Pakistani court allows marriage of kidnapped Christian girl because she had first period

What's your point?

 

You're right, but what about the perfectly legal kidnapping part? Last I check, kidnapping wasn't legal in the US or anywhere in the West.

 

Get used to it! if a democrat gets elected, marriages will be handled the same way here too

 

What way is that?

 

How old was Mary when she conceived Jesus?????

 

So you are okay with the actions of these cavemen wearing dresses?


General age of marriage (without parental or court approval or other exceptions taken into account) (only shows the 50 states, no territories)
18 Blue
19 Green
21 Red

 

Of course I am not

I am merely pointing out that before they tell someone to remove the speck in their eye they had better remove the log in their own

 

Who cares?

We did not know then what we know now about health risks with young pregnancies

And really it did not work out so well for Mary - giving birth in a stable full of farm animals

 

Really? Because a large proportion of those states allowing child marriages are “red”

 

And do you honestly think those 15 year olds being married, often to the older rapist, are doing it of thier own free will?

 

Who kidnapped Mary and forced her into a relationship with an adult?

 

Well no, you're right again, but their parents have at least consented, so presumably they know the scum bag man pretty well, being part of the same, garbage cult most likely. And even though this doesn't ensure that there will be no abuse of any sort, there is a certain amount of parental oversight I would assume. I really don't know enough about how these American child's marriages work. Anyway, you have to admit that you would see them as FAR worse if the girl was kidnapped, but you're right, it's not too far away from being the same as what happens in other countries such as Pakistan. I appreciate the reminder as it is easy to forget.

 

Thank-you

This SHOULD be a world wide issue and we cannot condemn others if our own backyards are full of trash.
And if you read the stories often it is a pastor or friend that they are marrying the child off to

 

I cant believe how posters turn this OP around as an opportunity to bash the USA.
We all know that Pakistan is a toilet, always has been, always will be...
The joint is full of child marriages, rape, honour killings the abuse of women...etc...
The list is endless...and what is prevalent in Pakistan.....islam…..
End of story.....

 

That reminds me of a country where child molesters can marry their victims to get away unpunished. You won't know that country. It is not in the Middle East.

 

USA is great, with or without Trump, regardless of her shortcomings.
But it's definitely wrong to bash other countries because you don't understand them.

 

But again you cannot condemn something in another country if it is happening in your own

It may not be happening as frequently but it IS still happening

 

Gimme a break...you've been bashing the USA since day one with your
claptrap on gun violence...every opportunity you see, you seize it.....

 

None of our business, unless the girl was an american

 

So we should just stop engaging with the world?

 

So it doesn't ALSO remind you of certain countries in the middle east?

 

And do you admit that it would be FAR worse if they were kidnapped? We can even forget about the marriage component to this story - the human waste who run Pakistan actually ALLOW KIDNAPPING!

 

How so?

 

Why do you say that?

 

Some cultures are better than others.
