If it’s okay with God, then it’s already legal

          

 You women stop fighting against the word of God!

I don’t know why people are being so hard on Daryush Valizadeh, or Roosh V, the male chauvinistic blogger who has recently called for rape to be legalized when not on public property. How else do you expect him or many of his fellow travelers,to get any sexual release, or potential brides? Besides, Roosh V clearly has the bible on his side. Oh sure, Deuteronomy 22:22-23 says “If a damsel that is a virgin be betrothed unto a husband, and a man find her in the city, and lie with her; Then ye shall bring them both out unto the gate of that city, and ye shall stone them with stones that they die; the damsel, because she cried not, being in the city." (Yes, she has to be killed with him if she didn’t scream loud enough while he was raping her.) But Deuteronomy 22:28-29 says “If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found; Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he hath humbled her…” Evidently, if a rapist just ponies up the silver, the victim is his to keep. So why all the harsh comments and attitudes over legitimizing rape? Seems God’s word in Deuteronomy 22:28-29 is pretty clear…it’s not illegal.

          As psychologist Dr.Valerie Tanrico writes “the Bible never teaches that women should have a choice about sex…male-female relationships in the Bible are determined by a property ethic."

Roosh admits he’s a ‘pick-up artist’ and prides himself on luring unsuspecting women into a compromising situation where what he then calls consensual sex with them can blithely be referred to as a “snuggle with a struggle”. In the misogynistic world of religion where only men matter rape is seen as the right of conquering soldiers, as Moses proposes in Numbers 31:15-18. No, the passage doesn’t order them to rape the girls, but why else would all the male and female prisoners be put to the sword except for the youngest girls who are spared only if they have not known a man? How was that confirmed and why was it important? They weren’t being kept by the soldiers to carry around water basins. In Genesis 19:8, Lot shows us that offering his daughters for raping to a howling mob is perfectly acceptable for any dad to consider when the horde is at the door to molest the two visiting men who claim to be angels. In Judges 19:25-28, the woman IS thrown out the door to a mob where she is raped all night and then dies. And no one is held accountable. Biblical justice.

The greatest example of all is from Luke 1:35 and Matthew 1:18. Mary, betrothed to Joseph, is raped by God (although he could dodge that in court by claiming the Holy Spirit did it without his knowledge) so God could arrive on Earth in human form as Jesus…or so we are led to believe. Did Mary have any say in all this? Were her wishes consulted, her desires known, her freewill considered? If so, where? And if not, why not? This God, who created the universe out of nothing, doesn't then create his son out of nothing too; He forces sex on an unsuspecting woman to have her give birth to Himself in human form and He sees nothing wrong with this. How is that any different than what Roosh V is proposing?

Furthermore, if God (or the Holy Spirit) had been caught in the act of raping Mary, would both of them have been stoned to death as it calls for in Deuteronomy 22:22-23?

Nuggets of "wisdom" from the Roosh.

          Roosh V wrote in his blog last year that to stop rape, all the U.S. Government needs to do is legalize it on private property. From Roosh’s vantage point, a woman has consented to sex the moment she consents to entering a man’s house. So evidently, Roosh V is not out of sync with the supposed Christian creator of the universe. Do Not Rape is not one of God's commandments...it’s not even a suggestion. Needless to say, if God finds it okay to rape a young betrothed woman and then have his angels tell her how lucky and blessed she is, and how she has found favor in His eyes, certainly Roosh luring a young woman of at least 18 years of age into his house (or rather his mom's house since, even at 36 years or age, he lives in her basement) can’t be considered wrong, now can it? Especially if he tells her afterward how lucky she is and that she's found favor in his eyes. (Yeah, I'll bet!) So if God set the standard for this kind of violation, why is anyone surprised when some dim-witted male decides to demand its legalization, and then act on it? Maybe he ought to find the girl's dad, pay him off up front with 50 silver coins, and go from there. It's stupidity like this from a supposed holy book that gives legitimacy to douche-nozzles like Roosh V.
And people wonder why I object to the bible.
