Unfortunately, we do have an idea. http://mic.com/articles/119098/inside-the-christian-cult-that-told-the-duggars-to-blame-their-daughters-for-their-abuse |
Clearly, we need to STOP calling them Christians, and START calling them what they are: Quiverfuls.
Ok? |
The Duggars are not hypocrites. They have said that Joshua's actions were completely wrong and they sought help.
A hypocrite is a Congressman who is opposed to Gay rights but is secretly a homosexual. Get it? |
Not quite but good try. A hypocrite is someone that says trans people are a danger to our children knowing you have someone that is a danger to our children and theirs in their own home. |
Maybe you should ask yourself why there is such latent dislike in the culture for fundamentalist Christians. And if you're clueless, it's because they go around advocating discrimination against or outright terrorizing people whose behavior, lifestyle or nature they disapprove of. Last I checked, nobody hates the Amish, since they mind their own business. Learn to live and let live and mind your own business; respect the separation of church and state that's enshrined in our laws, and people won't fall on you like a ton of bricks when it turns out you live in a glass house. Organized Christianity has been losing adherents in the past decade to the tune of 1% a year and will probably continue to do so until you learn tolerance. |
You have no idea how the Juvenile Justice system or social services works in most states. This is what would happen - Josh would be removed from the family for a while and get counseling. This is what happened to him anyhow. He was 14 not 18. Big Difference. He would not have been locked up for life. Who cares that he received Christian counseling instead of secular counseling? He would have received the same information/counsel: Don't do this. It is wrong. It is harmful. There are not many different ways of telling him this. It is not rocket science. Someone with a PhD is not going to do very much differently than a pastor. This is the truth. |

Please read this. http://www.rawstory.com/2015/05/heres-how-the-duggars-patriarchal-homeschool-world-teaches-kids-to-shame-sex-abuse-victims/ There is every reason to believe that the Duggars would blame the victims. |
did you read the Duggars' statement? They blamed Josh entirely and they also blamed themselves. The wrote that they thought they had taught him right from wrong (but they failed.)
This is what is wrong with you haters --- you make assumptions. |
Don't try to reason with these people, they don't care if they are right or wrong, they just want to keep arguing about the duggars being hypocrites. You'll never change their minds, because they're so close minded. Liberals are the biggest hypocrites out there. Every thing they say they are, they are the opposite of. |
Sometimes your kids choose to do wrong. But most of us here don't much care about you and your kid. You're not on tv. |
Thank you. I agree completely. |
Except the liberal busybodies, they are in every bodies business. |
