I wonder if George Soros was behind the releasing the report of a minor - just saying.
I still feel how the Duggars handle it was right.
Obviously his parents knew soon after it happened. The police much later.
If I have read the reports correctly, Josh reoffended at least twice after JimBob spoke to him. That means JimBob was ineffective.
The Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector
9 To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everyone else, Jesus told this parable: 10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other people—robbers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector. 12 I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.’
13 “But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.’
14 “I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”
Wait before you throw bible verses around. This story is far from over. this is just the tip of the ice berg.
Besides, child molesters NEVER humble themselves. They just tell us what they think we want to hear then go right back at it.
They knew after BOTH times. But wait...there is more to come. Like I keep saying Tip of Ice Berg.
The point here shouldn’t be who is better than whom. That is always a lose before God.
The worst iceberg is in many hearts.
This is not about Josh or the Duggars. (Note the source, People Magazine.) Over ten years ago, Josh behaved very badly. He was disciplined, and apologized to all including his victims. As far as I know, he asked for and got forgiveness. All of the Duggars are being trashed for the acts of one of them. The Duggars show is gone, so they will not be in the public eye in the future. But the Duggars are not the point. For left anyone who is Christian must be destroyed. To the left, the Duggars represented Christian values which have to be demonized at all cost. One of their children made a bad mistake. Now their values and all of them are worthless. This is what the left does, and this is how the useful idiots on the right enable them.
Does anyone know the ages of Duggar and the girls at the time of these molestations? From what I can find, he was about 15, but no one ever mentions the girls’ ages.
George Soros or Mama June.
I agree. Much more to this story. They will lawyer up pretty soon.
The girls were 18m to 2yrs. He was 14.
No.
The worst iceberg is the damage to the victims.
They will not even understand the losses they will have in their lives because of this for a long time.
One could even say that those who have stumbled and fallen in a fight with perversion, with misplaced sexuality, and then risen once more by the grace of God, have a more realistic view of the matter than those who never sinned at all.
But as you say, the left doesn’t care about that, other than for the figleaf of “pedophilia” accusations. Which they’d happily do away with if they could, viz. NAMBLA.
Take your own temperature first... the grace of God conquers many a mountain that men’s means cannot touch.
I think he is two years older than the older Duggar daughter. So the girls he molested would have been in the age range of between 5 and 12, when these events happened.
>>The girls were 18m to 2yrs. He was 14.
Too bad for him that he’s not a lesbian with an HBO show. They get a free pass on that sort of thing.
But, inexcusable for either of them.
And it will be many so called conservatives that will have hounded them into that position, if they do.
