I watched that show all of 15 minutes and turned it off - it was disgusting.
The poisonous system that protected Josh Duggar. Shame that we as a country though the Duggars were reality TV schlock than an aberrant and dangerous lifestyle and mindset.
Oh thats just awful... I read the whole thread.

This makes me want to vomit. I hope he gets the maximum penalty. No matter how they want to label themselves, they are not Bible-believing/practicing Christians. They are evil cult leaders who are abusing children on many levels. Unfortunately, I know some who are like them in my fellowship. My wife is a public school teacher and we support public education. We've been called everything under the sun by them. In the name of Jesus of course

FIFYI saw an article earlier that said his wife was standing by him. She is the definition of brainwashed.
Put yourself in her shoes. She's literally in a cult, man. She really doesn't have many options. I can’t imagine she has much real choice about leaving. She’s a 32-year-old mother of 6 with a 7th on the way.I saw an article earlier that said his wife was standing by him. She is the definition of enabler.
This is really beyond her. She's essentially a slave. This is what the "quiverfull" movement is. It makes chattel out of women in the modern era."My scenario is: she’ll apologize for her sin of not being desirable enough to keep him faithful or being too demanding that he take out the garbage, or whatever else made her not ****able enough to keep him from sinning. Because Josh Duggar’s sexual urges are not Josh Duggar’s fault. They are the fault of his wife who was not attractive or available enough. She's very likely been conditioned to think that way and I'm sure the family will encourage it. Chattel doesn’t really get to complain about what its owner does. "
Jeez I looked and I last mentioned it 6½ years ago. Where has the time gone?Maybe I've mentioned it in the past, but my wife and my older daughters were Jehovah's Witnesses when we met.
JMO, but I think most religions are disgusting. I don't just mean the people - the religions themselves.Jeez I looked and I last mentioned it 6½ years ago. Where has the time gone?
Long story short it amounted to "him (Dub) or us?" (the Kingdom Hall).
Biggest problem was "us" included an abusive ex the elders preferred she remain married to rather than date a "secular" man. Said ex is currently enjoying a prime villa in Kilby for what he did to her and my older girls, and was in said villa at the time the elders issued their edict to her. Kidnapping and menacing charges for those curious. He held them at gunpoint.
Obviously, as we're married now and said girls are legally my daughters, she was promptly disfellowshiped, i.e. formally shunned. According to JW doctrine she remains disfellowshiped to this day.
I have my CCP and pack heat, and my wife knows where my guns are and how to use them in the event he ever shows up.
I either missed you mentioning it or I forgot it. Did not know you weren’t the bio dad of all your kids. It is great you stepped in and became their real dad and they have a positive role model and not a sicko like him around.Jeez I looked and I last mentioned it 6½ years ago. Where has the time gone?

I'm sure you either are or will - but teach your daughters how to shoot safely too. It may benefit them someday. I wish I had learned growing up instead of an adult. Not that I'd have done any differently, but would have been less nervewracking to learn.Jeez I looked and I last mentioned it 6½ years ago. Where has the time gone?

one of the "stars" of the in retrospect awfully named "19 kids and Counting" on TLC a show about the Quiverfull Christian cultIs it safe to ask,"Who is Josh Duggar?"
Asking for a friend.
And for full disclosure, TLC is The Learning Channel.one of the "stars" of the in retrospect awfully named "19 kids and Counting" on TLC a show about the Quiverfull Christian cult
with their continued support of this human filth, they may as well change it to mean touching little childrenAnd for full disclosure, TLC is The Learning Channel.
A place for leaning minds
Thanks, man. Today actually marks my 7th year as the luckiest man alive.I either missed you mentioning it or I forgot it. Did not know you weren’t the bio dad of all your kids. It is great you stepped in and became their real dad and they have a positive role model and not a sicko like him around.
