lets review what Dale had said in another thread:
Mary the mother of Jesus was a teenager when she got married. She may have been as young as 14. In a modern culture we object to marrying you, but I doubt God who is archaic would care? Do you have a Bible verse that says God objects to marrying young? Prove from your Bible polygamists who took wives only married adult women. Deut. 17 allows a king to have some wives, some gold, and some horses. Deut. 21 has rules governing plural marriage. The law says nothing about not marrying a plural wife in her teens. Prove to me no respected Old Testament polygamist ever took a teen bride. You are saying its not Gods will to marry teens, but I would like you to show me where you found Gods will on the matter in your Bible.
I do not know whether to laugh or get angry. Still waiting for his response.
And crawling on the planet's face Some insects called the human race Lost in time And lost in space...and meaning

I missed that post. Waiting for a response as well. ;)
I will say this of something I learned a while back. In Isaiah you hear that a virgin shall concieve a child but in the hebrew it's not a virgin - that's the greek - in hebrew it's a young woman will concieve a child - still, she could be eighteen.
