It seems that in modern discourse what constitutes rape is becoming broader and broader.
Not really. Rape is inflicting your genitalia on someone after they tell you not to. That seems pretty standard then and now.

So it looks like Christianity has become the new form of conservatism for the wrong 'uns, though Tate has now taken the extra step to Islam.
How the fuck can they get people to follow them in the twenty-first century? A bloke who quite possibly didn't exist (Jesus) and a bloke who did exist but would be considered deluded and psychopathic these days (Muhammad).
Funny how conservatism these days relies on ancient fairytales. Total bullshit.
Show me one piece of history (not the Bible, that's fan fiction)that verifies the existence of Jesus Christ.Christianity always accepted anyone. I heard on YouTube that the Muslim Brotherhood in American prisons admits sex offenders with children in exchange for protection money.
Why wouldn't Jesus have existed? Look at it this way, how many contemporary cults call their founders "God" so their followers can worship them? Making up a person who never existed doesn't seem to make sense.
Give me the ancient fairytales over modern ones -told by people about themselves- anytime.

If making up people doesn't make sense, does that mean you also believe in the Greek and Roman pantheons and other gods?
Ask an archeologist what they think of historical writing; apparently some think it's better to perform the excavation without being burdened by the presumed accuracy of historical accounts.
I don't even know what that means, but I've studied this for 25 years.
If you mean it's all made up, then yes, I agree.
They mostly aren't supposed to be human.
So was Jesus. That was the point. He incarnated for our sins, but he was also 'God'.
I'm from a Catholic family, so I've had to unpick this nonsense since childhood.
We WERE talking about Russell Brand. Or to be more accurate, the thread was about Russell Brand.Catholicism =/= the whole of X-tianity.
But we were talking about Russell Brand.

Hang on, are you saying that Muhammad was a real flesh and blood organism? (note the reluctance to say 'human').
Is there proof of this? I always assumed it was a mythical creature like that Jesus thing.
I’d rather put more stock into a flying carpet than a nonce.
