Randy, I stand by what I've said: your God condones rape. You have shown me absolutely nothing that will change my mind, and in fact, your apologetics make it even worse.
Disgusting.
Interestingly it's actually rather simple to create a case from the NT to suggest the Christian God is against rape, the concept of successive override (NT overrules OT) isn't alien to Christians after all.
The choice to retain focus upon the OT instead of diverting it to later Pauline prohibitions as the director of morality was a poor one. Although that itself is hardly pro-woman with all the commands to veil and not teach men it's a damn sight better than the OT.
I'd totally agree with you if it weren't the same god.
Nolite te bastardes carborundorum.
