Apparently the arguments raised by Liepert and others have given many the false impression that Aisha's age is a long contested issue in Islam, and that it is a valid argument over interpretation that could eventually lead to reforms within mainstream Islam. The problem I have with this, is that it is certainly not an argument over interpretation.
The text clearly say one thing and one thing only. For anyone with a little knowledge on the subject and who has actually read the source material, it is disingenuous to claim otherwise. For people like Liepert, simply lying about what sources say may be effective in apologetic pieces, but they are useless if the intentions behind them are to reform the religion.

A number of converts to Islam have appeared in the media due to their involvement in terrorism or terrorist organizations. Although terrorism is not exclusive to the Islamic ideology, it should be noted that a disproportionate number of terrorists are Muslims who are motivated by the teachings of Islam. Many converts to Islam are more zealous than those who are born into it; learning as much about their new found faith as they can. When they do that, the only conclusion that they can draw is that Islam's deity endorses terrorism and rewards the terrorists. The hate for non-Muslims found in Islam is quickly picked up by those who convert to it. As a result, these converts often turn to the practice or support of terrorism and violence; often showing hatred for their own countries, people, and their former way of life. (read more)
