rob Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Teenage girl won't be forced to get an abortion So let me get this straight...if a minor DOESN'T want an abortion, she can't be forced by her parents. But if she DOES want one, she can't get one without their permission. Parents can only force you to have a baby, but can't force you to not have one? So fucktarded. We're basically North Korea.

They would only have killed her if she were raped. The truth isn't bad enough, we have to make it worse? Raped girls were not stoned- the rapist was stoned. Unless he agreed to marry her. Wrong. Re-read your Deuteronomy (starting at 22-23, if you can't remember). If a betrothed woman was raped in the city, both were executed (she was in the city and should have cried out, after all, so it wasn't really even rape). But, if a betrothed woman was raped in the countryside, only the rapist was executed -- since nobody could have heard her cry out anyway. But, relevant to this story, if a man had sex with an unbetrothed virgin, nobody was executed -- the rapist had to pay 50 shekels to the woman's father, and marry her and give up his rights to a divorce. "If a man finds a young woman who is a virgin, who is not betrothed, and he seizes her and lies with her, and they are found out, then the man who lay with her shall give to the young woman’s father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife because he has humbled her; he shall not be permitted to divorce her all his days."

Especially not a member of the Banu Qurayza tribe. scores adn highlights? i know "medina" means a jewish quarter/city in an arab land, and that ole'muhammad was invited to the famous one at a time when he was in political peril in mecca, but was well known for his talents as a mediator seem to recall a big war on apostates after the old boy got pulled up to heaven on his golden chains, but i thought that was more against arab tribesmen who's conversions had been about personal loyalty to him as opposed to his creed...

rob Posted February 21, 2013 Author Share Posted February 21, 2013 There were three or four major Jewish tribes living in Medina at the time of Muhammad's arrival, along with other non-Jewish arab tribes. As you say, Muhammad was invited due to his talents as mediator to help with the constant infighting in Medina between the various tribes. He came in and they all signed a pact of mutual cooperation under Muhammad's mediation, referred to as the Constitution of Medina. The jews in Medina quickly lost favor with Muhammad after they were among the few who still refused to accept his station as prophet -- they argued that embracing Islam was never part of the agreement, just mutual cooperation. One by one, Muhammad and his followers expelled the Jewish tribes, for various reasons, usually exiling them and allowing them to take with them only what they could carry. However, the last tribe standing, the Banu Qurayza, fell astray of his good wishes after Meccan soldiers attacked Medina. After the battle, there was some question of the Jewish tribe's loyalty to Muhammad, so Muhammad had every male "old enough to shave" executed, and the women and children sold into slavery. Historical accounts estimate ~900 men were executed over the course of a few days and dumped into a mass grave, while the wailing women and children were sold in exchange for horses and arms. Good times! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, christians. Deut 22:23-24 If a man happens to meet in a town a virgin pledged to be married and he sleeps with her, 24 you shall take both of them to the gate of that town and stone them to death—the young woman because she was in a town and did not scream for help, and the man because he violated another man’s wife. You must purge the evil from among you. Nothing about rape. This is for consensual sex. Deut 22:25-27 But if out in the country a man happens to meet a young woman pledged to be married and rapes her, only the man who has done this shall die. 26 Do nothing to the woman; she has committed no sin deserving death. This case is like that of someone who attacks and murders a neighbor, 27 for the man found the young woman out in the country, and though the betrothed woman screamed, there was no one to rescue her. In other words, if it happens in the countryside, the woman is always given the benefit of the doubt. You're understanding it backwards.

ivan Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 i seem to recall the jews had the good sense, quite early in their history, to develop a talmud that had he pleasing affect to so adjudicate all the craziness of the torah so as to render it toof-less that said, didn't dude-er-onomy have good passages about killing folks who wore multiple cuts of cloth or sowed fields w/ more than 1 kinda seed?

Deuteronomy says that if an engaged virgin has sex with a man in the city, they are both killed. It doesn't say consensual sex, it just says "Sex" or "Laid with" (Depending on the translation). I don't see any exclusions in the verse for rapes happening in the city, do you? Sex happens? Death. There is no provision for a woman being raped in the city. In fact, the implication from Deuteronomy is that there is no rape in the city -- she would have called out, after all! Only in the countryside is there an exclusion for rape. It's a pretty hard verse to try to defend, but I'm sure you'll keep trying! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 in a similar vein, the 12 tables of rome allowed a man to kill a man w/o a sound were he to intrude into his home after dark, but during the day he was first obligated to give a good old glorious shout out the window before wading in w/ the gladus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing that's really clear from these many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many sprayfests you get into is that you make it up as you go.. and unless one finds himself super bored with absolutely nothing better to do, there's not much point to trying to enjoy any kind of debate like that. So relish another illusory spray victory.. 'cause you totally win. -Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
