Here's a short list of children raised by good Christian heterosexual parents with great morals: Josh Duggar.


The Duggars are find Christians. I know because Mike Huckabee said so in his recent statement supporting them

I'm sure Dennis Hastert is also a fine role model.

I wonder what the percentage is of children who would take the steps that would send one of their children to prison.

Lobo- I think that the fact that Josh Duggar committed his offenses AT THE SAME TIME as his father was publicly stating that rape and incest should be punishable by death raises some serious questions about the father's integrity, especially since he took steps to make certain that records regarding his son's offenses were destroyed.

I think most people who believe in the death penalty (or even life in prison) as an appropriate penalty for murder would nonetheless take steps to help their child avoid that penalty.

And didn't the Duggars intentionally delay things till the statute of limitations was passed?

At least so far as the father goes we know he's a vital and energetic fellow - he probably thinks of the show as '19 kids and mounting.'

I'm still thinking David Kaczynski is the exception.

You send 14 year olds to prison now? (That being the age when Josh admitted his wrong doing to his pa.)

I think the relevant point here is that Duggar and the organization he belongs to, as well as his supporters like Huckabee, are among the most outspoken against equal rights for members of the LGBT community.

It's simply about the sheer hypocrisy.

The conversation when Josh confessed to his Pa.

"Dad, I ***ed sis."

"Whew, at least you're not gay."

I'm not sure how that's relevant.

There's a special "prison" called "Juvenile Hall" for minors who commit serious crimes. When they reach 18, they are released and their records sealed. Craig Price killed people here in Rhode Island and bragged that he would get out at 18. Then they found him violating rules in the Hall and transferred him to prison at 18. He claimed it was because he was black, and yet, his behavior keeps getting his sentence in prison extended.

Although, there are some areas where minors as young as 15 can be tried and sentenced as adults.

The chances are there's a gay kid in that family somewhere, and it's going to be interesting to see if the parents are as forgiving when that comes up as they have been with Josh.

Lobo, this family hold themselves up as exemplars of traditional Christian marriage. They, and Josh in particular, use the family mores to assert the superiority of 'traditional' marriage over gay marriage. But their lifestyle failed at least 6 children - 1 son, 4 daughters, and someone else's daughter did not get the childhood they deserved.

Really? The relevance seems obvious to me. On the one hand you have people condemning gay marriage, and on the other, you have many of the same people supporting the Duggars.

I don't even like the sound of the name, "Duggars". Good thing I am open minded and listen to reason. Smile
If I were to agree with you. Then we would both be wrong. As of Apr 5, 2015 10:26 pm I have 880 posts. Used to have over 1,000
