If I were to become an atheist...

I fail to see how any of this is relevant. The objection i raised was against Islam's 54 year old founder marrying a 6 year old and consummating the marriage at 9. How does creepy ancient rabbis and their man made self-serving laws excuse Muhammad of marrying and sleeping with a child?

I don't doubt that it was more common for girls to be married off at younger ages in biblical times. From what I've researched the cultural tradition was 12-16 and onwards. What I have an issue with is a 54 year old man marrying and sleeping with a little child. So should you be!

Thats your opinion. Here's the thing, the Quran is supposedly the uncreated eternal words of Allah dictated to Muhammad word for word. In it lies two falsification tests to allegedly prove it's divine inspiration. One of the challenges is if it isn't the word of God one could find contradictions and discrepancies. That means that if just one minor error can be found, the whole thing collapses. But when one inspects the Quran we find apocryphal stories about Jesus copied from gnostic forgeries, the trinity being described as Allah, Jesus and Mary, The sun setting in a pool of murky water, and the denial of Jesus' crucifixion, described by even liberal scholars as one of the most certain historical events in the life of Christ. So the Quran can be dismissed on this basis alone as it shoots itself in the foot.


The most authentic traditions, accepted by the overwhelming majority of Sunni Muslims and scholars teaches that Aisha was 6 during the marriage and 9 at the consummation. 

Just take your shahada and be done with it.
