Duggar Parents Lying to Protect Son Josh? Expert Says '19 Kids and Counting' Parents were Untruthful

Here are five times where Glass felt the "19 Kids and Counting" parents were trying to hide the truth, according to Radar Online.

Michelle Duggar volunteers too much information – Watch closely the entire interview and one would easily note that Michelle is constantly giving away more information than required. This, according to Glass, is a form of deception.

Michelle Duggar looks for reassurance – All throughout the interview Michelle looks at her husband for reassurance. This and the fact that she gives away too much information are hints that the whole thing was rehearsed, believes Glass.

"Michelle Duggar it is loaded with deception. She tells too much story and embellishment and gives too much away. It is such complete deception," Glass told Radar Online.

Fake tears – "Michelle pretends she is crying but there are no tears. No one cries without tears. She is sobbing and there are absolutely no tears! Another thing that struck me is that Michelle wiped one eye at a time. You don't cry one eye at a time."

That’s a 30% death rate...and she was fortunate... there were many families who had higher rates of death.

As for Dugggar’s your watching what it looks like to be under the sway of cult teachings...Why everything appears so scripted...and why their relationships are what they are.

Their life is a “Performance/Image based and Fear based” religion which is legalistic to the extreme....and because the indoctrination is so subtle, as with most cult’s going in, the family “beleives” what they’re practicing and saying even if their heart might tell them otherwise. The teachings “trap them” from critical thinking of their own.

Jimbo...I finally looked at the teachings they are following...it’s clearly a cult. So we cannot expect any clear answers from this family which isn’t seen thru the “lens” of the cult teachings.

THEY BELIEVE...and it’s important to remember they do ‘believe’ in those teachings for their family and that they are doing the right thing. People “controlled” and “deceived” cannot see that they are.

These are not people who structure their life around biblical teachings....rather they structure biblical teachings to fit the cult teachings.

Let me give an example of how the enemy of men’s souls has deceived this family.....

Gothard made it clear that when any of his teachings were challenged, it wasn’t a challenge to Gothard. It was a challenge to ‘their own personal belief system’....

Pretty shifty and often used to entrap people in cults?

"You constantly engage in the ultimate act of LEGALISM -- accusing someone that has repented (and others say has repented) of not being saved and condemning him or her of past sins. There is nothing is more legalistic than that."

Damned right I use that word, because it's accurate. Too bad if you don't like it.

If you're truly unable to see legalism in the Bill Gothard cult, I suggest you might want to acquire a sense of discernment.

"And, if super duper legalism bothers you so much, why aren't you on a jihad about the Amish?"

There's the "jihad" meme again; the memo must have gone out among the perversion apologists.

You asked me this days ago and received an answer, but I'm in the mood to be tolerant of you, so I'll repeat it.

The Amish are self-sufficient. They don't sell their kids on TV for houses and furniture and appliances. The Amish go about their daily lives, quietly.

Both the Amish and the Duggars claim to be "not worldly." The Amish walk the walk, but the Duggars? Not so much. They have the internet, twitter, facebook, etc., and Daddy likes to grind his butt into Mom's rear in front of his teenaged daughter and her fiance.

If the police report is true then why was he not arrested?

"Sarah Palin attended one of Gothard's conferences. Was she doing the same? Or are Gothard's teachings more mainstream than you're aware of?"

You asked me the same thing elsewhere and I haven't gotten around to a response until now.

First, I don't see what Sarah Palin has to do with anything.

But Gothard? Mainstream? Seriously?

Only if you find holding hands and kissing before marriage sinful. Or if you think full-frontal hugs are dangerous, and only side-hugs should be allowed.

Or if you believe women should be covered up neck to feet, or that females in a family should have a codeword to whisper to the males so they can drop their eyes when a woman walks by.

Or if you think that children should be discouraged from making friends outside the family, and instead cultivate their siblings as "best friends."

Or if you think the cult leader---whoops, pardon me, I meant "pastor!"---should be allowed to dictate how long females wear their hair, what color makeup they use, etc.

Kazan, are you a Gothard follower?

No wonder they ended up with a kid messed up enough to fondle his sisters.

Thank you for all of that research, caww. Now it should be obvious to anyone that the Duggars are neck-deep not only in false teaching, but a controlling cult.

I’ve seen the police report and plenty of articles which broke it down.

They all state it was a minor girl who went to Jimbob (that name!) crying. The parents did nothing, and three months later Josh admitted to it.

Not one source has contradicted Josh’s age at the time of the molestations, which was 14.

Why are you trying so hard to excuse Josh Duggar, even to the point of making things up? I don’t understand why a conservative is so anxious to justify a pervert.

There are plenty of perverts in the world. Liberal and conservative. Pagan and christian. Gay and straight. You get the idea.

"If the police report is true then why was he not arrested?"

Ol' Jimbob conveniently waited 16 months to report what happened. By the time the investigation began, the statute of limitations was up---and Jimbob refused to allow the police to question Josh.

You're not really suggesting the police report is fake, are you?

They are not true Christians, but I get your point. They do play Christians on TV.

“They do play Christians on TV.”

They play something, but it’s not Christians. Don’t know about the rest of you all but, this is not any Christianity I grew up with.

I been doing some more digging, the rabbit hole seems to go deeper. Before I tell you what I’ve found, want to remind you that I’ve never watched this show, only reading about it now, and I grew up with reruns of the Munsters and Addams family. Up until now those two families where the strangest things I’d ever seen, now they are normal.

Jessa Duggar Asked Josh Duggar For Kissing Lessons

“An old Jessa Duggar interview has resurfaced to creep out 19 Kids and Counting fans.

Jezebel recently pointed out that a few of Jessa Duggar’s comments from an old Cosmopolitan interview seem extremely disturbing given the recent allegations that Josh Duggar sexually molested four of his sisters. As the Inquisitr previously reported, he allegedly fondled their breasts and genitals, often while they were sleeping.

It’s not known whether Jessa Duggar was one of Josh Duggar’s alleged victims, but there’s a good chance that she was — there were only five daughters living in the Duggar household at the time the reported molestation took place. If Josh did sexually abuse Jessa, she hasn’t let it show that she’s uncomfortable around her older sibling. In fact, she told Cosmopolitan that she’s so close to her big bro that she planned on asking him for kissing lessons.

“My parents are pretty good kissers!” Jessa said after being asked who she would go to for kissing advice. “They very much like to show their kiss in public places, so they kiss in front of us all the time. [And I’d ask] my oldest brother. He’s been married for five years. And friends and people around me who I look up to. But I don’t think it’s too hard to figure out though.”

Jessa Duggar’s parents have a huge issue with physical contact between unwed boys and girls. As 19 Kids and Counting fans know, Jessa and her husband, Ben Seewald, were expected to save their first kiss until their wedding day, and they didn’t get to hold hands until they were engaged. It’s easy to imagine Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar breaking off a courtship if one of their daughters takes things too far with a guy before her wedding day, but they didn’t send Josh Duggar packing after he reportedly molested his sisters.

Jessa, Jana, Jill, and Jinger Duggar published a book titled Growing Up Duggar that explains some of the Duggar family’s strict courtship rules and thoughts on modesty. In one passage, the girls talk about how they view their bodies.”

I saw that. My parents like to show their kiss. What the hell does that even mean?
