What makes the vomit rise in my throat is that both you and Randy seem to think that forcing a woman to share a bed with her rapist for a lifetime, probably bearing his children, is somehow acceptable under any context.
Then swallow hard because it gets even better.
The woman taken into an Israelite home as a wife was fortunate. There, she would hear the Law of Moses and of God's covenant with Abraham, the father of the nation. She would learn of Adam & Eve, of Noah, of Jacob's journey to Egypt. She would learn about Pharoah and the mighty deeds performed before Pharaoh. She would learn of the Passover, the manna that fed the people in the desert and of all the feasts that God had instituted. She would learn of Moses and the burning bush as well as the 10 commandments given to Moses. Above all, she would learn to worship the true God instead of the lifeless idols and gods of other nations.
She would be a very lucky lady, indeed.
So, Randy is not condoning rape? Read Faith No More's comment. He said, basically that it makes him want to vomit that a rape victim might be forced to share her bed with her rapists. Randy's response was For Faith No More to swallow harder because Randy believes that the victim is fortunate to be exposed to the correct god.
