this is what christianity teaches marry children and abuse them
I think, in US, underage marriage and especially underage pregnancy is mainly an underclass issue and related to quite complex socio-economic conditions of ghettos. Why to turn it into a religious or Christianity issue.
The issue of underage marriage in some niche rural communities is small. Child trafficking for the sake of abuse/marriage/prostitution is a different topic altogether.

what is child??? dont confuse it...any person that attain puberty (na matter what age) is not a child....they can marry any one as they agree...thats it...no one has right to away their (one who had acquired puberty) rights of marriage of the person of their wish/choice, if they want to, just bcz they are not 18 yrs of age...this is non sense...what kind of people are they...they have no problem with adultry, gay marriages but want to restrict a genuine right of a young person to get married just bcz some other person think that they are child...
