does sex really contaminate a person?
how is something natural "a sin"?
how can rapists do this and still claim Christianity and be defended by Christians while the victims thrown out of the churches if they finger the abuser?

Sex between a man and his wife does not contaminate one with sin, a person that has been raped has not committed a sin, they have a sin committed against them.
How is something that is natural "a sin", easy when this something natural is used outside of marriage, even if you are not married and you go to a hooker, you are causing her to sin because she is selling her body.
Satan could claim to be a Christian, I know that Satan believes in Jesus Christ and he believes in God, does that make him a Christian? no it does not, unless you live and act like Jesus Christ as stated in the New Testament you can say all that you want that you are Christian but you are not.
I know of no Christians that defend rapists and I no of no victims that have been thrown out of any church of any denomination for either identifying or testifying against a rapist.
Your question really brings out your ignorance about such things.

Rape is thru nature an act of forcing a individual to undergo a degrading violation against their physique and spirit. the only sin right here is upon the soul of the rapist and not the sufferer. there's no way that God will punish the sufferer of such an act. however the rapist has sinned gravely and could be held responsible for it vast time in the past God. i'm a Catholic Christian and that i've got not heard of everyone interior the placement you defined of being thrown out of a church using fact they have been a sufferer of a rape and had tried to finger the criminal. yet i believe you in case you're saying you have experienced that using fact regrettably there are a number of pharisees and hypocrites in this international even in church homes, putting on the face of non secular righteousness and harboring evil and corruption of their hearts. That became a topic on the time of Jesus and it will continually be a topic using fact of guy's sinful nature. Please do no longer blame all Christians for the strikes of a few. maximum genuine Christians are fans and followers of Christ's teachings which advocates love, admire, mercy, compassion. honesty and love of justice. the folk you talk of have a great subject and with a bit of luck will replace in the past it is in simple terms too overdue or they're going to lose their souls. As for the sufferer of rape, my coronary heart and my prayers pass out to her, and that i pray that justice be triumphant. And exceptionally do no longer believe that the guy who's the sufferer of rape has been contaminated by way of the sin of the rapist. that's unquestionably no longer genuine. God bless you.

Sex only contaminates if you get an STD in regular instances..not rape.
Rape is not natural!!
The world we live in is A** Backwards..that is why. The victims are not protected with the laws while the rapist are...
Where on Earth and how on earth did that ever become O.K??

Rape is a crime. God punishes crime. When you force someone to have sex with you against your will, how can it be natural? If a rapist however, confesses his sins to God and begs for forgiveness, God will forgive him.

Many religions have 'cleansing' rituals to fix this...
''how is something natural "a sin"...it isn't the victim's fault
nor sin...it' the attacker.

??? that is an Islamic practice, not Christian... It is the Muslims that require 4 witnesess for the woman to prove rape. Otherwise she is stoned... or killed by her family to preserve their "honor"

no it doesn't. rape isn't natural. Christians believe in forgiveness for the truly repentant.

I'd say depends on the religion.
Although, ask any sane person and they would say no.
