I doubt it, but it doesn't really matter to me if you insist as much. I don't decide whether things are evil, or not, on the basis of whether children enjoy them.
How did marriage turn into rape, exactly?? there is this huge nuance you're already aware of. But for some reason, a grudge, a stereotype in your head you're not willing to talk about, Muhammad committed a horrendous crime by merely marrying. Sunni literature does draw the line between marriage and actual physical intimacy. Reportedly, the consummation took place three years later, she was nine by then.
Sure, I am aware the age of majority is not nine anymore. But back then, this age was based on physical signs of puberty. And that is reasonable, and I really don't see anything repugnant about it, and certainly nothing than can possibly amount to rape.
The thing is, you need more details to build a case for rape. Because, as I said, Quraysh guys back then could distinguish between marriage and rape [duh], they would've tipped off the entire Mecca if Muhammad committed such an unspeakable act, more importantly, you wouldn't have heard of a person called Muhammad, because honor killings were standard practice back then.

The relevant part is that it took a lot of planning to get an alive person. Nobody can honestly wrap their heads around that all the complexity of human anatomy arised from nature playing with itself. Be it a million years long, a billion years, or an infinitely long natural process.
