No I'm saying that although the rules are the same he has become tired of trying to teach through fear. He doesn't enjoy it. Did your father enjoy disciplining you. I hope not.
I didn't say it was there dream. Women weren't left alone back then. There husbands were dead. They would have had a worse fate if the men wouldn't have taken them along.
Again even with that said we don't know for sure which parts of the Bible were tampered with. So any of that could be imbelishment. You can't take something literally when that's obviously not how it was intended. You can't take it any kind if way if you can't attempt to comprehend without some misplaced finger pointing.
You are still pretending that rape and murder are good. But if you are going to say that the Bible has been tampered with, why don't you just condemn the story as we presently have it? Why are you unwilling to say that it was wrong for them to murder and rape, if they did what the Bible says they did? And if the Bible has been tampered with, bastardized, why not just throw it out and stop pretending that it is special? If it has been tampered with, it is leading you astray, so you should just throw it away and not follow it at all.
