​@@miahall2363 Yes, it is. GIRLS that young still haven't fully developed enough to have children. Most girls that are pregnant at that age need to give birth via a c-section simply because their birth canals are not wide enough yet to deliver a child. It was (and probably still is) a problem in some African nations, where a man would take a child bride of 11 or 12 years old. Some died in child birth, others ended up with severe physical problems afterwards. If you look at most faiths in history, it was onset of a girl's period, plus two years. That gives the body more time to finish developing, as well as for the girl to finish maturing. Also, giving birth has historically been one of the most dangerous things a woman does. In previous centuries, it was the main cause of death of a woman. So, no, it IS dangerous for a 12 year old GIRL to get pregnant, and to give birth. At ANY point in history.

Omari Thompson Ok i'll try answer those 4... 1. Usually women like older men and men like younger women, this has been the case forever and it will never change, it's natural. There's no point listing out the reasons why the reply would be too long, but i'm sure you know that is true in life. 2. Yes. 16 is a normal age in most of the world, I don't think any reasonable person thinks a 16 year old is a child, she makes all kinds of life changing decisions at that age. 3. Yeah the male would be expected to die a lot sooner than her, in this case she can re-marry anyway, and it's expected at his age he would have financial provision for her. 4. In traditional marriages the woman doesn't need to be rich or wise (intelligent yes, but wise/ experienced, no). If she loves the man, he is older and more set in his ways and has gone through life and learned (hopefully), so it is good for her to truly become "his" wife and she will benefit greatly from that (as opposed to an ignorant young man). It's appropriate a woman picks a man based on character so he will be a good head of the house. As for her, she should be intelligent and compliant as his other half. You see, the world tries to fool people into thinking a marriage is some kind of contest, but these usually fail (as evidenced with divorce stats these days). When a woman puts her trust in a "good" man, she is practically forcing him to love her and take care of her. This is a womans true power, as opposed to stamping her foot and futilely trying to force the issue. The guy should be wise (because of his age) so he should be trustworthy to make decisions and her submission basically forces him to make her welfare primary.

bay wills I wouldn't call evolution-school "education", more like indoctrination. Your reasoning is faulty also... if she goes to college in her 20's is she still not ready? What if she leaves high school early to get a job? What if they started the school curriculum at an earlier age so she DID finish the last year at 16? Christians are commanded by God to obey the laws of the country they reside in, so if underage (according to government) sex happens that is a direct violation of what Jesus Christ himself said. However 18 is very old compared to the rest of the world. But if a country said 5 years old was a sex-acceptable age, Christians would ignore that until the woman was started puberty. This is Nature and Bible. But no True Christian would break ANY land-laws because we are commanded to maintain peace, and keeping laws keeps us at peace with the government. Peace is a FAR more important command for us than sex.

Pastors like this are not Christian pastors. The Bible also speaks about false prophets and this is who they are. The Bible tells you that a pastor must be blameless and able to teach and lead others . This more proves why people need to repent of their sins and call upon Jesus to save them. It’s religion VS salvation. Since more have a religion in their sins. But they aren’t saved from their sins.

It doesn't matter what the oil is,long as it has been prayed over it ,that's what allows it to be anointed

Menses is NOT the measure of a ‘woman’. Biological maturity and emotional development are continuing in females until age 21 or so, depending upon the individual. Men don’t reach this stage until 25....again, depending upon the individual....these are the average. To say a child of twelve is able to be a mother.... It is horrific and stressful on both her and the child she is carrying, developmentally! Many time more likely that the baby will have health issues and raises the mortality rate of the mother.

i love how you can see leia in the background during that one scene and she just seems unsettled

How bizarre, amazing that cults can exist this day and age.

They said that a hundred years ago too.

I'm fed up of being unimportant. I want to start my own cult. Look at all the cool stuff you can do.

Wow, his son is so beautiful and looks like Owen Wilson crossed with Robert Redford in spite of his father's toad-like appearance and cold nature, he is warm as happiness still shines through him even though he was abused by the person he trusted the most as Godly. :,(

and a 17 year old married to a 60 year man? absolutely appaling!

Just because a girl at 12 or 13 has a period doesn't mean she is a woman. The damage a baby does to a body that young is huge!

Hearing about Gloriavale puts me in two states of mind. On one hand, a lot of what they say resonates with me. I love God and believe in Him and try to live a life that honours Him in everything I do, so when they say that they are a "body of Christ" and are "living for God and not the world", I totally agree with that. I also feel that it's okay for the kids to have responsibility, and to learn the value of hard work. Too many kids these days (I am 18 years old by the way) grow up not knowing how to work so it's great to see them upholding that strong work ethic. However, where it goes wrong for me is the fact that this man, Neville Cooper, is building this society - this religion, even - that seems to be missing what is to me, one of the fundamentals of my life as a follower of Christ; sharing God's message of His love and life to the people around you! i believe one of the main reasons we are on this earth is to bring more people into God's family and show them that we all can have eternal life through God's love and sacrifice for us. How can you spread the light in a place where there is no darkness??

+JJfriend123 Good comment. Shows you are thinking and have a godly mindset. You are correct hat sharing God's message to outsiders is missing, also the cult leader dominating and controlling others instead of the Holy Spirit, his interpretation of the Bible rules rather than people reading and following themself.

Married my husband right away, had all the children we could (religious & career mom here). Love the idea of marrying young, making a marriage work, worshiping together, shutting out sex/drugs/chaos of a modern western lifestyle

Gloryvale was one of the most fascinating and disturbing mini-series that I have ever seen

so sad... makes my heart hurt

If the entire world lived like this, which presumably they would find a laudable aim, it would spell the end of philosophy, science and technology - the world would not be able to feed itself.. These pitiful and deluded kids are prisoners of the brainwashing they have been subjected to since the day they were born. I seriously and sincerely propose a law freeing all children from the religions of their parents until they are 18 and able to decide..

What On Earth stands for woe btw

The world IS full of evil and sin. But the Bible talks about Christians being IN the World but not OF the world. Meaning we are to be a light in the world. Shining God's beautiful love and goodness in the world, pointing to Jesus Christ as our only hope. No MAN is infallible or to followed exclusively. The sad thing is that when 1 person controls every aspects of a community, their whims and weaknesses aren't subject to the Holy Spirit. So they just become like Satan "do what thou wilt". Modest dress and not embracing the bad things in the world etc has to be a conviction. Not forced.

This is Christianity at its heart, All else is sparks off of that.

People are taking Christianity to a whole new level.

What will happen to the cult after Neville Cooper dies? Will it just fall away? These cults' existence seems to depend on their 'charismatic' leader, so what happens after the leader dies?

OK it's called "the family bed"... back when early homes consisted of one or two rooms... inevitably the kids might glimpse parents having intercourse. Though when they mentioned that he encouraged watching... I admit that man has serious problems. Usually convicted sex offenders have their movements limited... such as no contact with children or not being allowed to live near schools. I'm surprised that this man isn't dealing with restrictions.
