Almost all "religious" rules are made by men, with others blindly following them. This makes you more pious and "religious", if you do.
Did these people actually read the Bible? "So the two daughters get their farther drunk on wine, rape him, and have his children". Then the Bible moves on to the next tale, like "well, yeah, THAT just happened".
- tobylane 7y agoI’m still surprised how much art is made of Lot and his daughters. Much of it is great, if it wasn’t for the subject and the burning towns in the background I’d buy a print or two.
- Scapeghost 7y agoIt all comes back to control. The leaders of religious communities/countries indulge in all sorts of hanky panky, so even they don't buy their own BS. Or see the recent scandal of Jeffrey Epstein and his sex trafficking for first world elites, or Harvey Weinstein and Hollywood's abusive underbelly. Or, closer to the topic here, the allegations of pedophilia involving UK's cream of the crop.
- papito 7y agoYes, and that's why I do not recognize the institution of church. Too many times it's just a grifting operation stiffing the chumps, and sometimes a hide-away for boy-loving pervs. Because who would ever question a priest?
