And do know that I don't condone child marriage, but @Dee 's accusation are totally bigoted and prejudiced, and not accepting the fact that morality standards of today cannot be projected to 1440 marriage, unless it is stated in Ancient Arab tribal law that child marriage is against the tribal community law, which it wasn't.
So @Dee is being totally illogical and offensive.
I want a practical solution, not sophism here.

That is same as killing, and they didn't had method to determine whether it was boy or girl, so why would they abort? they wanted only male child even if they are poor. Because boys were adopted too and they can get money.
Isn't it why they used to bury the newborns, it was form of abortion but after determining the sex, and the child was alive.
that is again not a valid option.

Because it is still valid, if the already born female is under mortality threat, due to parent's poverty and they don't find alternative options. That is why the whole Islamic morality compass came into discussion, because killing, giving for slavery and brothel of already born daughter is not allowed. And People in Vietnam, and other such places give their daughters for slavery or brothels even now. And there are many tribes that still marry child girls in south Asia. And I was arguing Dee that marriage is better than brothels and slavery IF and ONLY if they don't have options where people willingly take for adoption or get donations.

It is still immoral to force an under aged girl to marry... It was in so in 800CE, in 1400CE and still is immoral today... Whether it's slightly better than to be sold into slavery is irrelevant, it is still immoral... Saying it is better is evading the overall societal problem regarding the value of female human beings in said society...
Slavery was always immoral, the fact that it was legal back then doesn't change a thing, it was, is and will stay immoral to own, trade or sell human beings as property... Same goes for forced marriage of under age girls, making it legal doesn't change the immorality of it, never had and never will... It's just a clumsy way to justify immoral actions.

Paedophilia didn't exist in ancient ages, it was always socially accepted marriages, slaves or brothels. Its a recent trend where you abduct and rape kids... so again your accusations are irrelevant and illogical.
Oh you think a girl can't fall in love with old people? I can personally introduce 6-7 years old who like old men in park and they go and sit in their laps. Do you think there is only pedophilia and not Gerontophilia ?
You are saying I support pedophila? No I don't support any form of -philias. I only support marriage by contract, I don't support love marriage either, because once love is gone then its bye bye.

Make them slaves and give slave status, the are free for sex obviously.
I’m sorry, what? That’s not okay
Make them wives, and give them wife status and you have inheritance and property for wife and if divorce you get alimony. And marrying in early puberty was normal due to high mortality rates.
That’s a little more ok, but still not quite right
Put them in brothels and again for pleasure
That’s really just not right, putting them in a brothel against their will

immoral according to who?
Is death by starving your child moral? moral according to who?
I don't see any societal harm in marrying a child who is about to die for her survival in some remote corner of the world? is your morality standards reaching her and feeding her? NO. Life is more important than some abstract morality or opinions of strangers who are not even helping in elevating the problems of a family. Further, opinions of strangers in tribal customs don't matter, so again your morality becomes impractical to stop child marriages. I have personally seen people asking a hippies tribe about child marriage, and they say its their custom and they don't allow national or state laws to interfere in their customs. So again your morality standards become useless. Plus you said 800 CE and 1400CE there was no child marriage? but history says otherwise, so what happened to immorality then?

Agreed, isn't this why I said it is not recommended but ONLY as a last resort option.
If parents can support, education is priority for any family, till girl reaches legal mature age.This is unanimous in my community.

Ok, here is the thing, what Islamic prophet did was example for his time.
Instead of burying, selling as slave or to brothels, it is better to marry them early, that was for that time. And NO sex till puberty. This is explicit from his actions of waiting 3 years and no impregnation, since that is harmful for young girls. If it was someone else they would just go and bang on wedding night, why do you think he waited 3 years? Is this a characteristic of a paedophile? It is to show others that you don't just marry children for having sex with them, instead it is to support their living, till they reaches sexual maturity.
As for who he marries that is his prerogative. And he preferred his best friend to be his in-law. Did he marry 5-6 young girls? If he was pedo he could do that couldn't he he was ruler of community, he had every right to marry however many he can, but he stopped at 1. Yet you still accuse him.
The same ruling applies if an unfortunate situation happens and a girl child had to get marry early. That is all I am saying, I am not saying everyone should go and and proceed with child marriage left and right. For example, father died, mother can't work and feed her daughters and she has few of them, etc etc....these are all real life situations and each case have different solution.
I have said this before and saying it again, Islamic marriage is not like western marriage, marriage in Islam is a contract, where both male and female side can put conditions in it, and if its a bride's father/mother marrying a child due to financial reasons, they can stipulate the term a guy can't have sex with their daughter and request education and other things before marriage in contract.
Because you don't know the details like I do, you think everything is easy and immoral, there are lots of strings attached to marriage, there is bridal gift/dowry [in form of money] for the girl provided by groom, alimony if divorce occurs, these are all decided in marriage contract before marriage takes place. And after marriage the yearly charity for female is supposed to be done by husband, and this can be given to wife's parents to elevate financial burden.
It is NOT acceptable, It becomes special case scenario where girl is becoming financial burden and under a mortal danger due to hunger in some remote place. But if its in a city in today's society, community can interfere and object and provide financial support and file for divorce on girl's behalf and provide working condition to the family if made publicly aware. It is not that hard...education first, wait for legal state age and then marry. This is current consensus. Because there is no "harm" involved in doing so.

