It's not just preaching to the choir, I was interested to see someone explain how this could make sense, and awty gave some explanation.

I guess I was hoping some Christian will explain since they all claim how Bible makes perfect sense, but it seems the only reason why they come to AF these days is to defend Trump.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

This is one of the most pointless threads we’ve had since 37 left.

To be clear, it is not a pointless topic. I just don’t think calling out a particular Bible verse merits its own thread. We have several existing threads into which this one would have slotted very neatly.

Just my opinion.

I was being funny.

When it came to pointless threads, Brian37 came up with some doozies, lol.

And suppose I want to obey that God's command. How can I tell if a woman is on her period? Especially since most women take offense when you ask them.

If it matters to them, they'll let you know. Otherwise, it seems to be a modern trend where women will have sex while on their period.

He pops in now and then.  But isn't here like he used to be.  I wish him well.
