I came here to post "Of course."

Funny, because it's all part of God's plan!

It's never been explained how or why raping children is integral to God's plan.

Because God's plan is whatever the humans in charge want.

Yes, it has, unfortunately. I assume you're not an old-testament bible reader, but I'm not trying to be a dick about it. The OT is chock-full of rape and incest - especially involving children. The story of Noah alone is enough to make any modern person choke. I'll elaborate if you want.

EDIT - what? no one wants to talk about Noah? i thought y'all loved Jesus!

Don't forget the genocides and the theocratic totalitarianism.

Especially don't pay attention to homoeroticism of David and Jonathan. They were just good friends.
