HOWEVER, what I do not understand and what grosses me out is a person's adherence to that one religion such as Islam that they are willing to put everyone else down because of the misguided and totally WRONG notion that they are made somehow better by that certain religion! I would NEVER, EVER flaunt something as unclearly good/wrong, normal/perverse as religion is. I would NEVER subscribe to something that allows three-year-olds to be fucked by a grown man ... or something that praises a clear PEDOFILE. Yes, I am especially bewildered by what is happening to innocent children in these books.
'Aishah (RA), even if we were to assume that she was nine when she began living with the Messenger (SAWS) and his family in Madinah, was extremely fortunate that she married someone who didn't allow her intellect to go to waste. Modern non-Muslims denounce this marriage frequently, but can they point to anything negative that came of it? It was a happy marriage and one that ultimately resulted in 'Aishah's own political and religious leadership and her transmission of an enormous amount of information that would form the basis of Islamic law.
So, you are basically saying you would be ok with someone 'marrying' your nine-year-old daughter? Or what are you saying? The man that sexually abused a friend of mine from the age of 5 until the age of 9 also cared of her education, claimed he 'loved her', bought her things ... which doesn't change anything about THE FACT he was and still is a SICK bastard. While life and world is not black and white, some things are simply either right .... or wrong. And in this case I think it goes without a debate.
And no, I would personally not be able to get over the fact that my prophet, the perfect man that I'm supposed to follow, fucked a child. Which doesn't mean that everything that he taught was totally wrong ... I would simply not be able to find it in me to call myself 'muslim' if that entailed my 'prophet' being a perv. But then, I guess we don't know that for sure and maybe you 'believe' in your bleeding heart of hearts ... that he wasn't.
And maybe, just maybe, it's all just bullshit to begin and end with.
