Comment posted Biblical Gang Rapes Of Numbers 31:35 Used As Excuse For Conquest? by Xamanato.
The gang rapes are in your own mind. (”Young man … when is the raping going to start?”) It’s tough I agree, but such was life back then and of course also in the Moslem conquests.

- Please tell me where this premise comes from? There are no references to this in any text regarding the settlement of America because, it just ain’t so! I am not saying that native American women were not raped, just like any other group of women have been raped throughout the history of mankind. I have never heard or read of anything that indicated that any such rapes occurred because of what is written in the Bible.
In the history of mankind, “to the victors, go the spoils”. This means whatever is of value left in the land that is conquered is given to the winner of the war. Women in history have not held much value by males except as servants or slaves. Women in the USA did not have the same rights as men until the early 1930’s with the suffragette movement and we are still fighting for equality today.
Sounds to me like you think Chirstians are rapists with God’s okay!!! You scare me! - nice way of putting it sicko
- “Virgin baby girls”? So the biblical times had infant action? Huh??
- It does not say that they raped the women and it does not say they are virgin baby girls. it says Moses was to divide the spoils, 32,000 WOMEN who have never slept with a man.

Kind of ironic, considering most politicians don’t exactly follow the teachings of the bible, especially during campaigns! - Is It Just In The South Or Do Candidates In Other Regions Use Church Hymns In Their Ads?
Interesting, I am guessing religion sells there.
In my area the only background tunes I hear piped through are sea chanteys and whaling ballads, It’s quite common here, has anyone else notice that in their area?

The Scripture does not read as this “questioner” suggests, and it seems impossible to infer rape from anywhere in that account.
In fact, Israelite soldiers were allowed to marry captives, but had to treat them with the same rights and respect due to an Israelite wife.
(Deuteronomy 21:10-13) In case you go out to the battle against your enemies and Jehovah your God has given them into your hand and you have carried them away captive; 11 and you have seen among the captives a woman beautiful in form, and you have got attached to her and taken her for your wife, 12 you must then bring her into the midst of your house. She must now shave her head and attend to her nails [for hygienic reasons], 13 and remove the mantle of her captivity from off her and dwell in your house and weep for her father and her mother a whole lunar month; and after that you should have relations with her ["your wife"], and you must take possession of her as your bride, and she must become your wife.
It does not say anything about gang rapes in the Bible learn more about the Bible and study it more before you blaspheme it
history does record the bad things that americans did when they were conquering this country it would make us look bad,even though we are the badist of the bad.we even had slave coming in for england,and the dutch started importing slaves in the late 14th century early 15th century and continued to the eighteenth century.yes americans have done a lot of things in the name of god.we even kill ourselves in the civil war, i know people from the south believed in god and i know people from the north believed in god.but the bottom dollar is most of it is done for greed and we may call it american interest,or economic or our manifest destiny.
“From the Israelites’ half, select one out of every fifty, whether persons, cattle, donkeys, sheep, goats or other animals. Give them to the Levites, who are responsible for the care of the LORD’s tabernacle.” 31 So Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.
32 The plunder remaining from the spoils that the soldiers took was 675,000 sheep, 33 72,000 cattle, 34 61,000 donkeys 35 and 32,000 women who had never slept with a man.
36 The half share of those who fought in the battle was:
337,500 sheep, 37 of which the tribute for the LORD was 675″
All right, virgins. Examples of such unspeakable cruelty to people whose only crime was to reside in places the Israelites wanted to have, are to be found in many other places in the Pentateuch and, even worse, in Joshua.
In comparison, the European conquest of the New World was conducted on a civilized basis. Excesses in Spanish treatment of the natives were condemned in print by several Spanish priests — notably Bartolomeo de las Casas — and had some real effect.
I assume by your thinking that they also raped the 675,000 sheep, 72,000 cattle, and 61,000 donkeys.
It does not say that they raped the women and it does not say they are virgin baby girls. it says Moses was to divide the spoils, 32,000 WOMEN who have never slept with a man.
