Again, here in the US we congratulate ourselves for the combined act of thumbing our nose at God, tactility giving the State the power to become the dispenser of rights and the re-definer of pre-governmental institutions - this while we also insist that no one be allowed to exercise their basic right of conscience; all must participate to some degree in the act.
In America, we have destroyed marriage and the Liberties for which so much blood was shed.
In Muslim-majority nations, marriage is not cast into the trash heap; it is stolen.
How many peoples in the history of the world have assumed that they can bask in security and prosperity ad infinitum while ignoring He who so blessed them?
The day may well come when we will have to experience what non-Muslims in Muslim-majority nations have to fear on a daily basis, and we will have no one to blame but ourselves.
Hat tip to Jihad Watch-
"Most of the 234 Borno schoolgirls in Boko Haram captivity have been ferried abroad to Chad and Cameroon after they were married off to sect members on N2,000 [Just over$12.00] bride price each, an elder told Daily Trust yesterday.
The female students were taken from their hostels at the Government Girls Secondary School Chibok on the night of April 14.
About 40 had escaped in the days after the incident, but parents and school authorities said at least 234 of them were yet to be found.
Dr. Pogu Chibok, who is the leader of the Chibok Elders Forum, told Daily Trust yesterday that latest information available to them indicates that most of the girls have been taken to the neighboring Cameroon and Chad by their captors.
He said before they were ferried in canoes across the Lake Chad, a wedding ceremony was conducted at a town on the border with Cameroon where they were married off to Boko Haram militants.
He said N2,000 was paid as bride price on each of the girls to the specific Boko Haram members who took them from their school and who had assumed "ownership" of the students.
"They ferried them in canoes to Cameroon and Chad republic after they were wedded off to Boko Haram members who bidded (sic) and paid N2,000 each as dowries on their heads," Bitrus said.
"The dowry was paid to their captors, the very people who abducted them from their school. One of them who married one of the girls took her to a border town close to Cameroon where villagers saw her.".........
"On Sunday they were taken to Dikwa area where they (Boko Haram) have a camp there. From there they took them to Marte, then Monguno before they were finally ferried in canoes. It was yesterday we got this latest report of them being married off to the insurgents by their captors."................
"Female parents have been crying day and night, because nobody knows what government is doing about the whole issue. All that we read in the papers is that Nigerian Army have done this or that."...................."
