Deuteronomy 20:14, 15 As for the women, the children, the livestock and everything else in the city, you may take these as plunder for yourselves. And you may use the plunder the Lord your God gives you from your enemies. This is how you are to treat all the cities that are at a distance from you and do not belong to the nations nearby.
Deuteronomy 25:11 If two men are fighting and the wife of one of them comes to rescue her husband from his assailant, and she reaches out and seizes him by his private parts, you shall cut off her hand. Show her no pity.
Deuteronomy 28: 30 You will be pledged to be married to a woman, but another will take her and rape her.
Deuteronomy 22: 13 to 19 If a man takes a wife and, after sleeping with her, dislikes her and slanders her and gives her a bad name, saying, “I married this woman, but when I approached her, I did not find proof of her virginity,” then the young woman’s father and mother shall bring to the town elders at the gate proof that she was a virgin. Her father will say to the elders, “I gave my daughter in marriage to this man, but he dislikes her. Now he has slandered her and said, ‘I did not find your daughter to be a virgin.’ But here is the proof of my daughter’s virginity.” Then her parents shall display the cloth before the elders of the town, and the elders shall take the man and punish him. They shall fine him a hundred shekels of silver and give them to the young woman’s father, because this man has given an Israelite virgin a bad name. She shall continue to be his wife; he must not divorce her as long as he lives. If, however, the charge is true and no proof of the young woman’s virginity can be found, she shall be brought to the door of her father’s house and there the men of her town shall stone her to death. She has done an outrageous thing in Israel by being promiscuous while still in her father’s house. You must purge the evil from among you.
I'd keep going, but it's a lot of the same shit. A woman has to marry the rapist as compensation...wtf? Pay the father? wtf? If you do god wrong someone will rape your wife as a form of godly vengeance? What the fuck!? If no proof... dude! I'm never going back. Ever.
I really feel bad for Christians when these things are pointed out to them because they try so hard to prove to themselves that "that's not what it means", but inside they know it sucks. Leave them alone for a bit and they will be struggling with all kinds of doubts. If they're smart, they'll recover. If not, they'll go and talk to their leaders about this and their leaders will say, "The Lord works in mysterious ways," and, "Who are you to question the Lord?"
