The ulema have agreed that it is permissible for fathers to marry off their small daughters, even if they are in the cradle,” the edict declared. “But it is not permissible for their husbands to have sex with them unless they are capable of being placed beneath and bearing the weight of the men. And their capability in this regard varies based on their nature and capacity. Aisha was six when she married the prophet, but he had sex with her when she was nine, that is, when she was deemed capable.” Fawzan said there is nothing in Islamic, or Shariah law, that sets a minimum age limit on marrying girls, citing Quran 65:4.
Lots of people are interested in "hosting" children.
Reports of wealthy men from gulf countries roaming refugee camps in Jordan have become more common. Desperate to support themselves and their families, Syrian families have been known to sell their young daughters using temporary marriages, known as sigheh, segheh, or mu’ta. Wealthy individuals from Saudi Arabia, the U.A.E. and Kuwait travel to Egypt to purchase women and girls for temporary marriages, facilitated by parents and guardians. Girls as young as 10 have been sold in this manner and later found in the streets of the men’s home countries with no way to return to their families and no one willing to take them in — except for traffickers.
Meanwhile Islamic countries have no interest in taking in refugees of adults or families aka children accompanied by adults.
Either the Muslim community has read the New Testament and understood it and plans to put it into practice, or Islam is a genuinely caring and nurturing faith after all, in spite of what some would have us believe. Where are the Christians...?
CLEVELAND – Federal authorities have arrested a man who allegedly planned a terrorist-style attack in downtown Cleveland on July 4.
The FBI said Demetrius Nathaniel Pitts -- aka Abdur Raheem Rafeeq -- was taken into custody Sunday around 10 a.m. on accusations of attempting to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization.
According to the lefty liberals and ethnocentrics you're not a Christian unless you choose to commit suicide for others up to and including law breakers. WTH? Where is that verse in the Bible?

And you'll be posting specific examples?
Or should we just take it to be a collection of pixels and nothing more?

Now I'm curious. Where does the Bible set such a limit?

And some church hierarchies protect those who do "host" children.
"A Catholic cardinal published an open letter over the weekend accusing Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari of culpable inaction to protect Christians from Muslim violence and demanding that he step down from office."

The Catholic church won't even protect children from Catholic priests. Something that is within its' power to do. It has no moral standing to criticize others.
Just illegal alien children or do you have room for the homeless children of US citizens and those separated from their families?
It's against the law to steal children from their parents if the parents are citizens. You can't just go and take someone's children even if they are homeless. Social services/CPS/DCF can, but at that point, the kids are generally put into foster homes or, in the case of teens, sometimes group homes, which I believe is a substandard solution. In any case, they're not caged in old Walmarts.
