Shit must've been vicious back then that some women would stop a fight by pulling on the competitions balls in the middle of a skirmish.

And that's another problem with books claiming to be God's word. Horrific insanity is sanctioned and can't be deleted even when it's apparent that it is hugely immoral.

However, if you are a just a friend of one of the combatants... fondle away!

The book said hand, not arm dummy! And wrong arm too!

Like God says... Lol!

Well duh, she has willingly chosen to use a part of her body on another man's junk. How can the husband stand that a. his wife saved his ass and b. she dared to touch another man's "no-no" stick. We can't have that hand hanging around, taunting the poor husband, can we?

I'm unsure why I would want to hurt the person who has the upper hand on my enemy? Maybe god had the scenario wrong?

Talk about books that should be banned....

Ugh. Gotta love the Bible. It’s like an extremely sick and twisted Stephen King novel except they think it’s true and we know that Stephen King writes fiction.

I've never really read much of the Bible and I thought I'd check out if it is true that the bible really says this. Sure enough:

Deuteronomy 25:11-12
King James Version
11 When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near for to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets:
12 Then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall not pity her.

The bible and it’s abrahamic brothers are nothing but women hating odes to tribal male superiority and female exploitation. Anyone who can read that crap and not plainly see it, is seriously stupid.

The believer's standard answer is always "yeah, but that was in the Old Testament."

I wonder how often that played out.

I was not aware of this instruction. Now, in the unlikely event this ever happens I know what to do.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
