Please read this. It is an important example of how liberal news media distorts God's message in their reporting.

A woman was gang-raped by some 12 men on the orders of a village council in eastern India as punishment for apparently having an affair, a police officer said Thursday.
The council ordered the horrific penalty to be carried out in a village in West Bengal state on Tuesday night after the 20-year-old woman was discovered with a man from another community, a senior officer said.
Police have arrested 12 people over the attack which was meted out after the woman’s parents said they could not pay the fine of 25,000 rupees (400 dollars) imposed by the council for having the affair.
“The girl was gang-raped for having an affair with a youth of another community and failing to pay the fine which was imposed by the village council,” district police superintendent C. Sudhakar told AFP.

Not enough people bother to read Judges:19 and, as a consequence, such things as this form of justice seem to elicit some errant sympathetic feelings towards the dot-head woman in the Christian world. However, what we see in India is merely the start of the imposition of Holy Law heralding Christ’s return when all knees shall bow.
It may seem to the weak of faith that ordering the gang-rape of a young girl is, in some way savage. It is not. It is ordained by God and for the good of us all.
Judges:19 tells the story of a Levite who lived on a mountainside with a mistress but the mistress was unfaithful and returned to her father. The Levite went to his father-in-law’s house and was well received. The Levite wants to leave with his mistress but the father-in-law insists that he stay to enjoy more hospitality. Eventually, the Levite and his mistress make their way home.
On their way back, they stopped in the city of the Benjaminites, Gibeah, but could not find a room. Fortunately, an old man from the same area as the Levite offered him and his party food and lodgings. Now as they were eating, there was a knocking on the door. It was a crowd of drunken youths who wanted to anally rape the Levite. (I assume these things were common in those days when there was no Christian TV channels. See also Gen:19:5-8, in which in Sodom and Gomorrah a similar thing happens - a wandering band of delinquent hairdressers want anal sex.)
Like any good host, the old man offered his virgin daughter and the Levite’s mistress to them but they ignored him. So the Levite insisted they take his mistress and they did. The whole gang went “in unto her” all night and in the street.
Come morning the Levite finds the mistress, her hands on the doorstep and tells her to get up and leave. But she’s dead. So he cuts her into 12 pieces and sends the bits to various parts of Israel to ensure that the same thing never happened again.
I suggest that even those unconvinced of the godliness of the gang-rape as an act of justice need only realise that this girl was not a Christian and never would be and as such, death was the only real justice. For does not Jesus say,
“De:32:16: They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they him to anger.”?
Thus any way we look at this dot-headed harlot's conduct, God has crossed all cultural barriers and brought His Justice to the world.
