Yeah, I've had this exact same thought, too.

Except that an abused woman might occasionally get a bunch of flowers when her abuser feels guilty.

He occasionally sends a Jesus to heal sick people and atone for our sins.

'ceptin' that those sins are what He considers affronts to hisself and the atoning is accomplished via His self sacrifice

makes perfect sense to somebody somewhere I 'spose . . .

 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Maybe some people need to make sure the blinds are shut when they fuck so as not to affront god. oh, that's right. He's omnipresent, Can't protect his fragile sensibilities. Oh well. maybe he'll like it better with popcorn. I always mix mine with m and m's and Goobers.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers.

As usual, nothing to see here...

Yup.  Nothing to see in your response.

Just like all your other posts, Hugs.

Heck, he even instructed people how to take a crap.  (Where has CL been lately?)  Talk about fragile sensibilities:  
Deuteronomy 23:12-14
12 “You shall have a place outside the camp, and you shall go out to it. 13 And you shall have a trowel with your tools, and when you sit down outside, you shall dig a hole with it and turn back and cover up your excrement. 14 Because the Lord your God walks in the midst of your camp, to deliver you and to give up your enemies before you, therefore your camp must be holy, so that he may not see anything indecent among you and turn away from you.

The verses before that say that if a man is unclean because of nocturnal emissions, he has to go out of the camp and bathe - and stay away for a whole day.  

Yep, very fragile sensibilities.  And menstruation COMPLETELY freaks god out, apparently.   Rolleyes

Which offers an additional pointer to the bible being an ancient code of conduct rather than a holy book. Don't take a shit in your hovel (although I wouldn't know whoever did that), but take it outside and make sure it doesn't stink up the streets.
