Muslim Child Brides

[Dotard]

I brought this same subject up a couple times but did not tie it into religion, I attempted to tie it into subjective morality, the subjective definition of a "child".

I only got one response, which I expected responses would be low due to the difficult/uncomfortable question of morality, from Pad. Only thing he did was define a common age of consent which really didn't answer the question posed at all.

Well, he did state "No" to the question would he be a child molester if he had sex with a child who was declared 'legal age of consent' by the country she resided in. So..............

Based on that response, in Yemen if that "legal age" were 10/11/12 then he would not be a child molester/rapist.

Who draws the defining line? You? Me? The leaders of their perspective countries?

In MY humble opinion the age of consent is between 16-18. According to THIS list it seems I am in agreement with a majority of U.S. State leaders. So I cannot help to wonder where is the outrage over Idaho and Hawaii allowing men to have sex with 14 year old girls? FOURTEEN! Is there any among you all here that are over the age of 30 that would argue a 14 year old is NOT a child?

I think it is because a religion got into the mix is what is causing this outcry.

A 25 year old man gains the consent of a 14 year old girl and they have sex. CHILD MOLESTER! RAPIST! CUT HIS BALLS OFF! TOSS HIM IN THE HOOSEGOW! Move two states over and everything is hunky-dory. It's O.K., you can bang the hell outta her with out worry over being jail-baited.

Let that man be a priest or a muslim in a far-away land and it's back to the 'cut his balls off' mentality no matter what the definition of legal age in the land they are in is.

I don't get it.