Since you follow subjective [customs or group or herd] morality standards your view is narrow and impractical to real life problems.
Marriage is not sex slavery, it comes with status, education and inheritance and many legal rights. As for homosexuality, it has same ruling as adultery and fornication. And all these three causes social, and communal harm, fornication can result in unexpected pregnancy, if be careless and other medical issues if not careful, adultery can harm and break families, and homosexuality can cause confusing in sexuality in social demographics. How is it helpful in social progression if there is lack of male:female ratios in demographics?
Even your mentor Richard Dawkins says if a person who is already a homosexual, has a child and he raised him with his same sex partner then there is high chance the child will be numb to romance about same sex and have a high chance to activate his homosexual genes [if they exist]. And if both of his "parents" are touchy feely with him then he too might not mind the same from other guys. Meaning environment influences desires. Hence desires or subjective morality is a useless measure to morality, since it can change on other part of the globe, and lack practicality.
Since you guys condone incest obviously you wouldn't mind. Like I said subjective morality is a sorry excuse to fulfil selfish desires.

I personally absolutely prefer Asian women, especially women from such countries as China, Korea and Japan. I find their looks irresistible, their accents adorable, their cultural manners cute, and their general outlook on life refreshing. At the same time, I am a White guy from Eastern Europe living in the US. Such a thing would be an oddity at best, and a deviation at worst, just in the year 1600, yet today no one bats an eye. Norms change.
Today incest is mostly viewed as unacceptable, but chances are in 100-200 years it will be just as common as White-Asian couples are.
The relevant question in the general perspective then is not whether incest is "moral", but whether it is something that harms people. Are there objective health risks incest pose, big enough to discourage it? If the answer is yes, then there is something to talk about. And if the answer is no, then it really is no one's business whether a given individual partakes in it or not.

*****Since you follow subjective [customs or group or herd] morality standards
Yet you said subjective morality is basically each individual doing as they wish which is the opposite of herd morality. 1: 9 billion Muslims though do follow herd morality
******your view is narrow and impractical to real life problems.
How is my view "narrow " when I don't believe in punishing apostasy or blasphemy which is a good example of narrow mindedness?
****Marriage is not sex slavery,
Selling a daughter because you're poor is sex slavery , what term do you put on it?
****it comes with status, education and inheritance and many legal rights.
How refreshing that sex slaves have "rights " in the Muslim world
*****As for homosexuality, it has same ruling as adultery and fornication.
What is wrong with either?
***And all these three causes social, and communal harm, fornication can result in unexpected pregnancy, if be careless and other medical issues if not careful,
So what? Ban car driving then as it comes with risks
****adultery can harm and break families,
It can also improve and enhance families
*****and homosexuality can cause confusing in sexuality in social demographics.
Explain way you mean
*****How is it helpful in social progression if there is lack of male:female ratios in demographics?
How do you define "social progression"? So far you've mentioned nothing but regressive policies
****Even your mentor Richard Dawkins
Another statement , how is Dawkins my mentor?
Why would I care what Dawkins said on the matter?
****says if a person who is already a homosexual, has a child and he raised him with his same sex partner then there is high chance the child will be numb to romance about same sex
Supply the quote where Dawkins said this?
Maybe also send him an email as it's his argument not mine and I bet he never said it
******and have a high chance to activate his homosexual genes [if they exist].
Dawkins never said that why are you lying?
Post up the quote bet you cannot
*****And if both of his "parents" are touchy feely with him then he too might not mind the same from other guys.
Thats nonsense , and just your opinion how do you come about it?
****Meaning environment influences desires. Hence desires or subjective morality is a useless measure to morality, since it can change on other part of the globe, and lack practicality.
But all morality is subjective which is why it changes and evolves as humanity and societies do , slavery was once commonplace what changed that?
*****Since you guys condone incest obviously you wouldn't mind.
Where is the wrong in consensual incest do explain?
*****Like I said subjective morality is a sorry excuse to fulfil selfish desires.
In the U S in the 60's blacks suffered segregation the good people of the U S came to a conclusion over time this was wrong beacause people like the great Martin Luther King and others made powerful argumentation as to the immorality of it , so do tell how did the realisation of racial segregation as being wrong fullfill a "selfish" desire?
Remember your appeal to an objective morality has you justifying why sex slavery is right exactly the way Christians used the bible to justify it also

