Neither can you presume anyone's innocence.

I am simply stating that only God knows, and that if He is just, then people who get raped or murdered or anything at all, deserve it.

I have to admit that I thought everyone was misunderstanding you the first time, but now that you've made it clear that they didn't, um ... ok ... not sure what to say.

With a hammer.

I would personally swing it if I met her in real life.

Putting the cart before the horse, aren't we?

You're trying to make the evidence fit your conclusion instead of having the evidence inform your conclusion.

God is OK with some one getting raped if they "did something wrong"?

If God is just, getting raped means you deserve it? So bundled in there, God uses rapists to administer his justice? Kinda like those honor killings/acid attacks/rapes in Pakistan or India?

Off to the Hall of Shame with ye! JesusHChrist, just when you think you've heard it all, turns out, you haven't.

This is disgusting. Are you even aware of how much stigma rape victims face with all the "you were asking for it"? They sure as hell don't need to hear they deserved it for their sins.

Fucking christ, I hope you're a poe, but that's wishful thinking.

Tell me then, you sick fuck, what have the victims of child abuse done to 'deserve it'? What atrocious sin against your sky daddy has a six year old girl committed? What has an innocent woman done to deserve the psychological and physical torment of rape?

Seek professional help immediately. You're sick.

You can call me sick if you like, doesn't make it true. I detest rape, murder, child molestation and things of this sort, and I would probably punish those guilty of such things far worse than you ever would.

Those children who suffer for God in terrible ways will be rewarded for it, you can rest assured of that - but sins of the father are repaid to the children to the third and fourth generations. That is God's way, and it doesn't matter if you think it's repugnant. That is the way it is.

What is sick is when God comes to us as flesh and blood, does absolutely nothing wrong, and is crucified for it. But that is how much He loves us - He was willing to suffer such a thing. Some day you'll understand.

Wait, rape and murder are the judgement of a just God, but you detest them anyways?

Cognitive dissonance anyone?
