Superego: 2 points-

1, what is the youngest age a woman should marry at. I see you accept US states that allow 13 and less, but ask for the gap with the husband to be miniscule?

2. I see that you are worried about a gap of 50-14= 36?


Ok, I guess we don't need to discuss the youngness of the bride as you are ready to slave to the US accepted young age, 0-13, so let's consider the gap of 36.

Here may be some things, do you disapprove?:

So is it gap or minimum age, or is it a unique combination of gap+minimum age that happens in Africa that troubles us?

toluene12: The o.p looks to me like someone trying to justify his pedo.philic lifestyle but has failed to convince nobody.
First, it's ridiculous when people keep refering to the legal age of marriage in the western world. Those laws u people keep quoting are for 2 minors/teenagers who wants to get married and not an adult getting married to marry a minor. Try and present ur childbride b4 a judge in new york and see how he will scrutinize ur case. The child will be snatched away from u and she will be pressurised to say u're trying to force her into marriage. U will be chained, thrown into jail and made to admit to being a sex offender for the rest of ur life.
2. Early marriage does not protect anybody from bre.ast cancer rather it puts the girl at risk of cervical cancer- something u conveniently failed to mention. Prolonged exposure to estrogen isn't the only risk factor associated with bre.ast C.A. Genetic mutation, familial predisposition and presence of some specific genes play bigger roles. Stop reading or quoting manipulated and unsubstantiated reports as facts. I've managed many women with bre.ast C.A and majority started having children quite early.
3. VVF is not the only obstretics complication associated with teenage pregnancy, these poor girls are also at risk of premature labour, pelvic dislocation, nerve compression and its subsequent limb paralysis during labour. The fact remains menarche is one of early sign of secondary sexual xtics of a girl, other part of the body are still developing and she's in no way ready to carry a baby in her womb.
4. Its funny when people keep saying early marriage is a solution to premarital sex. What happened to sex education, parental care and monitoring, good moral upbringing, women empowerment so that they don't become vulnerable and child rights protective laws.
5. Early marriage and teenage pregnancy is a fast and easy route to poverty. Most of this girls dont stay long in their husband's home. They are kicked out once their husband gets tired of their chidish behaviours. With no education, or any formal training, she and her children becomes liabiity to the society and simply adds to the burden of poverty inflicting the nation.
6. I agree that teenage pregnancy is not uncommon in the western world, but its mainly found among the low socio economic class and the truth remains they are a huge burden to both the health and social welfare system. There4 teenage pregnancy is something that should be discouraged globally and not encouraged.
7. Why should a teenager be idle? A teenager should be in school receiving education. Be it a rural or urban community, its the duty of the govt to ensure every child is in school learning and not roaming around the street. Every child should be entitled to at least 12 years of education. By the time she completes this, she should be 18 yrs and thus free to decide what to do with her life as an ADULT.
8. Culture is dynamic, its never static. That my grandfathers practiced it does not mean the trend should continue. If i consider the practice detrimental then i should stop it. I dont care the age Mary or Aisha were impregnated, maybe it was acceptable during their time but not anymore. In this modern era it has been established both scientifically and socially that a girlchild and marriage are diametrically opposite and ther4 irreconciliable.

9. I didn't bother to read ur definition of pedo.phile because i know it wont make sense but anyone who derive sexual pleasure from pain inflicted on an innocent child either inside marriage or illegally is not only a pedo.phile but also a beast and a sick social pervert.

solidbroda: Stupid!!! Was Nastrodemus a prophet before he predicted happenings in the world centuries before? Was Newton a prophet when he made electricity? Was Faraday a prophet when he made an object to fly?

We all have different gifts. Gift of foresight, of knowledge, of peace. All natural gift. Because a man is able to predict the future does not qualify him a prophet.

Finally, not every pastor performing signs and wonders is a true prophet or man of God!
