I’m not accusing the Duggars of anything; it’s pretty common knowledge that they follow Gothard.
And I don’t “begrudge” them the way they bring up their children; it’s their choice. But I’m free to comment on it, and I think it’s strange and extreme.
One can dress modestly without being covered neck to feet. Legalism is a trap. Again, they can do what they want, but IMO it’s strange. The fact that Gothard tells women how to dress, how to wear their hair, etc. is more proof that the whole thing is a cult.
How do you know Josh Duggar is repentant? Have you talked to him? He came clean because the mess was made public. If he’s truly repentant, good for him, but neither you nor I can judge that.
Once again, as on other threads, I note that all of the crying and wailing is over poor Josh and his parents, with very little, if any, left over for the victims.
