An Atheist Reads The Bible
« on: September 28, 2009, 01:28 AM »

Quote
If a man marries, then decides that he hates his wife, he can claim she wasn't a virgin when they were married. If her father can't produce the "tokens of her virginity" (bloody sheets), then the woman is to be stoned to death at her father's doorstep.-Deuteronomy 22:13-21

Quote
If a man rapes an unbetrothed virgin, he must pay her father 50 shekels of silver and then marry her. - Deuteronomy 22:28-29


To Christians can you please tell where is the justice in these verses l posted above ?

You are a big shame to Atheism. Why do you strive to know more about what you outrightly dont believe in?

Bloody atheists! It was not about justice, but about what they deemed right at the time. In those days people were promiscuously fornicating. Sexually transmitted diseases were rife amongst the people and children were being born without fathers. This law is simply the equivalent of well, to be banal, a condom. Though it was really to enforce abstention.

The second was, marriage arrangement. You take a woman, you take her virginity and she was yours. Sounds equivalent to what barbarians did, except that you paid for the taking.

Still, to those who claim God gave the law, well this is two of them. What say?

To my knowledge, ONLY one child has ever been born fatherless.  So you are talking out of your arse,
