General Theistics 101 Guidelines

This area is open for nontheists and theists to interact on issues of theism and faith in a civilized manner. We ask that nontheist participation respect the theistic views of others and not seek to undermine theism in general, or advocate for nontheism. Such posts are more suited for and allowable in Apologetics 301 with very little restriction.

The moderators of this area are given great discretion to determine if a particular thread or comment would more appropriately belong in another forum area.

    No rape is a human ethical construct. What you define as "rape" does not exist at the biological level. Male chimps or dolphins do not, as far as we know, consider their behaviours to be "rape

      Biblically true.

          That's completely unsupported. The fact that there are biological imperatives is completely irrelevant to to human morality.

            I believe higher primates have demonstrated a degree of morals and ethics. They have degrees of punishment for infractions like theft and bad behavior. Also banishment and the death penalty in extreme cases.
