he seems to condone pedifelia, which makes me think he's a low life slime that would partake in sexual act with a 14 year old if he lived in a state/country where it was legal

Spelling is our friend.

Seems to me you have an argument with God. (And the Church).

Marriages were good enough for 12 year olds before. Approved by society and the church. And girls bodies enable them to breed at age 14.

My point - lost on a Fundie, I'm sure - is that the age of consent is arbitrary. Why is 18 better than 16?

Because you were told so. That's why.
Just like if you were alive before 12 would have been ok. And you'd REACT (not think) the same way about 12 yr olds as you do now about 18 yr olds.

Animal. Not man. Someone pushes your buttons, you get a jolt and react.

Just pointing out ignorance. Pretty easy to do these days.

Just curious... (yeah, I know I'll be sorry I asked) :
Give me an Objective Moral Reason. That the age of consent should be 18.... (is not everywhere in the US, BTW. Bet you didn't know that).... and not 17 and 6 months. Or 19. Or 47. Or 16?

Hint : Because it's the law isn't a valid answer.

I suggest we ask DA to "articulate/explicate" as I've asked him, before answering his false notion of an "objective" reason for age of consent (which merely shows how foolish it is to seek objective answers where answers are validly subjective).

I'll give you a very valid reason, because in this day & age, a 13 yo or even a 16 yo isn't mature enough to make a mature decision.

Yes, just like a lib to pick on spelling & typos. And, yes, I consider you a very liberal person.

As far as slander, I have not slandered you, merely made observations based on your own statements. You need to study the true definition of law. If I am wrong, then you need to change the way in which you express your views because it does appear that you are all for molestation of children.

By the way, marriages were good enough for a 12 year old when people living to the age of 50 was old. When at the age of 12 the "children" were working the fields and new how to make a living....I don't know many 12 year olds now that could move out and make a living supporting themselves, except the likes of Brittany Spears, and even then, she couldn't have done it at 12 if it weren't for her enterage of agents & managers.
