To be fair to the Mohammadians, the legal age for marriage under Roman law was twelve. So, it's not all that surprising that the Arab religionists codifying their imperialist theology in the 6th and 7th centuries thought fucking children was an acceptable practice. The problem is people like Mystic who try to give a medieval outlook the face of a respectable modern ethic. As far as this dark mist clouding hearts or whatever, in more literal terms I take Mystic to mean: the judgement of liberal, thoughtful, well-reasoned analyst under the yoke of superstitious tradition; people seem to hold almost any tradition with reverence on the mere account of its antiquity... so ironically the victim of this darkness here appears to be Mystic himself.
