rape someone as a spoil of war. The Bible is instructing on the correct way to rape a woman.
The rape quote that you referenced was from the Old Testament, a Jewish text. You connect it with Christians. Did Jesus write it?
We are supposed to be discussing how a Muslim Imam condones rape, but the Islamapologists want to take it off track.
ETA: How about you show where modern day Christian clerics are condoning rape, if you really want to bash Christians in this thread.edit on 3-6-2013 by butcherguy because: (no reason given)
سوريا هي ولاية ايرانية فدعوتنا للرئيس باراك اوباما والاتحاد الاوروبي والحكام المسلمين والعرب الى ارسال القوات المسلحة لتحمي الشعب السوري من قاتله ولتوقف اسباب اضطهاد المراة من قبل هؤلاء الشبيحة وما سيترتب على عدم التدخل من ظهور السبي (الاسرى والمختطفين والمغتصبين ) من جديد وهو ما بدا به الاسد وكتائبه ضد الشعب

Knock it off. You should learn to read more carefully. I clearly said MASS RAPES by US soldiers doesn't happen and it's not called for by the government. If a rape happens then it is investigated and prosecuted by our government. This is OPPOSITE of what the Imam is calling for. :shk:
so what is a mass rape?? do the rapes need to occur all at the same time to be considered mass rape?? maybe a few hours apart??
So it is okay for regular rapes to happen but we draw the line at mass rapes and the enemy doesn't
so basically you are saying that non mass rapes caused by american soldiers is okay but Mass rapes are not and the muslims are wrecking the curve by going from single rapes to mass rapes.
both parties guilty of rape and you want to sit here and point out who is holier than the other when they both rape.

After she has lived in your house and mourned her father and mother for a full month, then you may go to her and be her husband and she shall be your wife.
Deuteronomy 21: 10-13
Christianity seems perfectly comfortable with the same concept.

He should be the first victim.
No lube and make sure there's lots of kicks and punches to enhance the experience.
On second thought, cut off his penis, hand it back and tell him to go f##k himself.

Yeah, this was discussed.
It's all in the Christian Bible. It is all their holy book. Either it's all the Word, or it isn't. People cant claim the bits they like and ignore the bits they don't. Seems a little disingenuous, eh?

It isn't disingenuous if you read the New Testament and see that Jesus refuted portions of the Old Testament... That's why the Jews that were in power at the time wanted him dead.
But that was already discussed.

Just stop. It is silly.
Jesus said himself that all of the old rules still apply.
17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. 19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Matthew 5:17-19

Do you know what he was referring to when he said, 'the law'?
You said earlier that the Bible is the holy book. Try Romans 10:4
I couldn't help but notice that you didn't show me how there are countries where Christians are following the Old Testament and raping, and using the Bible to condone it.edit on 3-6-2013 by butcherguy because: (no reason given)
Romans 10:4 wasn't spoken by Jesus.
Yes, "the law" covers the Books of Deuteronomy and Leviticus, and Jesus was quite clear that he wasn't here to abolish any of it.
There are no state sponsors of religious rape, to suggest otherwise needs some pretty compelling evidence, and a single cleric spouting rubbish (even if it isn't true) is about as convincing as someone saying Fred Phelps speaks for not only all Christians, but all Americans.

Oh, so the Bible is only a good source when it is quoting Jesus?
It was the Holy Book it little while ago... anything else you want to change?
The Bible sanctions rape within its pages, and this is something that the Quran also does. For the Bibler's to say that they are obsolete in the Bible, and anyone that follows the old laws do not represent them without also accepting that reasoning from Quraners is intellectually dishonest.
