>What does the bible claim to be pedophilia.
Back then pedophilia wasn't a thing.
Sure you probably had lolicons in Ancient Greece and where not but whatever you could do to a child fell under the regular crime e.g. rape of a virgin, fornication etc.
Children where ought to be fit for marriage after their bar/bat mitzwa in Judea.
Mary conceived Christ around 14 years old, and was legally married to Joseph who was probably already in his thirties.
The whole fact stays that breaking the law of the land is a sin on its own.
Sure you could find a 15 year old, bring her to a rogue Catholic Church, get legally married in the eyes of God (still need her parents permission for that though) and get an emancipation started (also with the permission of her parents).
But now here comes the part of discussion: the state has nothing to do with actual marriage.
Marriage for the state is defined by the civil code, which is (although based on the Corpus Iuris Civilis by Justinian) purely Napoleonic, a.k.a. purely secular.
It was a means to regulate civil life, but eventually infringed on the socio-religious implications of marriage.
An actual marriage, that is between a man and a woman in front of the altar, is not recognized by the state.
While on the other hand two men going to the mayors desk and getting his a-ok is completely legal.
In all honesty, marrying an underage girl for the Church is not even breaking the law as far as my legal interpretation goes.
The reason for this is that though a legal marriage for the state is one you do according to civil code in front of a civil servant, one done for the Church (or for any other religion for that matter…except for child-marriages in islam of course, they get leeway) is just simply not recognized as valid.
Therefore, one could marry an underage girl for the Church, then just way another x years until she is legal for the state and marry there for the legal benefits.
So long as both she and her parents are fine with this no legal problems can occur.
