"Because of my own situatedness as a human...I recognize my limitations in being able to determine when an incidence of dog humping qualifies as rape."
I am just going to point out that many who self identify as Jews use the fallacy of equivocation by changing the definition of torah and that when they say Torah they usually do not mean the pentateuch or the old testament but something else. For example they will say the Torah teaches something when it is not taught in the pentateuch (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy) nor the old testament but instead somewhere else such as the Talmud then people will think it is in the old testament when it is not because they also call the Pentateuch the Torah.
I would call the Christian old testament the Tanakh as I sometimes do but I am not sure if there is a secret double meaning to Tanakh also that I am unaware of.
