Quite simple. The mindset of cretins such as Robertson is to deprive women of having control over their own lives. Depriving a person of education and life experience is easier to accomplish with young teens as compared to women.
Oh, indeed. Some men seem to equate a woman having personal autonomy in her life with rabid feminism.

Um, nope. You're not one of these people who equate the acceptance of homosexuality with a ridiculous slippery slope fallacy where the likes of rape and paedophilia are going to be accepted in society are you?
Those who support sodomy obviously have not the slightest interest in what God thinks of sodomy.

No, "risible" is the actual descriptor or "pathetic", there's quite a few appropriate adjectives to choose from in similar vein.

So, you agree with Robertson that it's better to get teenage girls as young as 15 because if they get to 20 they'll only be interested in money and the like? How do you even define feminism anyway and why would girls suddenly 'morph into rabid and selfish feminists' by the age of twenty? Has it not occurred to you that Robertson's sentiments are deeply patronising and insulting towards women and that your endorsement of them are just as abysmal?
Yep.
Not a sudden morphing, but hard to reverse after 20.
Nope, because they are only so to you because you have a humanistic mindset that won’t allow God’s standards to dictate anything to you.

Oh, it's pretty easy to spot lunacy, it practically advertises itself on the far right in America nowadays. Sure, homosexuality used to be regarded as a psychological disorder 50 and more years ago and then sanity prevailed and it was recognized as normal, no matter how much that might irk the more zealous. So? FTR, I don't think such things are as 'fluid' as you posit either.
Deranged leftists who think men can give birth to children expose their lunacy by calling Christians lunatics.

Gaetz's associates are smart enough to get away from him before he crashes and burns. Can't say I blame them.
The left idolizes atheists, communists, radicals, racists, and the like while demonizing conservatives, Christians, and republicans for standing against leftist liberal corruption and perversion.

Any society that protects and promotes immorality is a society in trouble with God.

The same as we do with any accusation a man makes, at least for the sane among us. If an accusation has sufficient evidence to corroborate it and it holds up to scrutiny then fine and if it doesn't then do the math. Heck, hardly a gender issue.
Investigators looked into Blasie Ford's claims and found little or no credible evidence to support her allegations. Democrats have refused to look into Tara Reade's claims for political reasons, proving democrats do not oppose sin but oppose those who stand in the way of their sin.

Where exactly, at least in the western hemisphere? Child protection laws have stringently tightened with a zero tolerance towards molestation in the UK as with rape or any sexual assault so if there's anywhere in the US where it's tolerated then that's abominable. Then again, I recall the dulcet tones of Phil "Duck Dynasty" Robertson advocating his followers to 'get girls when they're fifteen/sixteen'


"Look, you wait 'til they get to be 20 years old, the only picking that's going to take place is your pocket," he said. "You got to marry these girls when they are about 15 or 16. They'll pick your ducks. You need to check with mom and dad about that, of course."

Lovely, eh?
Marrying young is not a sin. Sexual perversion is a sin.

Robertson's statement is a problem because it's asinine and pathetic. Do you agree with him that men should get girls as young as 15 so as they do their bidding rather than 20 when they're not so easily manipulated or pliable as is his obvious implication and liable to pick their wallets?

There have always been problems with child abuse, domestic abuse and all sorts of else Derf. That laws have tightened in regards to such doesn't mean there wasn't a problem to begin with. It actually means it's been better solved.
Teenage girls have married for centuries and have proven that marrying young does not prove to always be a bad idea.

I deal with “zero tolerance” efforts at work. They are often a political ploy to make someone look good, while the errors are often hidden to meet the new policy on the surface, if not in actuality.

On Robertson, do you have any idea who he was talking to? It didn’t seem to be targeted toward older men, but younger. And he was encouraging them to seek out women who were not too much younger than themselves, if any, and to ask permission from the parents of the ladies. This encourages the young men to grow up, rather than be dependent on their own parents, to start thinking about providing for their future bride and future family, and to marry young ladies when they are still feminine, before they are corrupted by feministic and selfish ideals. He encouraged them to find brides that love and live the Bible and want to follow it in their home-making—as well as to check out their home-making skills. I don’t see anything wrong with any of that.
My grandfather determined to marry my grandmother after he first met her while she was still a young teenager. They married later and lived long fruitful monogamous lives. Choosing a life partner at an early age is not a sin.

Okay, you'll have to go into some more detail in regards to the former and in specific detail really.

As regards Robertson, he was talking to a crowd, it's not difficult to find and so what if it was directed at 'younger men'? That make it all okay? Get over yourself with your' feminist' diatribe dude. This guy advocates getting girls as young as 15 because in his opinion they're more likely to do someone's bidding and it has zero to do with love or anything associated. What he said was pathetic. What, do fifteen year old girls suddenly morph into rabid, selfish feminists when they hit 20 or something?
Enemies of God see no problem with teen homosexuals living together but they think a man who sets his attention on a young girl for marriage is somehow wicked. Enemies of God have perverted judgments and ideas.

No, because it was absolutely degrading and pathetic to boot. How is it 'sage advice' to encourage young men to get girls as young as 15 because if they wait until they're 19 or so they're suddenly going to *morph* into rabid and selfish feminists and the like? What kind of 'sage advice' is that?
Going homosexual or transexual at an early age is wrong, evil, and pathetic. Setting one's eyes on a young girl for marriage is not wrong. The girl does not have to return the attention or affection and nobody should make two people marry who do not love each other and are not committed to honor God in their marriage.

A deranged parent forcing a grade school kid to change his sex is perverted. Encouraging young people to marry young under the right conditions is not perverted.

Robertson's reasoning does not seem to be without flaws. Perhaps he needed to word his statements differently.
