Great post, your last paragraph says it all. Racist, vindictive, child bride loving story tellers write the Bible for future white supremacist, pedo, war mongers to follow.
Except one thing: Child Brides don’t exist anywhere in the Bible. Pedophiles like Joseph Smith added scripture to justify preying on young teen girls in his Book of Mormon Bullshit.
That same book of fables includes a story of a married virgin giving birth whose age is estimated by believers to have been as young as 12, which is consistent with acceptable practice at that time and place.
these people, who are not true christian’s, have squealed for years that they are oppressed and and can’t freely practice their faith! BS of the first order. those who push hate & division should be shunned, no matter their faith

Does this mean I'm right? The Bible is a book of hearsay written by old men? Funny how they're so into the old testament's judgemental reteric and completely ignored the teachings of Jesus.
I will admit, that at age 16, as a red-blooded, heterosexual male, I "drooled" over 16- and 17-year-old models, including my unrelieved crush on the one in my high school graduating class.
She gave up modeling to become my niece's teacher, which was an amusing irony.
However, 70-year-old men should NEVER..."DROOL"...OVER YOUNG GIRLS.
On Saturday, July 26th, American families in every corner of the country will come together in peaceful marches, rallies and events to say: our families come first, and we will protect each other.
In all 50 states and Washington DC, we will put care over the cruel cuts and attacks on families that we’re seeing from Congress and the White House. We’re committing to ensuring that every one of our friends and neighbors knows they are not alone, and hears what’s at stake for families in our country right now.
Sign up to host or attend an event NOW to fight for our families and our future. Search "Families First" on Mobilize.us.
The tRump is the leader of the American White Supremacists. When he exposes his hate he unleashes the hate in his entire regime of MAGAts and through the world. I know this first hand because he has unleashed the hate in me. I hate this mother fuckin rapist, racist white supremacist, homegrown treasonous, felonious criminal, demented demonic, destructor of democracy, idiotic, imbecile Limp Dick Traitor. I told you that I am filled with hate. There are still too many haters in this country and yes I am one of them. For most of my life I have fought to suppress the side of me. I have been able to control it for the most part and I hope I will again someday! The hate is passed down from generation to generation. I was able to end this in my family but not in myself.
My father, who was not black, was a racist. He hated white people because of the way they have historically treated everyone else. Dad's voice has always lived inside my head, spewing his hate. I used his voice to remind me, not to let my kids grow up that way.
I told my children that everyone is good and everyone is bad. Some are more good, some are more bad. But you will never know who is good and who is not until you get a chance to know them. Until you give them a chance to know you. My kids know that you can't tell, the good from the bad, by the way they look. They were taught to take the side of the underdog. I taught them not to let the bad kids influence them. They learned that they didn't need bad kids in their lives no matter how popular they seemed to be. They knew that I would always stand by and advocate for them.
I was shocked by the number of adults who are still afraid to go to the principal's office, even on behalf of their own children. So my kids learned that we are all equal regardless of our status. That the principal, doctors, officers and even the President work for us. We choose them to lead, care, teach and keep us safe! My kids know that we pay them to work for us.
Führer tRump is destroying all of this for the next generation. For the first time, I am glad to know that I will never be a grandmother. Never in my life have I felt so much hate. My Dad's angry voice bitchin about white trash is louder than it has ever been before. I don't want to hate white people. I know you can't judge a book by it's cover. I know not all white people are bad. But the demonic monster in the White House makes me feel that - DADDY WAS RIGHT!
