I was told that in the bible it says: “If girl or woman is raped she is to be stoned to death."?

I am surprised by the amount of Christians that answered this question that apparently have not read their bible.  Yes it does say that in the bible, in the old testament in the laws that God gave to Moses.  Although it does give different scenarios like if the woman is raped inside the city she should be stoned to death because she should call out for help before it happens but if she is outside the city where there is no one to call for help, then she has committed no sin and should not be put to death.\n\nNo wonder people don't want to convert to Christianity when supposed Christians answer this way and apparently have not read what they claim to preach.

It says nowhere in the Bible that you go to hell for suicide, now you may get punished in heaven, but that is much better than the alternitive. I would rather get beat to death and go to heaven, than live a fabulous life and go to Hell.

Who said He would endlessly torture you?  Someone is perverting what the Bible does say, don't believe them.

A Rabbi once said something like:\nIt is possible to use the law to interpret the law.\n\nParaphrased from memory:\n • Thou shalt not kill.\n • Whosoever lays with another man's wife... they shall both be stoned to death.\n\nDepending on your interpretation, is it even possible to follow both laws?\nWhich one has primacy?\nIs it possible that the latter rule made more sense when mankind was on the edge of survival?\n\nAgain paraphrased (and probably poorly):\nIf a law in the Torah offends you morally, it is your duty to judge it with the law.\nIf you do not agree with the law but it does not offend you morally, then preference should be to obey.

I don't know who the man and woman are this passage is referring to, but it is always wrong to take another man's wife....When King David in the bible took Uriah's wife (batheseba), God punished King David by killing their baby.

After reading the Bible several times thoughtfully, I always THOUGHT whoever wrote it had it "in for us".\n\nMaybe priest molestation IS a pure form of "truth in advertizing" fot this assumption?  and then there is women doomed to childbirth in pain, so on, so on.

Jesus addressed this idea in John 8:\nThe teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group and said to Jesus, "Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?" ... When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her." Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground. At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there. Jesus straightened up and asked her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?" "No one, sir," she said. "Then neither do I condemn you," Jesus declared. "Go now and leave your life of sin."\nI think the passage speaks for itself.

Yes, sure.  IF there is a story in the bible about rape, then ALL rape victims and ALL rapists must act the same way in every rape scenario.  Sounds perfectly reasonable to me.

Personally, I do not believe that we need to change the commandments for this. While the woman will have lost her virginity after being raped, the Christian religion is not supposed to hold it against them. This is what the Bible says about rape.\nBut if in the field the man finds the girl who is engaged, and the man forces her and lies with her, then only the man who lies with her shall die. But you shall do nothing to the girl; there is no sin in the girl worthy of death, for just as a man rises against his neighbor and murders him, so is this case. (Deut. 22:26-27)\nBasically the Bible indicates that there is no sin on behalf of the girl. This does not mean that the girl cannot marry after this, nor does it mean that she should start a life of promiscuity, though many do because they feel it doesn't matter anymore. The Bible states that the man who forces her should pay the consequences, not the woman. I would think that the church is supposed to treat them as a virgin since they really had no choice in the matter. I do not see a reason to change the commandments on this, the Bible says the Lord is the same yesterday, today and forever.

In Moses time, people were stoned for commiting crimes.  Killing people because of their crimes is common in the Bible, especially in the Old Testament.  When Jesus came to earth, it really changed the opinion as a question came out after Jesus was crucified.  \nWhat right does man have to kill other humans because of judgement?  are we not all sinners?

No it is not. The Bible says clearly in Hebrews 9:27\n"...it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment."

In the name of Religion man will: set another human being on fire, hang, torture, rape, starve, torture, set fire to homes, take over small villages and kill their live-stock, wipe out an entire people.  But it is in the name of God.  That makes it ok.  AMEN.   ahem.

I found this quote, from Genesis; I think it is the one that people use to discourage masturbation., judge for yourself.\n\n38:7 And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD slew him.\n38:8 And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother's wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother.\n38:9 And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother.  \n38:10 And the thing which he did displeased the LORD: wherefore he slew him also.

That is correct; the Bible speaks of those who have a "wicked heart of unbelief".\n\nhttp://www.needGod.com

So sad....\nThe Bible prohibits the killing of innocent people (Deu. 19:10). "Thou shall not murder" (Exodus 20:13, NKJV; Genesis 9:5).\nlook how "John the Baptist" responded in the womb to the presence of Jesus, who was newly conceived in the womb of Mary (Luke 1:39-44). \n\nYou shall not slay a child by abortion, if you dont like to have a baby ... DONT SEX!!!
