I'm sorry to say this, but this kind of parts where rape victims are punished is exactly why I can't take anything in the Bible seriously. The Bible is God's words, and the whole idea of some of its parts being redundant does not make any sense to me. God is supposed to be flawless, after all.

Would God give us permission to ignore "some" of what he says just because we don't agree with it? (like the parts where being gay is considered a disgraceful sin?) I don't think so. I think God would want us to pay attention to every single word in the Bible, and to act accordingly.
