I guess you never read verse 34, because it says that they got their father drunk
before they went in to lay with him. Remember that the Bible means nothing unless
you read the whole book.
How convenient. That's how most cults get started by refusing to read the whole
Bible, instead of just quoting little phrases that give you an excuse to do
wrong. Remember, you cannot discredit the Bible because it has been tried by GOD
already so that it will be without reproof.

Unfortunately the only way some people can feel comfortable with their sins is to
try to discredit the One Who created them, and wants to see His reflection in
them.
GOD Bless
