Menstruation, Turtles and Pigeons

Quote them from a different thread, and they'll come a runnin'.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

No no no. It's simple:
ABIOGENESIS! HEARSAY IS NOT EVIDENCE! EVOLUTION! Now you just sit back and wait. 
Oh, come on. They'll just spew the usual apologist BS, about how hygiene was difficult in "ye olden days", so sending women off to the garden for a week every month, was a reasonable solution.
Menstruation is a consequence of original sin and as such unclean and overall - yucky. Eve did not bleed from her snatch in paradise. And I'll bet virgin Mary didn't either. If only women were as virtuous and faithful as virgin Mary - they could probably pray their periods away. Failing that - they can try and make sure they're constantly knocked up - all the way to menopause.

I agree, come on bible believers. Can just one of you sensibly explain this scripture to us? Does your delusion run so deep that it makes sense that an all knowing, all powerful god commands that pigeons be sacrificed because of a natural cycle that it supposedly designed in the first place. It makes no fucking sense whatsoever and that's why none of you can reply. Come on, try to explain it to me. I fucking dare you. 
You guys need to read the entire bible and take hundreds of hours of bible study to understand this verse in context.

Yeah. God's teaching is so perfect and clear that you need some other guy to tell you what it actually means, instead of what it says.
