Haha, no!
Post 1588 is this one, copied and posted:
"I do not think there is a particular line drawn in stone on what kind of age differences a married couple can morally have. It is not always-and-everywhere-no-matter-what, ok. It can depend on culture, emotional/physical maturity of the girl, how respectfully the man handles it, etc.
Obviously in 21st century America this would be immoral, both because of the culture and because it is against the law. But I can see how in a totally different culture it can be different.
I do agree with all of you that this in particular is subjective.
Another thing I think is subjective is the standards of modesty. I think it'd be immoral if I walked around my neighborhood block topless wearing fig leaves over the bottom, but I do not think it is moral that the indigenous people do this in their "neighborhoods"."
Our numbers must be different for some reason.
Ahh, thank you. Yeah I don't know whats up my end. Anyhow I see your point, but this isn't a case of culture is it? Co-habitation is forbidden in all cultures, some things are always sins according to social teaching right? Co-habitation is one of them, and unless some sexual action took place there was no marriage meaning it took place.
