Glad I am a atheist. We are willing to toss our fellow atheist under the bus.
This Pauper Pope, under siege from the Religious Wrong, begs to differ with your ‘The RCC Inc.’ Moronic Nonsense.
And those states are all creepy Red states of incest.

This is sickening. As I said on another thread, I don't understand anyone who supports the catholic church since this has been exposed.
If you are unable to tell the difference between "doctrine" and "corporate policy" then I'm much afraid that I cannot assist you further.
On the other hand, I'd be absolutely delighted if you could refer me to the reasons why "The RCC Inc." has been spending so much time and money (and creating totally unwarranted hardships for the victims) covering up for Priests who violate "the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church".
Just so that you aren't further confused, I don't have any more issues with the doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church (as long as those doctrines only apply to devotees of the Roman Catholic Church) than I do with the doctrines of Islam (as long as those doctrines only apply to devotees of Islam) or even than I do with the doctrines of "The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster" (as long as those doctrines only apply to devotees of "The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster").
I have never been a fan of the catholic church or their theology.
This is and has always been a massive problem for the church itself.
these guys should be charged this is not an internal church matter.
as they always seem to write it off as.
The Nazis, KKKs, and Fundamentalists of this GOP White Nationalist Party have hated, persecuted and murdered Roman Catholics, as well as Jews, Minorities, and Native Americans, since the beginning of this Bastardized Nation.
I make a real effort to keep "the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church" and "The RCC Inc." separated in my mind.
There is nothing whatsoever in "the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church" which supports this type of behaviour (and MUCH that condemns it).
However, as a revenue producing organization, "The RCC Inc." has absolutely nothing against doing whatever is necessary to maintain (and increase) its positive cash flow, so one would expect exactly this type of behaviour from "The RCC Inc.".
Why would anyone do this?This is why liberals need to present a bill that lowers the age of consent to age 6

Which would be older than nine years old. But who's counting? Certainly not you.
The age of marriage countries like that varies from 9 to 11. With Iran being the lowest and some areas in Sudan being 10-11, whereas 10 is the average and yes. Consummation is expected and to be observed by relative (clergy) in most situations.

Whah? How are liberals involved in all this? Were all the abusers liberal priests?
And yet we have the same kind of laws in the good ol' US of A that allows for at the very least, the very same thing, as these other 'less civilized' Islamic countries allow that you're citing. Gee, wonder where it is you're coming from.
Tell me of a state in the US that has a law, stating that an adult male can marry a 9-11 year old and even be allowed to consummate the marriage?
Because as of now, not even 20 states have no set limit for the age of marriage, yet they damn well have laws against sex with a minor.
Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, and Texas all do.
But not if you are married to the minor because then the minor is "emancipated" and able to give legal consent.
It's still ruled as an "emancipated minor" they are able to live alone and make decisions so long as they don't impact upon help law.
But still, it's fine. You managed to dig up something that despite how obscure it is, might actually have a chance of happening. Especially given probability and all the systems that it exhibits.
I'll still wait on the verdict if consummation is still legal, if you're able to find it.
"Sex with a minor" is deemed to be a "statutory offence" because a "minor" is deemed unable to consent. Once "emancipated" that person (regardless of age) is deemed able to give a valid consent. "She consented." isn't a defence against a charge of "statutory rape" involving a non-emancipated "minor". "She consented." IS a defence against a charge of "statutory rape" involving an emancipated "minor".
PS - "You managed to dig up something that despite how obscure it is" is a pretty weak rebuttal to actual proof that your statement was completely wrong (to say nothing whatsoever about being incredibly culturally biased and uninformed as to the actual laws of the United States of America).
