How many people does it take to argue foolishness?

Originally posted by robbie carrobieThis was put to you: "If a man forcibly has sex with a women against her will that is by definition rape."
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 then this is not the thread for you.
What was your response? Do you remember?
Originally posted by FMFI 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.

Thank you , i was unaware of this.
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?
