did i say they were the same? they just have the same effect that the law protects children today just like the law back in the bible protected slaves. they may not be as effective as enforcing them as today (b/c of technology) but they still did.
TheDarkestOfAngels- you are confusing many topics we're discussing and mixing them together. some places i talk about slavery and you respond talking about rape. you did this for the second and third quote of me on your last post.
another thing, if the woman doesn't marry the man who raped her, she won't get a husband b/c no one will want to marry a woman who has been defiled. she would live with her family until they die and would probably have to resort to prostetution b/c she can't earn money. how is this better?
TheDarkestOfAngels Wrote:No one is saying that. This arguement of yours is a red herring.
well the quote you responded to was my response to this
TheDarkestOfAngels Wrote:"Not getting beaten" and "not being sold into worse slavery" is littl solace compared to being married to someone who is only married to you because he forced himself on you.unless i took this the wrong way you said that people who marry their slaves rape them first. correct me if i'm wrong.
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
