Why do you think this matters? You are essentially saying that it's morally okay to own another human being as property and beat them if they're your property! What the fuck kind of "morals" are those? How can you possibly sit here and say that it's moral to own another human being as property for life and to beat them?

Well I do forget it because that never actually happened. It's a complete fiction as there is no archeological evidence to support this whatsoever. But that aside, I don't see how it relates to the morality of God commanding that homosexuals be killed. The fact that you defend this as "moral" is equally disgusting to me.

Why is two men having sex an "offense" at all, much less one that warrants the death penalty? What is the moral argument for that?

Oh my God...I can't with this bullshit! Yeah, I'm sure she enjoyed having to live the rest of her life with the man who sexually violated her in the worst possible way. Because, you know "society" (God's society) was so morally bankrupt that this was the only way for her to be vindicated!

You are precisely the reason why Christianity is an INSANE religion! You just defended slavery, execution for homosexuals, and punishing rape victims instead of the rapist. Your religion demands the suspension of morality and absurd apologetics to try to make the immoral MONSTER known as "God" into a moral being, and that's just fucking sad!

It matters because it was never God's Will for people to be given into slavery. Yet, He Knew that humanity were too stubborn to treat one another another equally & fairly. So, He PERMITTED it, but, Gave Laws that they should be treated humanely. Then in the New Testament, St. Paul urges Philemon to receive back a runaway slave as a friend, & not as a slave, because he knows that God Does not Will for there to be slaves.

The purpose of sexual intercourse is for procreation. Therefore, it is for (married) men and women to partake in. Not for 2 males and 2 females. Most people (that are pro Capital Punishment) would not want it for homosexual relations today, or even imprisonment.

Yes, the woman was vindicated when the man who raped her married her. Yes, she felt that way, back in thousands of years ago. Referring back to the example of Amnon raping Tamar: If you read the story itself in 2 Samuel, chapter 13, after the rape was committed, Amnon turned against her, and threw her out of his apartment. She begged him not to, because to do so would have been an even greater crime against her than the original one (the rape itself).

I did not defend slavery, execution (I'm anti-Death Penalty, precisely because I believe in the 10 Commandments), nor punishing rape victims. You continue to misinterpret what the Holy Bible teaches, & I correct you.

You know all this how?

...if it is not clear in the Bible to ALL?

Answer: Interpretation by the Catholic Church over centuries in a self serving justification of its own existence.
