Believing in god is the same as having faith in it. If you're afraid to accept that, then perhaps you're more of an agnostic.

Do you believe that there are some acts that are not to be done, even by those who really want to do them?
Yes. Rape is one of them. I don't see what your question has to do with you avoiding my my questions, especially since it has nothing to do with what I asked. And if they do, then you need to be a little less cryptic.
