     Reply #120 - July 13, 2014, 02:44 PM

    I had friends reading at college level when they were nine. Per what you say, they were old enough to be married off, due to their comprehension?
    I should perhaps never be married. Because I do not understand how a man should correct his wife if she is not obedient, and indeed I do not understand the necessity of obedience from one adult to another, at all.


    I said the minimum age of marriage is the age a person can understand the verses of the Quran and no just be able to read. That is literacy and not mental maturity.

    Another words, what is the minimum age for the Quran like you would have for movie age criteria.

    What. So if a five-year-old to thirteen-year-old has the "mental maturity" to understand the Quran, you'd support her getting married to an adult at any of those ages? And as for the vast majority of adults that you believe do not understand the Quran, are we at a good age for marriage?

    I fear you'll actually try to answer those questions if you don't ignore me again, so let me just ask you if you can see why the "can you understand the Quran test" just might not be the best way to gauge if a person is ready for marriage and the consummation of that marriage?

    But then, acording to your account, only YOU and a handful of Quranists truly udnerstand the Quran right?

    Can you not see the flaw in your own logic? I mean, suppose I said that so long as a woman understands the message of George Orwell's 'Animal Farm' then she is ripe for marraige and all the other things it accompanies.

    Why is this restricted to women - gender discrimination - why not this proviso for young boys too.

    But then Allah says:

    (3:7) "He sent down to you this scripture, containing straightforward verses - which constitute the essence of the scripture - as well as multiple-meaning or allegorical verses. Those who have perversity in their hearts will pursue the multiple-meaning verses to create confusion, and to extricate a certain meaning."

    These are verses that no one understands. But, dear Allah, we are unsure of that which you made clear...how can young girls clear this up. Anyway, you are assuming that Aishah was mentally mature. Prove it.

    there's a verse that mentions pre-menstrual wives. Quran allows men to marry children.

    Quran 65:04

     "And (as for) those of your women who have despaired of menstruation, if you have a doubt, their prescribed time shall be three months, and of those too who have not had their courses; and (as for) the pregnant women, their prescribed time is that they lay down their burden; and whoever is careful of (his duty to) Allah He will make easy for him his affair."

    And do not marry those whom your fathers married, except what has already occurred. Indeed, it was an immorality and hateful [to Allah ] and was evil as a way.

    Prohibited to you [for marriage] are your mothers, your daughters, your sisters, your father's sisters, your mother's sisters, your brother's daughters, your sister's daughters, your [milk] mothers who nursed you, your sisters through nursing, your wives' mothers, and your step-daughters under your guardianship [born] of your wives unto whom you have gone in. But if you have not gone in unto them, there is no sin upon you. And [also prohibited are] the wives of your sons who are from your [own] loins, and that you take [in marriage] two sisters simultaneously, except for what has already occurred. Indeed, Allah is ever Forgiving and Merciful.

    I am not sure what do you mean.

    You just quoted what I mean. Under your guardianship. Mahram. Is what I mean.

    How exactly does one determine this? Nothing in Quran is too difficult for a child to understand. If one has imagination and intelligence and can read, one can understand it. My kids understand every movie out there, just some movies give them nightmares. Do you mean when the Quran does not give you nightmares, then you know you are old enough?

    Apparently, when you are old enough for your husband to play dolls with you, and to let your friends come in to play dolls with you, then you are old enough.
    Oh wait. I forgot that Quranists ignore history and all historical accounts and dispute all claims to historical accuracy. Because if it is not in Quran, it never happened.

    What is so crap about this entire argument about age for marriage is that mental maturity to understand a book can happen very young for some people, but their physical maturity to handle penetration has not.

    Bigmo you are ignoring the fact that the body is involved in the process of sex, not the mind  (yea yes people, the mind is obviously a part of it, I just mean the body matters a whole lot in this situation).  Are you saying that genius children who graduate long before their peers, because they have shown the mental ability to understand a range of mature books and information, have the physical ability to be penetrated without long term physical damage from tearing, potential life long sterility due to said damage, and an increased risk of cervical cancer the earlier that penetration occurs?

