Answering Muslims: UK Muslims Challenge Law against Marrying Child Brides

David Wood posted the following video regarding protests in Britain to allow grown men marry children! He wrote:

Muhammad had sex with Aisha before she reached puberty, when she was only nine years old. The Qur'an allows men to have sex with prepubescent girls. Not surprisingly, many Muslims are dissatisfied with Western laws that protect young girls.

I know what you are thinking: Surly not any breathing and sane person would think it's okay to marry prepubescent girls! well watch the video David points to:





And then read the video description:

Muslim men cannot even kiss their own wives in public without invoking hostility from the law. That is, if they are even allowed to bring their own wives with them into the country, and the UK government recognises their marriage. The British government would have us believe that a child's consent doesn't matter, and presumes to intervene in private acts within marriages rightfully bestowed on couples by Allah himself.

So why not define "marriage" the way these particular Muslims think it should be defined, while we are at redefining "marriage" anyway? Deep down we all know why we should not.
