Pedophile, Culture, and Religion

I don't think it's sane to marry a young lady or man off to an early person. The fact that some religion or culture see nothing wrong in such practices make it more perplexing.

A man of 83 years in Nigeria, is getting married to a young girl of 16 years of age.

What should we say is the purpose of such union?

Why do parents of such ladies allow it? Poverty, or believe?

On no account should this be encouraged. This is an abuse of all forms.

What do you think?
