A 15-year decline in Texas teen birth rates slid to a stop—and converted into a modest increase in 2022, the year after the state Legislature implemented what was the nation’s strongest ban on abortion, according to new report from the University of Houston’s Institute for Research on Women, Gender & Sexuality.
Kids having kids is EXACTLY what Jesus would have wanted!
People taking responsability over their actions, exactly what Jesus wanted :)
He probably wouldn’t have a problem. Mary was 12-14 years old according to some sources and 15-16 in others when she was pregnant.
There is absolutely zero actual archeological evidence of Mary existing, much less records that might match her age at the time of her son’s birth.
She could have been 14 or 40 (or an entirely fictitious amalgamation of folk legends).
These “estimates” inevitable come from cranks whose guesstimates are plus or minus a decade and freaks who want to justify their desire to knock up teenagers.
I find it hard to believe there’s no evidence, I mean, the Romans ruled half the world and were meticulous and methodical in their record keeping. I find it difficult to imagine they have no historical records of Iesus Nazaretum.
Which is why a high profile trial of a famous Rabbi initiated by another famous Rabbi that involved the governor pardoning a known mass murderer to appease a mob just… not making the histories… would be bizarre.
Of course, this is also two millennia in hindsight and on the eve of a nasty uprising of Jewish dissidents at Masada.
It isn’t unreasonable to believe the histories of this period were deliberately purged or suppressed, and only survived as oral tradition, for the next two centuries.
