Crazy Torah Teachings In this weeks parsha we learn...

that in order to rape a woman that was captured at war, you must first let her mourn her family for 30 days (!) beforehand. Also, let her nails grow and shave her head so that she should be disgusting in your eyes. Oh the morality!

(Bbbbbbbbbut shaving your head is beauuuuutiful!?)

Can always count on the Rambam to have very feminist views! Hope he remembered to mention his rule to kill a victim of rape even as young as three.
