    So you disagree with Aristotle.

    lol, the naivety of women.
    Do you mean this guy?

    “As to the exposure of children, let there be a law that no deformed child shall live. However, let no child be exposed because of excess population, but when couples have too many children, let abortions be procured before sense and life have begun.”
    Sorry, folks, I am note deferring to Aristotle for any marriage/family considerations.

    Only someone pig ignorant of their faith or just outright guilty of the sin of pride would say something so utterly stupid as what you just said.

    Ah yes. When you have no arguments left break out the "you're not being charitable" line.

    Maybe the lack of charity started with the stupid remark? A lack of charity against the Truth?

    Maybe you should practice a little humility?

    Lol. Rather than focus on the the insult to one of the greatest philsophers of all time by some WOMAN, she focuses on how "uncharitable" the just indignation in reaction to that is.

    • You guys. Mr. McAristotle is clearly a troll here to stir up trouble. Stop feeding him and he’ll go away. :fryingpan:

    • "Worldsaway and Everlast honestly crack me up with how little civility they manage to show around here.
    As for Aristotle, he really has no bearing on a sacramental marriage or the raising of children. Do we seriously care about his opinions on marital ages from thousands of years ago, in a completely different world? So much has changed since then. We can take pieces of his thinking when they’re useful, sure—but he was still just a man, and a flawed one like the rest of us.
    At this point, the whole topic has run its course. I’m not sure what the original poster expected to get out of it. From what I can see, nobody’s changed their mind, and the conversation has pretty much dissolved into everyone taking shots at each other."

    This is my last post on the this topic- feel free to answer or not- it's a moot point.

    Nowhere in human history do we see the normalization of the opposition to age gaps outside of the late 20th century and feminism.

    Aristotle is just chosen as being representative of the wisdom of all ages. 

    St. Thomas Aquinas uses him as the framework for his entire summa.

    So to run him down like that shows how totally ruined your mind is by the sins of the modern age.

    Please get back in the kitchen and off the internet. 

    Your husband and family need you doing more productive things than this.

    • I would genuinely like to hear what actual seasoned fathers on CathInfo have to say about it. Fathers with girls in the 12-18 year age range, but really any father with girls, even girls that have already left the coop. I’ve heard enough from unmarried or newly married men on the subject. I hesitate to make yet another thread on it but it sure would be nice if it wasn’t anonymous. The anonymous section just kills it. 

    Married men with daughters, would you entertain a man in his 30’s asking to court your 14 year old daughter? What about 16? 

    It is a pertinent conversation, if only it could be approached without accusations and insults.
