Aishah was not 6 when the wedding happened, so you can lay that issue to rest.
> 2) massacring
Any battle that happened was either (1) out of self defense, (2) after the other party broke a peace treaty.
3) stoning
Taken straight from the Torah, which I believe you must accept given you are Christian. Try finding any incidents of stoning after the Ayah for punishment of adulterers (by lashing) was revealed.
> 4) forcing other people to stone women
They came to the Prophet, Peace be upon him, asking for the penalty for what they did, which was then picked straight out of the Torah.
> If there is one thing islam promises more than anything else, it's that the caliph will win any war, any battle.
No it does not. The Muslims were defeated in the Battle of Uhud, way before any Caliphs came into rule.
> By the way, I take it you agree on the validity of the fatwa that it is haram for muslims to not live in the state of the caliph
You're moving away from the original subject. But no, that fatwa you're referring to is just one opinion. I already answered this before, as long as you're able to practice you're religion easily, and there are many other Muslims in the same place, there no issue God willingly.
> Dr. Salih bin Fawzan
He has been severely criticized for several things he said. What you have to keep in mind is that any fatwa can be challenged. It is an opinion of one or more persons, and not binding.
> Why don't you comment on the obvious fact that they were honorable and moral by NOT following that law
So they were honorable by explicitly deciding not to follow what they believe God revealed to them? That's some double standard right there. Why did they come to the Prophet, Peace be upon him in the first place? And why did they try to hide the penalty right in front of him? It's basically picking and choosing what they like and leaving what they don't like from the Torah.
> Note that you skirt around the issue of stoning for even suspected adultery.
There is no punishment for suspected anything in Islam. We have several Hadiths that have the same meaning: ادرؤوا الحدود بالشبهات (i.e. fend off penalties with suspicion). For the penalty for adultery to hold, there needs to be four witnesses, who witnessed the actual act (not just saw a couple hugging or kissing, for instance). If any one of them decides to change his word after testifying, then the supposed witnesses will be penalized. And for your information, not once did this take place in the history of Islam. And please don't bring up what is happening in Iran today; it does not carry weight religiously; even though it is quite tragic what they're doing.
> I take it you are a sunni then
I'm Muslim. I know the position of some of the Shi'ah with regards to her. At the end of the day, the proof is on the one making the claim. The sources they use to make these false claims about her do not hold up to scrutiny (they are falsified stories).
> because of the agreement between Abu Bakr and Muhammad
I'm still waiting for a reference, even if it were a Shi'i one.
> does the prophet get to have sex before marriage
Of course he doesn't.
> and then proceeded to immediately to massacre former parts of the muslim army in what is called the "apostasy wars"
Explicitly denying an established part of the faith (in this case, Zakah) constitutes apostasy.
At the end of the day, you're not bringing up anything we haven't heard before (or just making up stories I have no idea where you came up with), hoping that something would "stick" perhaps?. Rest assured though, that over the course of the past 1400+ years, there is nothing that scholars have not been able to refute, thank God. Even with my basic knowledge, I'm able to find out the chain of narration of claims you and others make, only to discover that they are fabricated stories, or picked apart and misconstrued to try to show a certain aspect while hiding the whole story.
