Did Clark rape Summer?


I didn't think he did, but my friends says he did....

Sorry I meant did Joseph rape summer, not clark

No, he inserted the "hand of God" into her. Note from his position and her general lack of struggling that the act appears to be something so bizarre that she doesn't even know how to react to it. Raping her would have been considered a sin, instead Joseph purifies the child of the sins of his father through a twisted interpretation of the biblical notion of "immaculate conception".

I thought he raped her! I thought that was pretty obvious by her begging him not to and then him saying he had PLANTED HIS SEED so it was like now the baby was his!

Second person I've seen say this. To me it didn't sound like he said he planed his seed but rather that it was as though he planted the seed himself. It was just a way of saying that the child was his now.

Conform or be cast out
