It doesn't really matter. Whatever we say to you is just going to get criticized anyway.

What difference does it make whether he believes in a literal interpretation of the OT or not? At the end of the day you both agree with each other that rape is wrong, and in the grand scheme of things, that's all that matters.
Nope. There are plenty more things that matter. You may understand it some day.
I meant in regards to this discussion about rape in the OT.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
