marry our 14 year old daughter!

somewhat disturbed, okay, quite disturbed, by this site "marry our daughter."  at first i think i was thrown by the ages.. then the prices. so what is the motivation for such a site?

Marry Our Daughter is an introduction service assisting those following the Biblical tradition of arranging marriages for their daughters.

i might be off with this, but my understanding of marriages being arranged in the bible are much more about the chronicling of a series of relationships joined by a cultural practice. not a biblical practice. however, someone might throw at me a "fathers, arrange for your daughters to have a husband at a young age and get a decent penny in return for it." it might then go on to say, then send them to college so that they can be a good wife. i'm feeling sick now...

tip: brittney

update: just an fyi, snopes has a breakdown why this site might be fake, but it doesn't say either way
