Damned Christians

[Ahriman]

The Dark Age was the real Enlightenment.

So, you believe that sinners should be killed with rocks, a man should be allowed to own slaves, a husband should be allowed to rape his wife, and non-believers should be burnt at the stake?

Boru

What's illogical about any of that?

You aren't even an interesting troll.

I'm not trolling. God made humans with the intention of them having good lives. If following God's precepts helps people live good lives, then those precepts should be followed.

[The Grand Nudger]

Yeah, we've had better.

Ah I see the problem. You classify as teachings  you don’t like pertaining to women as abuse. Like marriage. Like childbirth.  Like male priests

No, I classify abuse as abuse. The notion that it's impossible for a husband to rape his wife is an abusive one.

Boru

But you believe sex within a lawful marriage where the wife is young qualifies as abuse.  Yes?  In fact many on the left see marriage itself as subjugation of women.  With those people, this is a pointless debate.

You’re doing it again. Married mutual sex isn’t rape. Just because you may wish two particular people hadn’t married doesn’t make sex ‘assault’

I never said 'mutual married sex' was rape. But under some Christian denominations, a man can force himself on his wife and it can't be considered rape.

See, this is why - in enlightened societies - secular laws supersede religious ones.

Boru

I don't know any Christian religion that espouses that.  But I can only speak for my religion, Catholicism, which certainly does not.

He was mostly talking about this Christian practice

It's interesting.  If a minor girl chooses to marry and have sex, that's a big no-no.   But if said minor chooses to have unmarried sex, then who the hell are we to object?

[Silver]

We reasonably object to both scenarios.
