So...

How about that Israeli President stepping down due to rape charges being brought against him?

Before he said he wasn't going to resign, but now he says he's going to temporarily step down. (http://www.teluguportal.net/modules/news/article.php?storyid=29475)

[Pres Zount]

NEWS FLASH

Israeli President rapes something other than Palestine.

BURN

OH SNAP! :cool:

Me: mixed feelings. I don't know what their laws are, or what's considered proper political ettiquette, etc. But if it happened here, I'd say it's inappropriate to recuse yourself. Either resign or govern.

I don't know what their laws are



23 If a man happens to meet in a town a virgin pledged to be married and he sleeps with her, 24 you shall take both of them to the gate of that town and stone them to death—the girl because she was in a town and did not scream for help, and the man because he violated another man's wife. You must purge the evil from among you.

25 But if out in the country a man happens to meet a girl pledged to be married and rapes her, only the man who has done this shall die. 26 Do nothing to the girl; she has committed no sin deserving death. This case is like that of someone who attacks and murders his neighbor, 27 for the man found the girl out in the country, and though the betrothed girl screamed, there was no one to rescue her.

28 If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered, 29 he shall pay the girl's father fifty shekels of silver. [c] He must marry the girl, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives.
- Deuteronomy 22:23-29 (http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?book_id=5&chapter=22&version=31)


These are the principles on which this state was founded, right?

I love how you can believe in the Bible but be picky about it.

Shrimp is a sin! Why are there so many Red Lobsters in the south?

[QueenAdrock]

So is gluttony. At least in the Catholic religion. So all the fatties are going to hell according to them.

[Thundercracker]
