Islam on Marriage and Sex: Troubling Stuff

Doesn't the Bible say to kill the enemies of God?
God told that to the ancient Israelites when deciding to wipe out the other tribes after providing those sinful peoples centuries of grace, but He never said that we as Christians should do that. The Disciples had swords, but they didn't become like the Jewish Zealots, who murdered people in a guerrilla war to fight against what they saw as disbelief. The Disciples defended their lives as God told them to, to carry their swords for defense of their possessions and their lives, not to murder anyone who disbelieves. Pacifism isn't the answer, but neither is mass slaying. The call for violence comes when we are directly threatened and must use it to defend our very lives.
 
Yeah, but they're babies of the enemies of God.
Why don't we just kill ourselves, then? We're sinful people too, and a lot of those today who are converted Christians came from disbelieving families, but no, I guess they all should have just died too, then, huh? No, obviously, they shouldn't have! These children have the right to grow up and to then accept Christ's gift and to comprehend the blessings He provides on Earth. To give them a bleak and terrible, short moment of mortal living by sacrificing them for the sake of proving a meager judicial point of "don't break our law" is in itself evil murder, the same as what the enemies of God have done and still do all the time!

God's wrath doesn't need to be carried out by us physically anymore because we are not any longer being commanded by Him to kill groups of unbelievers. The reason we follow the Ten Commandments is because all of them but one are still affirmed as the guidance of God in the New Testament. The only one that isn't still affirmed is keeping the Sabbath as the Israelites did, because we aren't under their covenant, so we don't keep it as they kept it. Meanwhile, we are now commanded in the Epistle to the Romans to
>never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord."
So, no, I don't think we need to kill disbelievers. Yes, we have a New Covenant, and so it has new stuff, and that new stuff isn't the same as the stuff that was in the Old Covenant.
 
There is no age of consent. Instead, you have the half-your-age-plus-7-years age gap rule. This applies for all ages; if the resulting age is older than you, then you cannot have sex. If you are found to engage in sexual activity when you or the other party is too young/old, both parties and the resulting offspring will be executed. Every decade, we will increase the +7 years by one year, so that way, humans will start to reproduce later in life, making us live longer.
Where in the Bible or in the works of the Saints or the Church o algo lay this out
 
I don't hear about the Pope, or eastern Patriarchs, or any fringe sect advocating for an overthrow of secular society
Wrong. Eastern Orthodoxy opposes secularism. We have a patriarch in Georgia who pushes for monarchy. And indeed absolute monarchy is the proper Orthodox Christian stance.
 
There are a lot of devout mudslimes that marry to children here. Child marriage is a very disliked and hated by the general public but the mudslimes don't give a fuck cuz they like havin fun. A very few number of parents who are in extreme poverty sell their kids to wealthy mudslimes because they're poor and want to get rid of a child and make some money while they're at it.
 
Yeah. I always hate hearing these Muslims in western countries talking about Islam. They are already westernized cucks in terms of mindset and they project the assumptions that comes with it onto Islam. They don't know the religion like we do.
>westernized cucks in terms of mindset and they project the assumptions that come with it onto Islam
You've just assumed and projected by saying that I do so, geg. You know nothing about me or my understanding of Islam outside of this single topic, yet you act arrogantly as if you did know. You're one to talk about being a westernized cuck, your country has sucked European cock for the past hundred years and your currency is similar in value to the toilet paper I wipe my ass with.

The age gap rule seems quite arbitrary. And what about something like a 30 year old and a 60 year old, who are both steadfast in faith, who marry? I find it ridiculous that they deserve to be executed, and cruel that their offspring are to be executed.
