So we know from the study of childhood development that there is no such thing as a nine-year-old woman.

And we know, I mean, it's ridiculous to claim that in 1,400 years, human beings have evolved differently.

The most ridiculous argument I've ever heard from a Muslim apologist is, oh, it's because of the heat.

People develop faster in the heat.

Nonsense.

Even if it makes a small little bit of difference, it's not going to be the kind of difference that will justify sleeping with a nine-year-old.

So I felt sorry for him, really, that he was so brainwashed that you could tell by him dancing around the topic that he knew that it was wrong.

And didn't he say in the interview, it doesn't apply today?

Is that something he said or am I just making that up?

But the point is, Muhammad is the best example according to Islam.

So that means he's the best example today in everything that he did.

If Muhammad's the perfect example, isn't he the perfect example today for you now in how to marry a child?

Well, I mean, it's a great question because under most of the Mad Habs, many of the Mad Habs, the decision-making process always is with the father.

So when Ayesha was six...

Muhammad married her.

Now, no six-year-old has frontal lobe development, which is one of the things that makes you an adult, is you get that frontal lobe development that allows you to make farsighted decisions, i.e.

not irrational, emotional decisions.

That's why little kids run into the middle of roads, because they can't think of the consequences.

So no six-year-old is able, and I was speaking, I was evangelizing a Muslim just yesterday.

He's got two wives.
