Yes. I believe God allows us to suffer all kinds of iniquities in this life. God does not promise us perfect lives especially when men and women are capable of evil.

Suffering the sins of others, and being raped, are two greatly different things.

It is through that suffering and overcoming it that we become stronger in faith,

How does being let down by God strengthen anyone's faith ?

rather than just expecting everything to be done for us or to be protected from every malice.

We have been given many instructions for avoiding the sins of others.
It would behoove us all to heed those admonissions.

He is afraid of being raped, in spite of all God's exhortations for avoiding that !

Exhortations for avoiding being raped? Chapter and verse for that please.

Or better yet, since your replies are simply beyond the pale, skip it and go your own way. It's just too crazy to continue this 'conversation'. Just too weird.

Where does God (Satan for you) warn us to not be raped, to not be murdered and not suffer theft or any sort of evil action against it?

I have had it with this whole thing. Bowing out. Catch you on some other thread. Life is too short for providing a platform for such silliness. I wish I had the smarts to figure that out two or three days ago.

MOD HAT ON​

This thread is permanently closed for flaming and goading.​

While starting a thread to talk about how Christians should respond to Islam is allowed, using said thread to goad Christians into a 8 page flamewar is definitely not. And while I'm at it,​

This thread has had a cleanup to remove posts that claim that a Christian member is worshipping Satan.​

That is basically the same as saying that they aren't Christian, which is definitely not allowed, and it's a personal attack on them. This is beyond the pale.

THREAD CLOSED.​

MOD HAT OFF​