The racists, white supremacists, the evil MAGAts, the greedy Oligarchs and wannabe oligarchs. They have come out of the shadows and walk openly upon the earth. They know El tRump will protect them! Some of them belong to the shameful tRump's Gestapo ICE Brigade. They hide their faces, don't wear uniforms, don't carry badges, don't have warrants, drive unmarked cars and the humans they pick up disappear without due process. I believe there are laws about this kind of behavior but of course the Limp Dick Traitor protects those who are evil like him. You would think that our police who have the legal authority to arrest these masked cowards (who are invading peaceful communities across the country) would be making arrests around the clock. Especially now that American citizens are silently disappearing too (see the video below). Unfortunately, we all know we have a problem with hatefilled racist Police Officers too. There must be some officers that really meant there oath to protect and serve all of us. Please real, trained, badge carrying US officials protect us all from these illegal goons posing as public servants. Arrests unidentified ICE thugs. Never be a tRump. Be kind. Be heroes!l
Thanks to Substack writer Michele for sharing this story about missing American citizens by Christina's Tea Talk.
Let's make Good Trouble and Strike! We must stop The tRump and his administration from hell! The demonic tRump and his billionaire oligarch only care about money. LET'S SHUT THIS FUCKIN’ COUNTRY DOWN!!!
General Strike US supporters are organizing a National Strike. The most powerful strikers are the workers who are employed by the national multi-billionaire companies like Amazon, chain stores and restaurants who have locations in nearly every state across the country, like Amazon, Walmart, McDonald's along with technology and auto, like Tesla, Apple, Meta, Alphabet workers like these will have the most impact. Keep your money in your own communities and support small grocery stores, restaurants and businesses instead.
The most important thing Non-Strikers and everyone can do is stop making the greedy billionaire oligarchs even richer. STOP SHOPPING and BUYING from INTERNATIONAL BILLION DOLLAR COMPANIES! Make yourselves richer and buy GROCERIES ONLY until we get the Limp Dick Traitor and his evil administration from hell, out of the White House and out of our government!!!
Führer tRump hurts children and doesn't give a damn. He clearly was friends with known child human sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein. Many accusations and lawsuits for brutal assaults and rapes have been filed against him but he always gets away with because he has the money and power to follow through with his threats. When the Epstein Files are released there will be more evidence exposing him as mother fuckin pedophile rapist. He's also a racist white supremacist, homegrown treasonous, felonious, imbecile currently the first Limp Dick Traitor of the Un-United States of America.
His entire regime is made up of chosen Musk Rats, Republican MAGAts and ICE henchmen who serve him and hurt people, even seniors, women and children around the world. The hate and madness must end.
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has slashed funding for US Children's Programs including:
~ Education
~ Adoption
~ Foster Care
~ Child Protection Services
~ Shelters for Homeless kids and their families.
Millions of children could get sick or die if they lose their:
~ Medicaid & Health Care Services
~ Medical Science Research
~ Food Safety Inspection
~ Public Health Warnings
~ Weather Monitoring & Alerts
Senator Sanders has a plan to end this madness but he can't do it alone. It's going to take ALL of us to take down the Oligarchs and the Administration from Hell.
Our words - written or spoken - are the most powerful tool we have to support the resistance. For the sake of our families and bank accounts. Watch some of Senator Sanders many YouTube videos to learn more about his plan to take the power away from the billionaire oligarchs and return the power to the people. If you want to be able to have affordable education, health, child and elder care check out BernieSanders.com then share your knowledge and talk about, post or forward these messages to/with everyone you know.
While the Bible doesn't explicitly define a minimum age for marriage, several passages and historical context suggest that marriage, including cases that would be considered child marriage by modern standards, was a practice in ancient Israel.
Here's what the information suggests:
Early Marriages: Marriages in biblical times, particularly for women, occurred at younger ages than in many modern societies.
Rebekah and Isaac: The story of Rebekah and Isaac, for example, is often cited as a potential instance of child marriage as Rebekah is described as a young girl, possibly in her teens, when betrothed to Isaac.
Cultural Norms: Ancient Near Eastern societies, including ancient Israel, had cultural norms around marriage and betrothal that differed significantly from modern practices. Fathers often held the authority to arrange marriages, sometimes for their daughters before or around the age of puberty, according to the University Innovation Hub.
Maturity and Readiness: While betrothal could occur at a young age, the consummation of the marriage often awaited a period of maturity and readiness to establish a household. Ezekiel 16:7-8 hints at girls being of marrying age around the time of puberty.
