Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.

Wait WHAT?? Bruh what is going on with Christianity?
Muhammed had a 9yo wife (but it's "totally cool" because he didn't fuck her until she was 11, I'm assured...), it's not just Christianity.
Also iirc people had babies about once a year starting around 14 until they died at 30 of any number of causes, and that's if they made it past infancy since the infant mortality rate was so high, which was also why people had like 20 kids. Frankly it's relatively recently that the standards we know today were put in place, and I'm happy for the strides we've made but there's still room for improvement, but this type of shit happened by all religions for most of recorded history and probably before that until like, 19xx.
Coming back to add in an edit, here's an article I saw this morning.

It's definitely not just Christians, this is from today.
Yeah, this is one of those cases where it very much was a standard of its times. Even in societies that were generally egalitarian ya saw it since well as you stated infant mortality was real fucken high and giving birth wasvery dangerous.
Is it really so surprising?
Wait for them to learn about islam
Yes
