What book(s) are you currently reading? 10 August
  • Aye I'm reading one of Sanderson's secret projects right now! It's the latest one. I don't want to spoil the title for anyone. But it hasn't been one of Sanderson's best works in my opinion. Feels a bit YA. But as long as I get some extra Cosmere knowledge I'm on board!

  • You're correct. But in Christianity premarital sex is seen as a sin and whether or not its consensual they would most likely still see it as a act of violating a woman.

  • I could see that as an interpretation for sure. I'm not well versed enough in Hebrew to understand the original text and it's context. But I think one could argue that "seize" here could be seen as persuing her romantically.

    Now please don't take this as me defending any of this. I'm just trying to show how many different ways this may be interpreted which leads to how people take the Bible out of context or to extremes.

  • Hmmm. Reading the scripture it seems to me to not even be about rape. But more like sex out of wedlock.

    28 g“If a man meets a virgin who is not betrothed, and seizes her and lies with her, and they are found, 29 then the man who lay with her shall give to the father of the young woman fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife, because he has violated her. He may not divorce her all his days. >

  • What was your biggest fantasy book disappointment?
  • The Night Angel trilogy. I got about half way into the 3rd book and realized I was just forcing myself to read it. The characters sucks. The MC was either OP or didn't know wtf to do. The authors description of women is mildly sexist. Every girl was some bombshell or ugly as a foot and their only relevance was to be some kind of sex symbol. The book series seems like a neckbeard's paradise

  • If you could be any rodent, what rodent would you be?

    I would be a capybara. King of the rodents who is friends with everyone!
