Yeah, but the size of the family is result of the sick belief system in place. While not in an of itself a bad thing, it was symptomatic of the problem.
They creeped me out too
Now that is sick playing doctor with a sister once is kinda ok going in for a second or third opinion is sick sick sick sure she has a blouse for of goodies but its just wrong wrong wrong
I can see your point, but if you look at what Gothard actually teaches those ideal are distorted and become something else entirely.
Questions of dress and modesty change from society to society and there is no universal indicator of modesty. Unless a mullet and a mumu are in the bible somewhere. :)
Agreed.
Well, that was gross. I wonder if that boy ever asked her out again? Or maybe he’s the one she married.
Just ewww...
The family size was no problem for me either as I fully believe that we belong wholly to Christ. God is the author of life, who are we to tell Him how he is to bless us?
Jim Bob alone gave off the creepy vibe to me, I just figured I was misreading nerdiness as creepy. Most of the guys I’ve known well were different-either athletes or real outdoorsmen. He is the softer more awkward kind. His wife always seems a bit uncomfortable when he goes into “affectionate” mode. How they ended up together is a mystery.
It amazes me how the progs are viciously piling on to condemn this guy while at the same time celebrating the decision of the Boy Scouts to allow sodomites as Scout leaders. ?
In what alternate universe, or redneck county do “Good Christians” have sex with 4 baby sisters and a cousin? Seriously sounds like a Jeff Foxworthy Joke. Seriously Josh, go convert to Islam, you’d be right at home there.
I have heard others say they creeped them out. Did not realized until now how much people thought so. Until now the Munsters are now cool neighbors to have.
I was never a fan of this family. And, based on the police report, what he did at age 14 was horrible.
However, there appears to be a lot of misinformation spreading here.
For example, people are claiming there was a cover up. But, the parents told many people - church elders, family friends, and everyone they knew. So, apparently, this wasn’t a secret.
Also, people are claiming that he and his parents blame his sisters. But he and his parents never said that. So, no one knows if it’s even true that they blame the girls. The rumor started because of a curriculum the family allegedly uses. Doesn’t everyone have books that contain parts they disagree with?
The story is disturbing as is. It should start a conversation on what to do if your child is acting... disturbed. But the rumors are getting out of control.
“It amazes me how the progs are viciously piling on to condemn this guy”
He admitted to molesting his baby sisters and a cousin. He is a child molester. What part about that don’t you get?
“Also, people are claiming that he and his parents blame his sisters. “

Timeline.
It was years before they “went to the authorities”. AFTER the statue of limitations had expired.
And the authority was a pervert LEO who gave him a “stern talking to”.
I just viewed it—that’s beyond gross.
You stupidly forgot to include the rest of my post. Here it is in its entirety:

My point in making the statement is that those on the left see no irony in their outrage and condemnation of Duggar yet are quite alright with the idea of allowing sodomites access to young boys.
I did not comment on whether the condemnation was justified or not.
Do you understand now, or should I draw you a schematic?
The reason they are piling on the Duggars is because of the hypocrisy. Condemning gays as predators of children while they had one in the house.
Yes, I understand that, and it brings to mind a saying about people who live in glass houses.... Hypocrisy cuts both ways it seems.
Yep. If you jump into politics and chase the money, you may indeed reap the whirlwind.
I did read the article. It refers to some writing in a curriculum the parents are reported to use.
