no i'm not. i answered your question flat out.
LarissaAnn Wrote:Again I am asking for your evidence that God has changed his stance on rape victims having to marry their rapists, nothing more, nothing less.

LarissaAnn Wrote:I gave religion a go and there are no more answers it can give me that I don't already know or can't find in the bible and don't agree with. I was raised Lutheran and was religious much of my life, but on top of not feeling anything enriching to me personally in it anymore, hence feeling it to be nothing more than mythology,
well i'm sorry to hear that. many people leave the church because they don't sense the presense of God.

what you need to understand is you can't understand the bible by reading a few sentences out of the book. you can't define any book with a few sentences. you really have to read it cover to cover to understand it. i know, it sounds like work but it's not just true for the bible, it's true for all books.
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!
