The age of consent/marriage: Why sex with children should never be normalized

Many parents are concerned about the issue of the age of consent, and rightfully so. I am anti-parent to the core, but I support the God-given duty of parents to protect their children, and I judge parents accordingly. If you are a parent, and you promote your child, you are just as guilty as the sex offender you hand them to, regardless of ability or disability in the offender. The age of consent/marriage is too low here in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

There is an age of consent in the Bible, and it is found in two places. See 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 KJV:

Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which is God's. 

See also Romans 13:1-2 KJV:

Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.

The Early Christians cooperated with the Roman authorities, and set the age of consent/marriage for the church at age 13. Under Jewish law, the age of consent/marriage for females was 12, but it was raised to 13 to honor Roman law. The age of consent was line with the age of majority in both cases. The Greek root word translated "fornication" is πορνεία (Latin: porneia) lifts up all of the sex crime laws of Ancient Israel, including the moral statutes against any sex with a child, or sex involving a child. Even sex between children was considered fornication.

It is a myth that the age of consent/marriage in biblical times was low. Based on neighboring cultures, Ancient Jewish culture really took a stand against sex with children. Marriages were only permitted under customary law between same age peers, meaning a man could only marry a woman his age or older. Uncle/niece marriages were rare in the Old Testament, and non-existent in the Early Church. Cousin marriage was allowed in both the Old and New Testament. It wasn't like an older man could have a bride betrothed to him easily. The only time that actually happened was when the father was overwhelmed with sexual entitlement towards his virgin daughter, and knew he had to get himself out of the picture. 

There is a threat to our children today, and it isn't pedophiles as a whole population. The left itself, on every story except the children's rights story, comes from an elite group of biblical scholars called "exist", who seeks to spread false information about the Bible in order to erase the influence of the Bible and its context, erase God from society. When there is no God to dictate morality, you can do whatever you want, including have sex with children, right? That's the agenda of "exist". One half studies the Bible in order to disprove it, and the other half studies child sexuality. What they ultimately want is for society to go back to the days of peacekeeping, and they will note their actual agenda subtly when they point out that the human race wasn't religious for a certain period of time in the past. During that time, we communicated through rape and sexual assault, and parents kept down their children sexually. We really were born in original sin as a human race. We are glorified apes. We are a peacekeeping species. We must never go back to peacekeeping.

Sex with children will never be acceptable, even if it was for much of human history. The depraved and decadent, defiled sexual offenders of children will not inherit the Kingdom of God! Let them descend into torrents of Hell-fire! Repent!
