| Freedom of religion doesnt extend to hurting others or depriving others of their rights. In this case the children are allegedly being forced into "marriage" with old guys and statutory rape.
If those mothers were letting children be raped then that pretty clearly falls under the definition of unfit and negligent parent.
Is it okay to be a pedophile or knowingly allow it to happen to your kids if it is your religion? It just seems strange that if this was just some random guy having sex with a twelve year old I doubt there would be this level of hand wringing for the poor mothers that let it happen. |
