Just because we don't know the true extent of the problem of moslem child marriages in Australia, does not mean that the problem of child marriages within the moslem community [within Australia], is not prevalent.
Fantastic observation Y.
Similarly, just because we don't know for sure that there isn't a giant purple monkey jumping around the moon - doesn't mean he isn't there.
And like your example, it is far wiser to operate on the assumption that there absolutely *IS* a giant purple monkey jumping around the moon, wouldn't you agree Y? Except that 'the giant purple monkey jumping around the moon', isn't destroying the lives of abused children [on the moon], wouldn't you agree gandalf?
gandalf,
Why do you appear to want to deflect any criticism of ISLAM or any criticism of moslem communities, on this issue of underage marriages within moslem communities in Australia ? - WHEN IT CAN BE DEMONSTRATED that underage marriages within moslem communities in Australia
IS OCCURRING !
This issue of underage marriages within moslem communities,
IS NOT 'AN IMAGINARY GIANT PURPLE MONKEY JUMPING AROUND THE MOON'.
Underage marriages within moslem communities, worldwide, is a real problem which has the potential to destroy the lives of those girls who are 'touched' by it.
gandalf,
Are you going to deny that a significant problem with underage marriages within moslem communities
in the UK exists ?
And that this problem with underage marriages within moslem communities
in the UK has been described as an epidemic ?
Google;
epidemic of Muslim child marriages, UKgandalf,
Why would you insist on criticising anyone who would like Australians to examine this issue [of perhaps determining the extent of underage marriages within moslem communities], here in Australia ?
gandalf,

If it is not prevalent in the moslem community, in Australia - prove it. [e.g. let the moslem community compile a PUBLIC register of marriages, and the ages of those people in those unions!]
And lets have the Mufti of Australia, come out and publicly declare, that ISLAM condemns such [underage] unions.
And if the Mufti of Australia WILL NOT come out and openly say that ISLAM condemns such unions - why could that be ?
