Akay, you're repeating the same fallacy many religionists repeat, "what about atheist communist regimes that killed millions?.
1. While communism is, technically, atheistic in nature, the regimes you are talking about, China, Stalin's Russia, Cambodia, North Korea, and others, are all examples of cults of personality where the worship of a deity is replaced with the worship of the state or individual. NK even has its own version of the Christian holy trinity, the father, the son, and the grandson. Hardly atheistic.
2. Very few, if any, were killed in the name of atheism. More control and shutting down opposition. In Cambodia, for instance, many intellectuals were killed. Hardline communism, like hardlne religion, loves the masses ignorant.
3. If you want to see how true socialism can work, just look to much of Europe, Canada, Australia, and NZ.
Now, child brides. While it was somewhat common in some places, that doesn't make it right. Whataboutisms do nothing for your argument.
And it seems wherever we see child brides in the modern world, it's almost always old men marrying them. And why do we never hear about child husbands?
Because the rules for child brides were put in place, and are enforced, by old men.
