Let us introduce you to parts of the Holy Bible which you have not heard about in sermons from the pulpit, that may shock and dismay you and should certainly convince you that the bible ought to be X-rated.
Below you will find a pornographic view of sex and women, lewdness, depravity and sexual violence often ordered or countenanced by the biblical deity. Don't take our word for it-look it up for yourself.

As Thomas Paine wrote in his classic book The Age of Reason: "Any system of religion that has anything in it that shocks the mind of a child, cannot be a true system." Paine also observed: "Whenever we read the obscene stories, the voluptuous debaucheries, the cruel and torturous executions, the unrelenting vindictiveness, with which more than half the Bible is filled it would be more consistent that we call it the word of a demon than the word of God. It is a history of wickedness that has served to corrupt and brutalize [hu]mankind."
Most of the passages encapsulated above are conveniently quoted in full and in context in J. Ashleigh Burke's book, The X-Rated Book.
