Anyway, you’re right. There are much more important things to talk about in the Bible. For example, rape. But don’t even get me started on this or on why the Bible completely subordinates women.
It’s interesting how the Bible treats the topic of sex. Men don’t have sex with women, they “go in to” women. For example, Sarai tells Abram to “go in to my slavegirl” and this results in the birth of Ishmael (Genesis 16.2). Notice how the “slavegirl” has no choice in whether or not she wants to have sex. It’s rape I tell you!...
I mean, I don’t know about you guys, but I surely wouldn’t want my kids to read that and think that it’s ok. Anyway, that’s just me and that was only one example (now think of the Virgin Mary!).
So is this important enough? (as opposed to Jesus’ footwear?)