Parental Consent and Authority: The Mosaic Law emphasizes the role of parents, particularly fathers, in arranging marriages, highlighting the importance of their consent.
Absence of Specific Age Restrictions: The Bible does not provide a specific legal minimum age for marriage.
Modern Interpretation: It's crucial to acknowledge that modern interpretations of biblical texts and ancient practices differ significantly from the social and legal frameworks of the ancient world.
In essence, while the Bible doesn't explicitly promote or condemn child marriage, the cultural and social context it reflects suggests that marriages involving individuals who would be considered children today were part of the reality of ancient times.
Jewish Law specifically states that the average age of a Married Woman during Biblical times was 18 and that Israeli men would get married by the age of 20.
You're lying, as a simple Google search proves. The magical number 18 is a modern invention. In ancient times, girls were considered adults at 12.
Google's answer when I asked "at what age was a girl an adult in ancient times."
___
In ancient times, girls were generally considered adults upon reaching menarche (first menstruation) or marriage, typically around the ages of 12-15. While puberty was a key marker, the timing of marriage and societal expectations also played a significant role in determining adulthood.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Menarche as a Marker:
In many ancient societies, the onset of menstruation signified the transition from childhood to womanhood. This was often seen as the point where a girl became physically capable of bearing children.
Marriage as Adulthood:
Marriage was another crucial factor in defining adulthood for girls. In ancient Greece, for example, girls were often married shortly after menarche, typically to older men. In ancient Rome, the age of consent for marriage was 12, though men were often older.
Societal Expectations:
Beyond biological and legal factors, societal norms also played a role. In some societies, girls were expected to take on domestic roles and responsibilities associated with adulthood upon marriage.
Varying Ages:
While 12-15 is a common range, the exact age could vary based on cultural practices and individual circumstances. Some girls might marry younger, while others might marry later.
God from the Bible is in fact an incarnation of some cultural norms from 2000 years ago . Then codified in a book years later written as close to godly literature as they could muster and refined by another group of fanatical interpreters years later still written in a culture that’s illiterate in a way, still difficult to understand as actual history . It is in fact a fantastic attempt to elevate regular ignorant people into a state of enlightenment via a very unclear fantacy to imply power over those unable to read or understand based on a system of guardian influence and control.not much different from cultures today / maga for example .its all a fantasy of obfuscation distraction control and getting rich / as if that is spirituality providing eternal life . It’s a clever cover for broad ignorance and continuing self evaluated superiority based on virtually any noticeable difference . My world is one of trying to understand knowing it will be eventualy modified or discarded . My joy is making my surroundings pleasant and never requiring more than I need and sharing information to those lacking A perspective of being a very small part of a very large system in a gigantic space of time where I can sleep without worry and listen to the sounds of the wind in the trees
Great post, your last paragraph says it all. Racist, vindictive, child bride loving story tellers write the Bible for future white supremacist, pedo, war mongers to follow.
Except one thing: Child Brides don’t exist anywhere in the Bible. Pedophiles like Joseph Smith added scripture to justify preying on young teen girls in his Book of Mormon Bullshit.
Numbers 31:18 - God tells his chosen people to commit genocide and take their victims' virgin daughters as their brides.
https://biblehub.com/numbers/31-18.htm
Virgin Daughters as in Enemies of War.
That same book of fables includes a story of a married virgin giving birth whose age is estimated by believers to have been as young as 12, which is consistent with acceptable practice at that time and place.
It’s clear you don’t know a damn thing about Jewish Customs and keep exaggerating about a Book you’ve never studied.
This is why I am a recovering Catholic for too many years. I consider myself a Humanist.
Someone needs to get Melania to talk... she is a witness and participant.
IMHO; Those who protect pedophiles are most likely pedos themselves, closeted pedos, &/or at the absolute least enablers.
these people, who are not true christian’s, have squealed for years that they are oppressed and and can’t freely practice their faith! BS of the first order. those who push hate & division should be shunned, no matter their faith