then where is the wrong in consensual child marriage? They both same, you are having sex with someone your child's or grand child's age. How do you know sex in marriage is not consensual, when the person is sexually reached puberty? And I am sure you know what puberty means....mean they have sexual desires now.
The thing is what you prefer was not socially accepted and what you reject was and is still socially accepted in many tribes.
And I don't prefer either.

***watch his video on homosexualty and evolution....he basically said "environmental factors have high chance to govern the preference".
You claimed Dawkins said .... Richard Dawkins says if a person who is already a homosexual, has a child and he raised him with his same sex partner then there is high chance the child will be numb to romance about same sex and have a high chance to activate his homosexual genes
Demonstrate where he mentioned “homosexual genes “? Where is the link to the video where he made the quotes you claim
***And it took 20min to get that conclusion....and I never said being homosexual is wrong...
Post up the video
Right , so you agree Islamic teachings on such are immoral?
***I said it has adverse affect on social demographics in long run and disadvantageous for social progression.
I asked you to prove that statement you cannot?
****Do you even know what that means?
I do , you obviously don’t
***I don't appeal to objective morality, I appeal to morality linked to "harm", which can be both objective and subjective.
How is it objective? Give examples if you can?
So you agree there’s nothing wrong with subjective morality?
Every previous point you made you now disagree with .....interesting

pick any Muslim or 10 and ask him if he knows the core principle of Islamic morality compass, they won't be able to answer you, In-fact 90% won't be able to answer, because they don't read their own theology, and jurisprudence. They too follow cultural grouping.
In Islamic jurisprudence, it is obligatory for men to pay dowry, but in south Asia - non Muslims women pay dowry and Muslim follow same culture, the bride pays more dowry compared to husband. So basically they don't know anything about the original Islamic jurisprudence and they are unwilling to listen since its cultural norm. Only people who study knows.
And I know that its core principle is neither objective nor subjective morality but is linked with harm.
Meaning any action that is causing, physical or severe emotional harm comes under immoral category. That include, incest, forced sex, child abuse, devoid of education, beating husband/wife, fornication, adultery, homosexuality, excessive materialism, alcohol, gambling, interest... these might be okay if you take objective or subjective morality but if it is linked to action harm....none of them falls under moral standards because they have damages from personal harm all the way to familial, social, communal and national harm, statistically in the long run. You are free to test it.
Knowledge is power, and current Muslim community lacks that.
And since Islamic prophet was the one who conferred with such a morality standard by Quran, it is impossible for him to abuse child, because by doing so he is breaking the moral code of Quran itself...Which westerners and Muslims themselves don't understand, only few scholars know, and even if they say, people will act deaf eared like you people are doing in this thread. Instead of understanding you are bringing this and that as your supplementary evidence, which is irrelevant.

***then where is the wrong in consensual child marriage?
I know you proudly claimed that you know of 7 and 8 year olds in your Muslim society who desire older men and sit on their knees in public parks and this is accepted by followers of Islam. Over here kids of that age play with dolls exactly the way Aisha did before Muhammad abused her.
Do you honestly think kids daily concern is sexual desire for older men? It seems to be a Muslim thing
***They both same, you are having sex with someone your child's or grand child's age
I don’t agree with child sex as I keep saying children do not consent to sex except in your Muslim societies it seems
. ****How do you know sex in marriage is not consensual, when the person is sexually reached puberty?
Is a 7 ,8 year old ready to consent .....wait you’ve answered that
****And I am sure you know what puberty means....mean they have sexual desires now.
Yes I know you keep saying you and your buddies know of 7,8 year old girls who desire you’s , that’s called a peadophile ring in civilized societies
****The thing is what you prefer was not socially accepted and what you reject was and is still socially accepted in many tribes.
And I don't prefer either.
I know , yet you claim to know kids that want sex with you ......

Why are you decreasing 1 year? its 9 year with 3 years of fostering love. It takes few minutes to fall in love and you are saying 3 years is too short?

