Your points sort of go along with the free pass Jesus gets with his more objectionable views.

He was a man of his time and did good in it.

 

 

Whatever the cultural norm was,  I think many find the child marriage objectionable as Mohammed was quite old and the fact that such marriages are between two young people in Western Culture.

Many people find the child marriage "questionable" because they don't know anything about it and it's intentions. This marriage was actually more benefitial for Aisha because she went from a regular girl to practically a Queen for the rest of her life. If people actually knew what the marriage was for and its intentions, they would stop using it as a constant attack on Islam.
