First, I would like to apologize to the list for posting this despite my promise not to do so. This is just too important to leave unresolved.
On further googling the terms "bestiality" and "islam", I found this page which has NOTHING to do with bestiality, but does document islam's practice with regards to prepubescent little girls. Read it and decide for yourself, whether I or Lomax is lying. The references are well documented medical and muslims sources, so Lomax can not say they are biased. A couple of points to highlight. 1. A'isha's age at the time of consummation is not in dispute among muslim scholars. It is well documented and well accepted. She was 9 years old. 2. There is evidence A'isha was prepubescent when muhammed had intercourse with her. 3. This practice remains a significant practice in muslim countries to this day. Read about the muslim cleric in Indonesia. 4. A little girl's body is in fact not ready for sexual intercourse and pregnancy at the age of 9. Regular ovulation does not start until a significant amount of time after menses (regularly up to 2 years from the first menses.) Mammary gland start of development does not start until the first menses. Check out the medical references. This is what I said with my pig breeding posts that many found to be too offensive. Now, decide for yourself which of us both is lying. http://www.answering-islam.de/Silas/childbrides.htm#s4 Please read the link before you call for my banning and decide for yourself if this practice is acceptable to you. Decide if you will allow this practice to your 9 year old daughter. Decide which of us both is lying. I am not claiming the site is unbiased, I am claiming that the references in the site is unbiased. Muslim sources should be acceptable to muslims. Instead of saying Lomax has "excellent" research skills, why not just research the links and references of this site. Decide for yourself which of us both is lying. Research for yourself before you are "enthralled" by Lomax's lengthy essays and assume that it is a "well-researched" response. Jojo PS. Note that I have not insulted Lomax in this posts at all. But if he finds the truth offensive, there is nothing I can do about that.
