Is marital rape scripturally defensible?

[HisServant]

not sure what you're saying here :idunno:

To a christian, having a wondering eye is not an option on the table.

Feminists have succeeded in redefining marriage, and marital rape laws are part of that redefinition.

_____
Marriage Rights and Obligations
A marriage bestows rights and obligations on the married parties, and sometimes on relatives as well, being the sole mechanism for the creation of affinal ties (in-laws). These may include, depending on jurisdiction:

• Giving a husband/wife or his/her family control over a spouse's sexual services, labor, and property.
• Giving a husband/wife responsibility for a spouse's debts.
• Giving a husband/wife visitation rights when his/her spouse is incarcerated or hospitalized.
• Giving a husband/wife control over his/her spouse's affairs when the spouse is incapacitated.
• Establishing the second legal guardian of a parent's child.
• Establishing a joint fund of property for the benefit of children.
• Establishing a relationship between the families of the spouses.

_____​

The primary defining characteristic of a marriage is the sexual relationship between the husband and the wife.
The secondary defining characteristic of a marriage is the children produced by the sexual relationship between the husband and the wife.

It is worth noting that the change in rape law to create marital rape happened at the same time that abortion was legalized.

Both are part of the war against marriage that has turned our country into Sodom and Gomorrah.

You are deflecting. You can call it whatever you want, but when a man forces sexual actions on a woman against their will (or vice versa), that is rape. The context is irrelevant as far as I am concerned.

Christians aren't tempted to sin? :freak:

Maybe you should spend some time reading the passage on the virtuous woman... you seem to be hung up on sex.

You don't know what makes a marriage different from a business partnership?

To a christian, having a wondering eye is not an option on the table.

What is your eye wondering about?
Is it also wandering at the same time?

 

[annabenedetti]

if the woman's being forced, she's rejecting him, right?

is that a matter of affection?

If the woman's being forced, she's being raped, right?

Is that a matter of affection?

 

[ok doser]

it's like you're a mindless parrot, totally oblivious to the foolish spectacle you make of yourself

That's one way to hide the fact that you have no answer. :chuckle:

We are not afraid to say that Christ is married to the Church.

Now tell me Old Testanent aficionados

Was Jehovah married to the nation Israel at any time past/present/future?

 

[HisServant]

Christians aren't tempted to sin? :freak:

You are only tempted if you allow it to happen.

Love and obligation.... sex is a fringe benefit, not a defining factor.

 

[ok doser]

Love and obligation.... sex is a fringe benefit, not a defining factor.

no :nono:


see "be joined to his wife" and "become one flesh"

 

[ok doser]

That's one way to hide the fact that you have no answer. :chuckle:

my question was to spitfire - i didn't bother giving your silly little parrot response more than a glance

 

[ok doser]

You are only tempted if you allow it to happen.

again, no :nono:

 

[annabenedetti]

Doesn't matter who you asked, you can't deny that what I said is true. That's okay, I knew you couldn't, so it wasn't a surprise.

Both are part of the war against marriage that has turned our country into Sodom and Gomorrah.

So you believe the criminalization of marital rape has turned our country into Sodom and Gomorrah.

Has that created personal difficulties for you?

Oh, and in case you conveniently forgot, you left this hanging:

So, genuineoriginal, if you held your wife down and forced yourself on her, you believe you would not be raping her.

YES or NO?

 

[dialm]

Jehovah was married to Israel. This is an Old Testament fact.

Is there anyone out there that is willing to deny the fact?

 

[genuineoriginal]

Love and obligation.... sex is a fringe benefit, not a defining factor.

I see the feminists have succeeded in washing your brain free from any common sense.

In all of history, the last 50 years is the only time when the sexual relationship between a man and a woman was not considered the defining factor of a marriage.

Maybe you should find out what "consummating the marriage" means.

 

[genuineoriginal]

So you believe the criminalization of marital rape has turned our country into Sodom and Gomorrah.

The creation of marital rape by the feminists is one factor in the destruction of marriage.
Other factors include no-fault divorce, abortion, promoting promiscuity, and even suffrage.

It is the destruction of marriage that has turned our country into Sodom and Gomorrah.

 

[ok doser]

Doesn't matter who you asked...

it does to me

if i wanted to waste my time on trolls like you and rusha, i'd play your silly little games


and i'd win, of course :banana:
