Yes but there are differing views even among Christians and suddenly Robbie's idea that was pounced upon fervently by the rabid forum hounds, scrambling and barking like mad dogs after a fox has been debated before, unknown to him.

the link that I provided is not my perspective, I have already given my perspective. Perhaps you had better read it for it will save you asking me silly questions and me repeating myself.

The matter is a subject for legitimate religious debate. If you feel uncomfortable with that or cannot approach the matter without moralising over other people in the process then this is not the thread for you.

This was put to you: "If a man forcibly has sex with a women against her will that is by definition rape."

What was your response? Do you remember?

I have made my position clear, you may make reference to that. The fact of the matter is the debate centers around a Christian principle that others who have looked at the Bible have also considered and questioned whether a matter can be construed as rape if consent has been given through marital vows. The issue is not about the morality of rape and it never was about the morality of rape and if you are unable to look at the issue objectively without attempts to make the issue a personal one (as you are attempting to do here and have done throughout your entire RHP posting history) then this is not the thread for you.

What was your response when that statement about marital rape was put to you?


ThinkOfOne: "Found this in Wiki. Thought it might shed some light on this topic.
The Bible at 1 Corinthians 7:3-5 [the text was quoted here]..."

Thank you , i was unaware of this.
ThinkOfOne posted 1 Corinthians 7:3-5 on 7th October and you immediately declared that you were "unaware" of it.

And yet on 4th October, three days before, you posted this:

"The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. The wife does not have authority over her own body but yields it to her husband. In the same way, the husband does not have authority over his own body but yields it to his wife. Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. 1 Corinthians 7: 3-5 NIV"

How do you explain the glaring discrepancy caused by you claiming you were "unaware" of it three days after you had posted it yourself?
