Ahhh, a member of the Christian Talaban, huh? Yet, you paint yourself as a libertarian.


Sorry. You’ll have to explain what remark prompted you to come to that conclusion and justify why it leads there.

“The answer to your question is, yes, I believe parents should be allowed to do that.[force their underage girls to marry.- - gsdlover] I wouldn’t. I don’t think it is the correct course of action, but it is something that I think is none of my business.”

There are a lot of things that are none of our business, yet we have rules against them - like murder and rape because they infringe on another’s rights. Yet, you take the Taliban position of supporting a parent’s right - make that a man’s right - to force a child to marry. You totally disregard the right of the young woman. As a Christian, you realize that if forced to marry, then her only option “out” is divorce. Not a good thing. Hey, I’m sure not all members of the Taliban make their daughters marry someone against their will, but you can bet they all support the right to do so.

In this country, you are like the person who says “I’m personally opposed to abortion, but believe it should be legal for 9 months of pregnancy.”

You either support it or you don’t. You do.

Very Taliban-ish.