****again irrelevant, pubertal children only think of sex, the get horny at least 3-4 times a day, more if they view graphic images, I was pubertal when 11 and I know.
Really? 7, 8 9 year olds , have you a study backing this up?
***/Why are you decreasing 1 year? its 9 year with 3 years of fostering love. It takes few minutes to fall in love and you are saying 3 years is too short?
Incorrect , Aisha was 9 when the marriage was consummated unless Muslim sacred books are lying are they ....Aisha was just six years old when she was betrothed to Muhammad, himself in his 50s, and only nine when the marriage was consummated.
***/Again irrelevant, I was never taking civilised society when discussing child marriage,
Right so which societies are you talking about as you keep avoiding naming them why’s that?
***you are again being prejudiced towards poverty stricken people in a round about way.
Right , so my concern about children being sexually abused is “prejudiced” how so?
You just said they were uncivilized what makes them so? You keep disagreeing with your own it’s hilarious to watch
****Why are you so apathetic to poor folks who are in crises of starvation?

You are not very bright with nuances in different statuses I see.
Tribal societies of Bangladesh, India, Vietnam, Pakistan, and Thailand irrespective of religion. You don't travel much do you? That is why your world wide view is limited to your own community, which is pathetic and you claim you are moral when you don't care about other people in other parts of he world.
you keep saying 8 years age in every post before, now you are correcting me it is 9 when I asked you why you are decreasing the age of consummation? Pot calling kettle black?
I said 11 and you saying 7,8, 9? do you have problem understanding numbers? I am talking about sexual urge of myself not others, any yes I can say puberty depends on environmental factors, read paper by Marisa M. Fisher and Erica A. Eugster.

That is not morality that is sociology of what we think and practice what is right and wrong. Morality should be true right and wrong, to have a standard that can define if we are progressing as society or not. And Inter racial marriage was never wrong from moral perspective that is again the sociology or cultural/group influence.
For example cannibalism is moral in remote islands disconnected from civilisations, but it does not make it inherently right, hence immoral.
Another example, few decades ago sentinellies from Islands near India used to kill everyone close to them thinking them as enemies, but now they are more approachable. The sociology of what they think and practice has changed not morality that you can't kill your enemies.
There are many examples here https://www.speakingtree.in/allslides/sex-rituals-from-around-the-world
which are all moral to do, But any person who loves their wife wouldn't want to share her, and any women who loves her husband doesn't want her husband to go to another wife, so is it moral to do so forcefully because the sociology of that tribe think its alright? The question is "Is subjective morality alone with cultural norm right standard to measure morality or not?"
So morality itself that is every changing is flawed if it doesn't have any standard to compare it with to check if its progressive or digressive to society. Similarly morality which is objective and too rigid and aligned with the true morality is also flawed as it never socially progresses.

***No I mean why you are so unfair to someone dying?
Ahhh , they’re dying now so selling their child is necessary , why if they’re dying are they selling their kid you dummy?
****and again your labelling is wrong,
Selling your child for sex is sex slavery you dummy
***sex slavery is distinct category and so is plain slavery and so is prostitution. Marriage is entirely different, it mean male and female has equal rights.
But you admitted selling your child wax fine once you’re a Muslim do you know what slavery even means you dummy?
****You are not very bright with nuances in different statuses I see.
Yet I’m the one knows the difference what a peadophile is , you actually admire them .....nuances in status ....Bwaaaaaaahahahahahaha
***/Tribal societies of Bangladesh, India, Vietnam, Pakistan, and Thailand irrespective of religion. You don't travel much do you?
Yet Pakistan and Bangladesh are Muslim where child brides are a norm , also where is your evidence that kids in the other countries of their own free will look for older male lovers? Bet you have none as usual
***/That is why your world wide view is limited to your own community, which is pathetic and you claim you are moral when you don't care about other people in other parts of he world.
Yet I’ve been all around the world and if I don’t care how come you’re the one openly supporting peadophillia and I’m against?
**** you keep saying 8 years age in every post before, now you are correcting me it is 9
Actually she was given to Muhammad when she was 6 the 53 year old peadophile consummated the marriage when she was 8 or 9
***when I asked you why you are decreasing the age of consummation? Pot calling kettle black?
What are you on about you dummy?
****I said 11 and you saying 7,8, 9? do you have problem understanding numbers? I am talking about sexual urge of myself not others, any yes I can say puberty depends on environmental factors, read paper by Marisa M. Fisher and Erica A. Eugster.
