Certainly you can't touch a woman for a week a month around her period because at that point she's unclean. Also every time you shoot your wad you're unclean till sundown, too. (Don't know what happens if the sun's already set. The Bible/Torah don't specify.) Also, you're fully entitled to invade an enemy's territory, kill all the men and abduct (or kill) all the girls. You can then have one of the woman as a 'slave' in your tent but if you want to keep her after a year you have to marry her. Result! Eleven months of free rapeage!
Blah blah blah women not allowed to talk in Church blah blah blah widows should remarry because they won't be able to control their lusts blah blah blah stone homosexual men blah blah blah kill a woman if she was raped in town because she could have shouted for help and obviously didn't blah blah blah men should have short hair because I the great Paul the Apostle who Never Met Jesus am going bald blah blah.
Feel free to dig around in the great holy books of all three religions -- and probably most others but I know squat about them. You can find crazy shit in the lot of them that fucking psychos and retards believe.
edit: Check Leviticus 15:16-33 for the original point. That's part of the Pentateuch/Torah and in both Jewish and Christian dogma -- and is almost certainly the root of the Islamic restrictions too.

This is why I hate anyone stupid enough to be religious.
They're like politicians - they're all the same. All religious people are judgemental, holier-than-thou idiots. The teaching of all religion is that it is right and anyone who believes otherwise is wrong and therefore a sinner. So anyone who tells me that they follow that religion is automatically telling me that they perceive me as a sinner and that I think incorrectly.

is that they're immediately telling me that I'm wrong and stupid -- except that they're the ones who have swallowed something written in a book by a goatherder 3000 years ago and then will warp their interpretation of everything they encounter to force it to fit their beliefs. The sheer lack of critical thought depresses me much more than it angers me these days. I used to try and put forward what I saw as reason to people but I just gave up in the end. :(

It's not so hard to find a buyer for you
When money talks you're under its spell
Ah, but what do you have when there's nothing left to sell?

There are probably a lot more people who practice Christianity that believe in Science than don't. It depends how you apply your religion that is the issue. I have as much of an issue with miltant atheists shouting at people who may believe the teachings of a religion for being fools, despite not knowing why they practice their religion. Some people need guidance, and like the lessons that some religions teach. There is absolutely fuck all wrong with that. If you need a book written 2,000 years ago to help you deal with life, who the fuck is anyone to tell you you can't?

I tell my wife to shut the fuck up in Church and that I'm her head because she's the descendant of Eve and sinned first and was born of ME, whereas I am a descendant of Adam and was born of God and am her head just as God is MY head. I'll also divorce her if she ever fucks around on me and she'll be left to starve by the street so long as everyone else is a good Christian, but I'm perfectly free to fuck whoever I want to.
