God is a pedophile

[Adge]

I, a Christian with ecumenical apocryphal readings variety, believe that pedophilia is not wrong. By Biblical standards, Jesus mother (Mary Immaculate) (PBUH) was only 12, betrothed at 9 and Joseph was in his 60s according to some Catholic encyclopedias and modern interpretations of rabbinic law. If you say pedophilia is wrong, you disrespect not only Joseph or Mary, but GOD himself. Read the Protoevangelium of James.

As for Matthew 18:6, that verse was addressing newcomers to the faith. Read Numbers 31:17-18, Exodus 21:7-11 and Numbers 31:35-40. Also read Leviticus 20:10-21.

10: Don’t lie with another man’s wife.
11: Don’t lie with your father’s wife.
12: Don’t lie with your daughter-in-law.
13: Don’t lie with another man.
14: Don’t take a wife and her mother.
15: Don’t lie with a beast.
16: Don’t let another woman lie with a beast.
17: Don’t lie with your sister.
18: Don’t lie with a woman while she’s menstruating.
19: Don’t uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister or your father’s sister.
20: Don’t lie with your uncle’s wife.
21: Don’t lie with your brother’s wife.

Pedophilia is mentioned NOWHERE.

According to the Catholic Encyclopedia:

“Joseph married a woman called Melcha or Escha by some, Salome by others; they lived forty-nine years together and had six children, two daughters and four sons, the youngest of whom was James (the Less, the “Lord’s brother”).

A year after his wife’s death, as the priests announced through Judea that they wished to find in the tribe of Juda a respectable man to espouse Mary, then twelve to fourteen years of age, Joseph, who was at the time ninety years old.”

That article on Catholic Encyclopedia obtains it’s information from early Christian writings including Apocryphal writings.

Mary was 14 when she had Jesus, 12 when she was married/betrothed by Joseph (then in his 90s).

[Not Forever]

Technically, I don't think that counts as pedophilia anyway, in the sense that the ages mentioned are more or less within puberty.
