um . . .
you tell me. Is it OK ?
If not OK, why do you know better than God ?
If it is OK, are you going to be unchurched if your pastor finds out ?
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Remember, the guy was traveling but he refused to stay in a Gentile city. He continued on until he reached an Israelite (Benjamite) town. According to the rules of hospitality in the Jewish Babylonian Talmud people should have been eager to invite him into their homes and to take care of his needs. They didn't.
Then an old man saw them and took them to his house and took care of them although they had their own supplies.
As they were having fun the thug crowd showed up (like in Lot's case) and wanted to screw the visitor. At that point the old man offered up his virgin daughter and the man's concubine. In the Jewish Babylonian Talmud a Jew may have sex with a child as long as the child is less than nine years old (Sanhedrin 54b). The crowd rapes the woman. The man finds out that she's dead and cuts her up into twelve pieces and sends them throughout all the territory of Israel.
The important thing to remember is that the guy wasn't really upset that his woman was raped. They sent her out for that purpose. He wasn't too upset that she died. He was pissed that the townspeople had violated the rules of hospitality. That was an insult against God and had to be punished.
No you're totally misinterpreting that passage and taking it out of context. I already schooled you atheist folk on another thread. Here's the proper interpretation:
I think this passage pretty much speaks for itself in that it is about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I mean, hello, the men "Stood at the door and knocked." The concubine was raped to death, which sounds a lot like "My cup runneth over" because Jesus had to drink his "cup of suffering." The concubine (a whore) had her corpse dismembered and sent out to the 12 tribes of Israel, symbolic of how Jesus is a whore because he loves us all and then after he died his gospel was spread throughout the whole world. The Levite offering up his concubine to a viscous mob is a symbol of God offering up Jesus to a viscous mob.
Jesus stands at the door and knocks. Open the door so he might come in and rape you to death. He wants to rape you to death in a spiritual sense.
Checkmate, atheists.
That's a great joke but did you really mean to use "viscous" to describe the mob?

Typo. Meant "vicious."
Jesus is like Pinocchio. He's the bastard son of a carpenter. And a liar. And he wishes he was real.

For sure. English words are a bitch to spell and spellcheck doesn't always catch correctly spelled words that are misused in the sentence. I catch most of mine after posting when I read what I've written.

The question mark was put there because I'm not sure where you got the notion in the first place.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

So what you are saying is that God, and by extension Christians, are pro choice and Christians have been playing the long con of reverse psychology this whole time?

I proof read before posting but I don't use spellcheck because it can't catch *you're* mistakes when *your* fucking up this bad.

May this water that brings a curse enter your body so that your abdomen swells or your womb miscarries." "'Then the woman is to say, "Amen. So be it."

Lol who are you kidding? We could show you and you'd dance on the walls to avoid the obvious.
