I guess Rome was run by and predominantly populated by Semites (along with the followers of Norse mythology and Druidism): &
Well, some light research yeilds a mixed bag:
chaste, but that the men abhorred homosexuality. Tacitus, for instance, stated
that those convicted of corpore infames were buried alive in a
swamp (Germania, 12). Others, on the other hand, suggest that the
kind of institutionalized pederasty described above was practiced in at least
some of the tribes. Procopius implies that the young men of the Heruli had to
serve their elders until they had proved themselves in battle, while according
to Ammianus,
became an equal, the relationship would end. In Crete, if a boy was
“abducted” by a man of lower social status, his relatives would pursue and
rescue him, whereas a man of the same or higher status conferred an honor on
the youth by taking him. Perhaps relationships between mature men were
condemned while those between a man and an adolescent were approved, or
perhaps practices differed from tribe to tribe.
Maybe they were into pederasty. Maybe it varied. They (such as Vikings, I mean) were absolutely into raping captives, however.

Seriously? Couldn't even try to go for David who is infamous for what he did to Bathsheba and Uriah? Where did Abraham have sex with an animal (for power tho) or sacrifice human beings or rape captives?
Whose lament over his degeneracy is found in Ecclesiastes and whose 1000 woman harem was not once condoned or celebrated in the Scriptures. Good job.
Also see you need to reach way back over a few thousand years in order to pull up any examples. Sadly the Scriptures never condone any sexual immorality, even Abraham's semi-incest thing is not lauded in the least and only causes problems.
Since I'm beholden to Christ in Scripture's truth then, if that is true, yes I can absolutely renounce the evil of rape and [needless] torture. Slavery is different, unless it's rape or torture slavery. video related
yes, yes mean ol' "Christians". Look, it's the same deal here. Inquisition, rape enslavement, the lot of it - anything that does not align with Christ's virtue outlined specifically in the Scriptures (Bible) I do not condone.
Can't imagine rape in the name of Christ. Such vulgar blasphemy.
But YOU condone it, don't you? Because white people did it, because your ancestors did it.
And yet where did the great men of the faith I noted earlier do ANY such things? Are they not your ancestors as well? Or are only the barbarians are to be treated with respect?
In fact, I put it to you here:
Either you reject the heritage of Christ Jesus and all your ancestors who stand with Him forever, to honor your barbarian ancestors…
OR you reject the heritage of the pagan barbarians and false Christians (who behaved as barbarians) in honor of your Christ-driven ancestors and the God who knew you from before He formed you in your mother's womb!
