next video.
A girl saying what does she regret about being married at a young age, she says being pulled out of education and she also says she was too young to handle the responsibilities of being married at such a young age, and that she was beaten, but that's also ok according to the quran. She also says she is contemplating suicide if the divorce isn't successful.
Next video another 10 year old girl saying her father forced her to agree to be married (again showing how easily corruptible this Islamic law is) and how she was taken out of school even though she wanted to be there.
Next is a video of a 12 year old who is beaten by her husband a lot, pretty straight forward really.
Islamic laws are not suppose to prevent wrong doings (or else God would have created us as Angels)
Under any systems people will do wrong
Quote:Right now I've stated my case, 9 year olds should be parented and guided away from having sex at such a young age so they can stay in school get an education and wait til they mature a bit mentally before they marry someone who they can flirt with, converse with, fall in love with, maybe when they are a teenager or even later.You don't understand it, some will want and have sex anyway
Quote:So who's argument do you think is the strongest here and who's provided the most evidence of what actually happens when the laws you support actually are put into place?You did not provide any evidence except for a weak argument

Quote:¤ Rape**What do you mean? Islam doesn't allow rape
Quote:¤ Domestic violence**Men are allowed to beat their wives (and children) but not strong and not on face, it something like spanking a child
And if the wife doesn't like too much, she can divorce her husband.
