Well, it is not even internally consistent. That should give you some idea as to the quality of your source (which you have not revealed, for some reason). Quote: then married me when I was nine years old.” Interpretation: although the actual marriage was not consummated until she was nine. They say two different things. Tom [edit] Sorry, I just discovered this is off-topic. There are several threads on SI for discussing Islam.

Professors Karen E. Gerdes and Martha N. Beck, then of Brigham Young University -- an LDS institution -- were prohibited from publishing their results, but the study appeared anyway in the Spring 1996 issue of Affilia, Journal of Women and Social Work. According to a story appearing in yesterday's edition of the Houston Chronicle, church leaders criticized the study as flawed. Gerdes and Beck found that most of the women survivors "said they had bad experiences when they turned to Mormon clergymen for comfort and counsel," noted Chronicle reporter Paul McKay. "For a church that in recent years has faced numerous lawsuits accusing it of harboring, or at least failing to stop, pedophiles in its midst, Gerdes said she believed she and her colleagues were providing some helpful insights," added the paper. The study was funded by a grant from the Eccles Foundation, described as "a Mormon entity," and was administered by Brigham Young University's Women's Research Institute.
