That 2 Kings 15:16 verse is pretty vicious.

Quote:
Then Menahem smote Tiphsah, and all that were therein, and the coasts thereof from Tirzah: because they opened not to him, therefore he smote it; and all the women therein that were with child he ripped up.
So god is so loving he rips up pregnant women.

There is no context that can excuse this colossal piece of f*ckery.

NO! YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND!

He ripped them up metaphorically.

But society was different back then. Ripping up pregnant women isn't relevant today...

Perhaps that's what religious people mean when they talk about having an "open heart"

^I laughed a little more at the fact that the quote came from someone called "cocklord"

Over in the Other Forum, antiskeptic posted a frankly unusual photo, one of a set of images sourced from here. The religious caption is "Forgiving others sets us free from emotional bondage, allowing us to move forward with his glorious plan".

Better caption anybody?
