Basically God's word doesn't include the topic of pedophilia, an apparent indifference.
If it is not in there we can conclude that the Bible is indifferent, there is no evidence to the contrary.
I think it is more than an inference to say that though, but I'd like some feedback on this.
Here are some snippets from the good book.
Here Eve gives no consent, and as far as I know her consent is never given in any part of the good book. She performs the duties as Adam's helper without consent and that includes the intercourse, child production, and whatever else Adam needed help with.
Genesis 2:22-24
Galatians 3:26
1 Corinthians 7:3
Titus 2:4
It seems sin is a transgression against God that is why it is wrong, but the issue of sexual molestation by a pedophile through marriage is not covered, so it isn't a sin.
And we are making a judgement calls on whether it is right or wrong for pedophiles to marry minors and then "consecrate" their marriage.
As freethinkers we determine it is wrong by our own faculties using empathy and foresight.
I am curious as to why pedophilia and sexual molestation by pedophiles through marriage is not in the Bible and to me it seems the Bible, if it is God's word, is empty when it comes to our actual welfare. As an example killing, murder, is wrong because it is a sin and sin is wrong because it is a transgression against God, it is wrong because it is a sin not because it hurts a person.
Even if God exists and considered pedophiles marrying children a sin it would be because it is a transgression against God not because it hurts children, if you feel that way.
guess I'll leave it at that and see if I get any replies.

Genesis 2:22-24
Here the good book says everybody who has faith is a child.22 Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.23 The man said, “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called ‘woman,’for she was taken out of man.” 24 That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.
Galatians 3:26
Here the good book basically says it is the duty of the married to have intercourse.26 So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith
1 Corinthians 7:3
And Here the good book says make women consent to loving their husbands and children.The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband
Titus 2:4
I know this is an atheist forum, but there might be some faithful that come across this and that is why I posted it as it seems I get banned everywhere there are Christian moderators anyways.And so train the young women to love their husbands and children,
