    Default QuiverFull - A fundamentalist Christian sect

    QuiverFull is best known as the sect of fundamentalist Christianity practiced by the Duggar family (of reality TV fame). But they have been around for a while.
    QuiverFull claims to be Bible-based faith that is endorsed by God. If you aren't among them, you aren't a real Christian.
    The faithful believe that men should be men and women should be breed sows. That means girls should be married off as early as possible so they can start having and raising children. Which is their only designated function in life.

    http://www.quiverfull.com/

    Quiverful was in the news recently when his planned "Get The Married" camp was cancelled when some nasty people learned of its true purpose.
    For $1200 per family, you sent your teen children to a "retreat" where the girls would be matched up and married off to boys. If the girls look ready, they are ready! Let the baby-making begin!

    Really???
    Never heard of them--are they a billion strong like the murder cult Islam or just a handful of people?
    And for your information 15 years old is still legal age to marry in some states, with parental consent.
    Not that I myself recommend it..
    I wanted my daughter to wait until at least 18 years old or older--my preferred age was for a girl was 22 and for a guy 28..


    Citing some small and abnormal group is the best you can do..
    Yet you can find none of the top CHRISTIAN DENOMINATIONS DOING SUCH..
    Thus you fail in the comparison by trying to tarnish Christianity while defending(attempting to justify) Islam's savagery, murder, raping , torture and enslavement of its women..
    EVEN IF SOME OTHER MAJOR RELIGION DID SUCH THINGS HOW WOULD THAT EXCUSE ISLAM AND ITS BARBARISM, CHILD MOLESTING , GAY HANGING, AND MURDERING ???
    You are fighting a lost cause.....
    Truth about Islam and ITS COMMANDMENTS FROM THE KORAN ARE TOO EASY TO FIND--LET GOOGLE BE YOUR FRIEND... --TYR
    18 U.S. Code § 2381-Treason Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

    Never heard of them either, but I do not cling to T.V. 'Reality' programs.

    From your posting, they are a cheap, scamming, money seeking cult.

    I see similarities to "Rev" Jim Jones and his Jonestown mass murders;
    David Coresh (sp) and his Branch Dividians; and with the cult
    that committed mass suicide in CA thinking the Hale-Bopp Comet was
    a spaceship sent to carry them to another world.

    Nut-cases All!

    Not worth my concern or sweat.

    I have lost my mind. If found, please give it a snack and return it?

    Did you hear about those guys strapping bombs to their women and children and blowing up non-believers? Oh - what about the time they hijacked an airline? Remember when they took kids out of junior high and drove them to get abortions unbeknownst to the kids' parents? Remember that time they Rioted and burned down their own city because they believed lies about the police? OH! Remember that time..

    No. You don't. Because it never happened. Todays liberals/progressives are the domestic terrorists at times - Islam is another.
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    Stirring shit, Gabby? A couple of problems with your one-way BS. One, people like you tried to call Fred Phelps a Christian and a Baptist and there was nothing Christian nor Baptist about him. Two, Christinas recognize we are all human and the only perfect one was Christ. The rest of us are going to screw up.

    Christ taught forgiveness, He didn't teach that people should be all over each others weaknesses, blow them out of proportion and/or flat out lie.

    Maybe your question should be: Why do I call myself a liberal when I'm really a fascist?
