So being a Christian on the internet, I’ve encountered alot of things being said about the Bible. Like how there are many contradictions and that it supports horrible things like slavery and God is evil in the Bible. I didn’t really make it such a big issue but recently, I have encountered the claim that the Bible is actually in favour of pedophilia which was initially surprising since I have never heard that claim ever but of course, there were some verses to back it up. Here is a post on Reddit talking about it https://www.reddit.com/r/exchristian/comments/umtnja/the_bible_supports_pedophilia_but_condemns/ (This was the post where I initially saw the claim) So back to the question. Does the Bible actually support Pedophilia? Or is it just a misunderstanding of verses? This is my first question on StackExchange so I might not have given out the most information out there. Edit: Someone has asked for some relevant verses so I will list the verses that I've seen mentioned below: Exodus 21:7-10 Numbers 31:1-18 Deuteronomy 20:10-14 Judges 21:7-11 Judges 21:20-23
