time to find another arugment to use against islam. the typical "9 years old" nonsense wont, work anymore.
Two days ago the ages of 6 and 9 were defended.....that still happened remember. ahmed even invented an unbiblical parallel with Mary and Joseph to somehow back himself up......that also happened. He threw every 10 second google he could at the argument to justify sex with a small child.
Today, after a bit of googlin and youtubin the age is magically 19 and the 6 and 9 (although previously defended) is now debunked....fantastic!!! Please note that the video author simply manipulates the date range to make his argument work. Plus he prefaces the argument with the notion that "he's refuting the lie that stupid Christians make because they don't understand Islam". LOL, the argument comes straight from Islamic material....there's no intervention on part of anyone else in the world....this is all Islam! This guy is disingenuous from moment one.
Here's another gentleman whose vids have been repeatedly posted.....here's his take:
Essentially for the first 2 minutes Dr. Naik discusses the theory of "19" with the invented concept of the missing ashara (magically adds 10 to 9 making 19....I checked the math) in the hadiths (according to the theories of modern Islamic scholars) and then he quickly comments that the hadiths in the Sahih Bukhari might not be authentic. Yet quickly closes this discussion by aluding to the fact that this notion isn't verifiable either, but that he believes the hadiths are authentic as are the ages of 6 and 9. In a nutshell we refer to this situation as "wishful thinking" on part of Islamic theologians. ahmed has often mentioned how inventive and creative Muslims are....he's right, they invent stuff all the time.
The remaining 3.5 minutes are then dedicated to justifying the "act of marriage" based upon ages of puberty and menstruation in young girls and how climate and other environmental factors influence puberty in girls worldwide. As if achieving puberty and "having Aunt Flo visit" somehow logically justifies the appropriateness of engaging in marriage? He even mentions that in the state of Texas the legal age to marry is 14. Guess what? I live in Texas and the legal age is 18. What he refers to is an instance in which young teens act irresponsibly and get pregnant at 14 and can then marry for the sake of the unborn child provided parental consent is given (none of that is mentioned though)....it isn't the standard it's a one-off disguised as the standard based on audience ignorance....classy.
That said, both videos focus (conveniently) on the "act of marriage at 9", but she was married at 6 and had sex at 9. It's the "act of sex with a child" that isn't mentioned. Fine, the first video author and Dr. Naik indicates marriage at 6 and consummation at 9 once; still, Dr. Naik completely redirects the focus to marriage at puberty. The attempt is to first justify marriage based on early ages of puberty via menstruation and thereby justify sex with the child .....nonsense....logical fallacy...most likely a nonsequitor.
And why bother with the soft, clinical term “consummated”? He had sex with a small girl…..he put his penis in a small child!! In my house that activity earns the perpetrator a quick, forced exit through a wall (a la Willie Coyote on an ACME rocket). Oh sure, physically a female child may hit puberty at 11, but that isn't a golden ticket to have sex with her because her body is “capable” (a completely subjective notion by the way). Children aren't emotionally prepared for such an act and those that claim they are often learn later in life (typically in the care of psychologist) that they weren't prepared. I can recall girls in the 3rd and 4th grade that had early menstruation and they were terrified by that situation in and of itself, but nevermind all that emotional maturity business, right? Aisha was light years beyond her age in maturity....yeah right. Plus it's the prophet Muhammad (pb&j) that engaged in the act so all is good because he's without fault and the perfect, righteous example for all to follow.....nonsense. He made a mistake so own it, learn from it, definitely don’t repeat it and that’s that.
