If this is legal in their countries, what is there to complain about? I mean, the idea of a child being married and having sex with a grown man is sickening, but over there, it is seen as acceptable, and their laws don't condemn it.

I dunno Mak, that sure seems like a slippery slope.
Just because their laws don't condemn it doesn't mean it's acceptable. How many laws criminalize us being women loving women?

Doesn't mean it's right, but it's dang sure what has been the "norm" for bunches of years.

While I agree with the invalidity of some of our laws regarding this, moral relativism is not appealing to me, or else their laws restricting women and depriving them of their basic human rights could be considered acceptable.

Pedophilia is both sexual attraction AND sexual activity with children under the age of 13.

You are mistaken. Sexual orientation =/= sexual behavior, and I really couldn't care less what a pedophile thinks in his mind.

All that is necessary for evil to win is for good men [and women] to do nothing.

Kinda mind boggling ain't it that he can just keep on coming up with ways to justify aberrant, disgusting, immoral, damaging, illegal and oh yeah, soul-killing behavior?

You should seriously do some reading on the history of South Africa.

If slavery is legal in some countries, then that is fine. Just because something is legal doesn't make it right, but it also doesn't give us the right to protest just because we abide by a different set of rules.
Really. It doesn't? We have no responsibility to anyone in another country who is being deprived of his/her rights? We can't even PROTEST this?

You need to immediately stop criticizing my country's leadership, and interfering in our elections. WE like it this way, we have always done it this way, and Aussies have no say over who we elect. In fact, it is none of your business who our president is, and your preferences should not even be expressed aloud.

Of course he does. Often people will go through incredible mental contortions to justify aberrant behavior.

I have to disagree. I'm not sure if that's what you mean so I'll wait for a reply first.
Actually, it's the exact opposite.

Like typing? I can understand how that would constitute "incredible mental contortions" to you.