    ^Just another example of yet another Islamic concept becoming outdated, therefore proof it is not a divine revelation..  that's why we have age restrictons on marriage today at 16+ years to make sure by this age a child is mature enough to bear child and deal with a relationship.. Although i would like to see an age restriction of 35 for guys to reach the age of maturtity lol we're getting there slowly

    Grin  To be honest, taking it as a whole still doesn't answer the question. 

    A woman's age for marriage is never mentioned.  Nothing alluding to it, like if 4 witnesses say she is mentally mature etc etc, like the slippery arguments he uses to downplay domestic violence.  Just silence on the matter.

    Except when it discusses how to handle divorcing one, and the rules if she has never bled before.

    Unless it is in Bigmos special translation.

    Exactly, but Bigmo doesn't understand this, can't argue against it, and so he will likely not respond to it.

    The thing you said earlier is something he should more identify with, as a "Quranist."

    Bigmo, either show us where it says anything about being able to understand the Quran as proof of mental maturity as a requirement for marriage, or admit that you just pulled that out of thin air and distorted the Quran's message like you believe the Sunnis and Shia do to fit your immediate desires. Don't embarrass Quranism further, show some honesty and integrity and do one or the other.

    The foundation of Bigmo's morality, like most theists, is built almost entirely upon the saintliness of his saint. This image must be maintained and defended or else the entire system starts falling apart. But Bigmo has a problem. His saint is a child rapist. This singular fact demolishes any notion of saintliness. But for whatever reason – loyalty, pride, family/community repercussions, deep emotional investment in his worldview, unwillingness to adapt and evolve, whatever – he cannot denounce his saint.

    So his course of action is to find ways of portraying the child rape as not child rape. Trying different angles for ways to undermine the gravity of the charge, exploiting any ambiguity he can, muddying the waters, diverting attention away, smokescreening, filibustering, chicanery, reverse-engineering it. Damage limitation becomes a doctrine in itself. His theology becomes some rickety, jury-rigged, patchwork monstrosity, barely holding together, but that'll do for him. It doesn't matter if it's not truth. It doesn't need to be true. It just has to satisfy other needs, like keeping the idea of saintliness in play just enough so that he doesn't have to abandon the entire dogma system.

    He's like Wile E Coyote. He's gone over the edge of the cliff, completely overshot the limits of his ability to defend his position, running and running with no ground beneath him as long as he can, self-deluding himself that, if he just keeps bullshitting, he wont fall.

    Too fucking busy, and vice versa.

    There is lots of references like this in the Talmud. The idea is that physical maturity is what accounts for woemn and not mental maturity.

    Sunni Islam simply traced their tradition to Muhammad to give it authority while Shias (who do not believe Aisha was 9 when she married) traced their tradition to the prophet's household while Judaism to some Rabbinic authority.

    All of them believe that mental maturity is not needed and physical maturity is what is needed. They differ in how they raced that tradition. Sunni Islam only recognizes prophetic authority unlike Shias who have 12 Imams and Judaism who believe in rabbinic authority.

    Do not patronize me. Respect me like I respect you.


    Firstly, what is so patronizing about holding you to the standard you claim for yourself? Your job as a Quranist is to uphold the Quran without inventing nonsense like every eligible woman has to have the mental maturity to understand the Quran before you sleep with her.

    Secondly, if I only have to show you the level of respect you showed me, I think we're still fine. I was polite to you in the beginning, and your immediate response was to be "patronizing" to me, and ever since then I've seen you do little but ignore me and other members, unless you get it in your head to harass and bully a particular one. If this is your idea of respect, no wonder you have a problem with how we're receiving you here. Grin

    Finally, you did not prove your point at all with your lazy explanation. You made a giant leap because you want it to be true. If I still believed in God, I'd be more careful than to make things up like that and pass it off as His words. The Quran was clearly addressing the men with those verses, and the commands of marriage are primarily for the man to know and enforce, and it says nothing about the woman/girl he chooses for marriage being at the age where they understand the Quran.

    I understood far more complex ideas when I was 10 than the simple ideas of married presented in the Quran. More so this creates an issue. Since by your own words many do not understand marriage in the proper context as you have. Their marriages are invalid as are their claims to maturity. Also by this ignorance many husbands have committed acts of rape and unlawful marriage as their wives were ignorant of the above thus lawfully unable to consent to marriage.
