“Blaming victims is the way we who have not been victimized feel safer,” Rasnake said. “If it’s their fault then I’m safer because I wouldn’t do that.

Unfortunately, the problem is that once the bible is claimed to be the words of god, anyone can claim moral authority based on *any* interpretation of the text no matter how much the society has advanced in the last 2000 years.
