Physically, we know intercourse with someone that small would have likely damaged her vagina.
What? Pedophilia?? Those dirty Muslims! They should follow good, wholesome Judeo-Christian morals, and stone gays and disobediant children to death. That's how a real civilization functions!
Wait I think they already do that...
Flat out lies, Christains do not stone people to death.
Welcome to my ignore list noob.
Then they aren't real christians are they? Because God clearly demands that you do in the Bible.
:lamo
What is the law? Except in the rarest of cases it is up to judge to uphold the rule of law, nothing else. Whether this is right is for another sphere of gov't.Source: CNN

Saudi judge upholds man's marriage to 8-year-old - CNN.com
Does this surprise anyone? After all this 47 year old man is simply following the example of the pedophile profit Muhammad. Muhammad himself was 47 when he consumated his marriage to nine year old Aisha. Needless to say the civilized world is outraged that this judge refuses for a 2nd time to annul this marriage. The sick twisted 47 year old man says he will not consumate the marriage until the girl reaches puberty.
I first read this story at the following link back in Aug 2008
Court to consider divorce for 8-year-old girl | World News | News.com.au
How is it on topic for you to attack people's religions based on an off-hand phrase like "by the grace of God". Seriously we don't need that crap FOR GOD'S SAKE.Heh.. The reason I asked (a perfectly on-topic question, btw) is because I was afraid you would say something ludicrous.. you know, an utterly false statement like the one that follows:
Yes he does of his chosen people thousands of years ago. This has no relevance to modern Christians in any way.
Unless you can point out where Jesus says stoning children or something similar is OK?
Ephesians 2
20Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;
21Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.
22Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
23For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
24Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
Matthew 5:
28 but I say unto you, that every one that looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
Matthew 18:8-9
8 And if thy hand or thy foot causeth thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee: it is good for thee to enter into life maimed or halt, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into the eternal fire.
9 And if thine eye causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is good for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire.
PS: Those people who need to attack Christianity in this discussion are morons.
Are you aware that most of the Islamic world resides in countries that are developed and don't follow such stone age traditions?
People who need to 'attack' Islam in the same respect, are morons. If you want to call one religions prophet a pedophile, don't get pissed when people contrast it with your religion. Don't cast stones, he who livith in a glass house.
Bull****. I personally am a defender of the ancient and rich tradition of Islam and the Arabs but I do get pissed off that morons keep completely stupidly and irrelevantly attacking Christianity when some other moron attacks Islam. There is no need for it, it serves no purpose and is retarded.
It does serve a purpose, balance. I don't want to promote the idea that only Islam is stupid and corrupt, when they all are. So again, glass houses and stones.
This is totally disgusting and the prophet Muhammad set the example for these perverts. Why people continue to make excusses for this is beyond me.
Well obviously not, but people debate history all the time. And considering history is repeating itself right now with this 47 year old creep who wants to marry an 8 year old little girl, it's pretty darned relevent.
We can only surmise the psychological damage it did to that little girl 2,000 years ago. Physically, we know intercourse with someone that small would have likely damaged her vagina.
I don't mean any disrespect to your prophet, Laila. Clearly you have a love and admiration for him. I just think marriage to a child is grotesque. I think I'm entitled to believe that.
It does to me.
Damn right she was, a very good wife too y'know.
GarzaUK with his usual diversion tactic away from this particular case is attempting to convince us that this happens all over the world amongst many cultures including our own with the likes of Warren Jeffs and such. That may be true and poverty may be part of it. But we are not discussing any other cases or stats on child marriage. This thread is about a specific story. So Garza stop with the typical diversion tactics. We can see right through your agenda of appeasment and excuse making. This case has everyhting to do with religion and nothing to do with poverty.
Oh that's good news! So you'll stop citing the old testament everytime you want to deny gays their rights? Hey I'll take that! And the 10 commandments are obviously moot now as well, good ridance.
You know, the NT was also written for the same people, 2000 years ago as well. So I might just say the NT has no bearing on you either.
Jesus actually says that he is not here to change the old laws, which clearly means he thinks they should still be in effect, no? I will grant you this though, I'am not aware of any NT in which he actively demands other people to kill children, but he does threaten it himself at one point.
Matthews 5:17
Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill.
Revelation 2:23
And I will kill her children with pestilence, and all the churches will know that I am He who searches the minds and hearts; and I will give to each one of you according to your deeds.
Now here is more New Testament goodness:
LOL nice. We BOTH find child marriage terrible. However you went about it as "Look at ISLAM, what a fould religion, promoting child marraige. Ewwww."
My argument is that is poverty that promotes child marriages. And clearly as I have shown with EVIDENCE, that christains, hindi and buddhist people conduct in child marriage. Where is your outcry against these faiths Sgt Rock?? I have shown you data that povery is responsible.
This is weak Sgt Rock. W E A K. Face it I caught you and your agenda out.
I don't like Islam. I find some of its teachings awful. But I am passionate for the truth and knowledge. And the promotion of child marriage cannot be blamed on Islam.
It does to me.
Damn right she was, a very good wife too y'know.
Why do Christians, Hindus and Buddhists take part in child marriages then? Like I have showed it is poverty, not religion.
In fact the Islamic world doesn't seem to be the leader in child marriages.
It is unacceptable and hope all countries fight against it. But to blame it on Islam or any religion is inaccurate.
Prophet Mohammed is not a pedophile.
To judge him nearly 2,000 years after his actions by 21st century standards of morality which has evolved with our growing knowledge is ridiculous and illogical.
But hey, your opinion.
I still love my Prophet.
.... Why bring Prophet Mohammed up?
On topic, Saudi Arabia seriously needs to come to the 21st century. That is just disgusting
A girl can start her periods as early as 9 you know .... :/
Btw, there is no proof over the consumation of a marriage
