Prepare to say goodbye to TLC show “19 Kids and Counting.”

The family-centric reality show is being pulled from the network’s TV schedule one day after Josh Duggar issued an apology following molestation allegations, Page Six has learned.

It’s unclear if the network has made any permanent decisions regarding the show’s future but information about the show remains on the network’s site as of Friday.

It wasn’t a wholesome unity. They’ve literally destroyed their daughters’ ability to get on with their lives with some kind of normalcy. Victims of sexual abuse are granted anonymity by the law for very good reasons. These girls don’t have that, and the risk of this coming out apparently didn’t hold much sway with the money flowing in. Mom and dad weren’t interested in protecting the dignity of the five girls when they made them public figures, in the event this were to come to light.

So a 14yr old male fondling the vagina of his FOUR YEAR OLD SISTER isn’t ‘serious’?

What, precisly, do you consider ‘serious’?

Read his statement. It mentions nothing about the damage he did to his victims, only gratefulness that he didn’t ruin his own future. Still, after over a decade, he’s not concerned about his very own sisters.

Pedos seldom quit acting on their impulses forever. Their recovery statistics are similar to those of meth or heroin addicts.

Anna better install in house video in every room in every angle. And even then she’ll never be able to be sure he hasn’t diddled his daughters.

You should worry more about Josh Duggar's sins & thoroughly criminal acts than my sins, numerous as they may be.

It's not place to be concerned with anyone's sins - not Duggars, not yours - I am only concerned with mine.

I just have one question.

Where do you go for your guilt?

.....any guilt....all guilt.....horrendous guilt....run of the mill guilt.....

Where do you go to absolve it?

It isn’t self righteous judgement to insist he be kept away from small children, forever, for their own good and the good of HIS own immortal soul.

Even the bible suggests millstones for such as Josh.

Would you let Josh babysit, unsupervised, your under age 8 children or grandchildren.

Yes or no.

Christian children should be trained to be well armed in the fight against Satan.
He does not waste his time on those who are already his own, but he lays traps and snares for Christians, knowing that when they fall, they do damage to the name of Jesus. Being a Christian means hand to hand combat with the Devil, the world and our own sinful nature.
When we sin, Jesus is there to forgive us, and gives us the power to overcome its consequences. Only with the Holy Spirit’s help through daily prayer and Bible study can we endure until the end.
“Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life.” (Revelation 2:10)

The Enemy was the one rejoicing when this matter was secret and the family was trying to keep it under wraps.

The Enemy was the one who delighted in every tear those girls wept.

The Enemy delighted every time Josh followed through every perverse thought.

The Enemy was pleased when the Duggars all but turned a blind eye to the situation.

The last thing The Enemy wants ia the exposure of child predation——because only after the exposure of wickedness can the victims begin to heal.

Lord, rescue these daughters. Send your servants to comfort them and help to restore them; bring them healing and wholeness.

Congratulate yourself.......pat yourself on the back....for ridding the airways of a family who tried to present a wholesome unity.

Josh Duggar sexually assaults family members, his family does the bare minimum (if that) to address it, and otherwise tries to keep it covered up.

But somehow it is everybody else's fault.

Do I have that right?

The Bible is very clear that once the offender has been dealt with, however he has been dealt with, none of us have a right to continually punish him.

He is allowed to carry on his life at that point as if he has committed no offense.


So we should just let all the murderers who say they're sorry out of jail, right?

Its not so much the crime, but the coverup. The parents clearly were aware of it for some time before taking action. And in all of their public statements since, I’ve seen nothing about the welfare of the girls, just about the welfare of their son and how he’s attempted to make amends.

Have the murderers finished the sentence they were sentenced to?

If so, yes. That is what you need to do, if we are to have a justice system based on Biblical guidelines.

If not, why would you let them out if they haven’t finished their sentence?

I admit I haven’t followed this closely, what exactly did he do as a teenager? I’ve heard he groped some girls, and that his family and the family of those girls stepped in and dealt with the issue.

I want to know exactly what he did, what age he did it and what exactly happened before I am going to say throw the book at him.

Lets face it, very few of us escaped our teens without doing things we shouldn’t have done... and fortunately most of us had someone around us who loved and cared for us to help us get back on the right track.

“Good. Fecundity is not a talent”

A six word post (really, only five) that speaks volumes. They might as well shut this thread down now - nothing more to say.

Love it.

>>>yes, raping kids and gluttony are completely equivalent.>>>

There is no difference in God's eyes.


All sins are NOT the same. Some sin is mortal, and some is not mortal.

"If you see your brother or sister committing what is not a mortal sin, you will ask, and God will give life to such a one—to those whose sin is not mortal. There is sin that is mortal; I do not say that you should pray about that. All wrongdoing is sin, but there is sin that is not mortal." - 1 John 5:16-17

Now your just talking common sense. We'll not have that around here!
