Thanks bodocea. But I'd still like to know the age of the real brides. Frankly, any arranged marriage disgusts me.
I don't have a problem with arranged marriages if that is their custom. I do know a number of Muslims. In fact, my sister dated one for many years. When he finally asked her to marry him, she decided against it. Shortly after that, he went to Jordan to marry a woman his parents had chosen for him.
My sister and he remained in contact over the years. As he explained it, his parents chose his wife for him, but they had one month to get to know each other to decide if they thought they could be compatible. Had either decided they did not want to marry, the wedding would have been called off. So many pre-arranged marriages are not exactly as we think of them.
And finding out that this was a hoax is pretty disgusting. Many of us have enough issues with Muslims; we don't need false accusations to further our cause. Things like this just shade the real issues that are ligitimate.
Very nice post.
It amazes me the amount of hate by those on here, hunting down anything they can to dehumanize those who think different than them. The word "fanatic" comes to mind.
Of course if this would have been true it would have spread like wildfire. Since it's a hoax, the hate filled Fred Phelps types of the world use their propaganda to promote more fear and hate against those who aren't like them.
Shame on you jent,and your fanatic followers, for posting/believing these lies.
I would point that right back at you Echo. You don't know for a fact if it's real or not, but you sure are fast to go accusing me of doing what you're doing right now.
I said in the beginning I don't know. I don't have to make stuff up but you are.
The only hate I see is yours.
