Deut 22:20 - 21 But if the thing is true, that the tokens of virginity were not found in the young woman, then they shall bring out the young woman to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her to death with stones, because she has wrought folly in Israel by playing the harlot in her father's house; so you shall purge the evil from the midst of you.

I like how God "warns" us and everything. It seems kind of like a bribe, doesn't it?

If you think that is sadistic, right now you have the opportunity to avoid that if you accept Jesus as your savior before this happens. God's wrath is nothing to take lightly. The bible is filled with warnings and prophacy to keep you from going through His wrath. Turn your life over to the Lord today, and you wont have to worry about this happening to you.

Life was a little barbaric back then, wasn't it? Still is in some parts of the world. What sinful people we are!

Do you think that is barbaric?
So do I.
Have you seen those pics of dead and mangled children on the internet...Lebonese kids, Israeli kids, etc? Did they make you sick?
Me too.
God knows us pretty well, doesn't He?

i noticed you quoted the old testament, pre-jesus.
Jesus' teachings are the ones we follow. if any teachings are made in the old testament that contradict what the new testament says, they "dont count", as in dont follow them
