The man in the OP is a fully grown adult who can make his own decisions of who to marry and who not to marry. In fact, those who judge the woman are suggesting that this man is incapable of making his own choices. If he has half a brain, he is well aware of her past and the possible ramifications of marrying into it and he likely knows her far better than those who judge her know her. However, a child....as the conversation here has turned to...does not have the brain of an adult and they require adults to make those decisions for them. They do not have "capacity" for informed consent, etc. The young man in the OP should not be judged by those in the church, nor should the woman. And comparing this to a child molesting scenario is, imo, totally uncalled for because it is not even close in nature.
