Wow! You got a problem!

Just mind your own business, will ya? Your elitist rant makes no difference, liberty is liberty, the Duggars are free to live how they wish, they harm no one, not even you.

They are a family, not some public chartered institution that has oversight from you or me.

Wow.

No, rather than that blather from you against me, maybe you need to get on your meds.

You speak of liberty...that liberty is liberty...that the Duggars are free (and they are), and yet you tell me basically to shut up.

You wouldn't know the first thing about liberty or freedom. That makes you the elitist ranter, and your post proves this.

They can talk about whatever and however they wish - and I have no problem with this - but so can I on this thread.

You seem to want it one way: freedom for others but not for me. If you truly are otherwise then you cannot and will not tell me to mind my own business. Got it? Good. Now scram....

And did I ever say that they were harming anyone?

All you have is Ad Homs now, because you know as well as I know that their beliefs are not Biblical.

These beliefs cannot be proved to be Biblically-based, either, because no true exegetic and hermeneutic approach would bolster theses beliefs.

I apologize for any insult my comment has made.

I do not wish to argue, you are indeed free to voice your opinion, as am I. I do prefer to keep it civil, espc. in such an impersonal forum; in person we would act like gentlemen. We probably hold many similar beliefs/positions and likely have much more in common than not.

Whether I agree with the Duggars, or you, for that matter, is irrelevant to the Duggars choices. They are representative of what’s right with our society, bot with what’s wrong (opinion, take it or leave it, I suppose).

My only and final comment is that if you wish to advise or instruct the Duggars on matters of faith and living they are available. As a public family, I am certain they receive lots of mail etc.

Again, sincere apologies.

Best;

Apology accepted. And for my part, I am far from perfect, and so I apologize if I have offended you or anyone else.

I do not wish to advise or instruct the Duggars on matters of faith and/or living. They have a television forum, and are free to talk about whatever they wish, be it morals, matters of faith, dating, manner and types of attire, what foods they eat (apparently lots of pickles), etc, etc, etc.

And other, like certain of their children, have a forum (via a book) and the television show “19 Kids and counting” to talk about whatever they wish to (be it matters of faith, morals, life encounters, obstacles they have overcome, what they are looking for, hoping for in this life, etc).

And we, too, here at FR have a forum, too, to talk about matters of faith, morals, etc.
