A creationism activist suggested Josh Duggar be punished for molesting his sleeping sisters and their friends by being paid to campaign against LGBT people marrying one another.

That’s exactly what the 27-year-old Duggar was doing until Thursday, when he resigned his position with the Family Research Council after admitting to “inexcusable behavior” as a teenager.





“Since Josh molested girls, which could damage their trust of men, which could damage their future marriage, which could damage their future family, we should make Josh Duggar work the rest of his life to help families stay together and help them recognize how twisted the world is and how God offers instruction on how to live righteously!” said Hovind, who is affiliated with the Olive Baptist Church in Pensacola, Florida.

1. Wow, that's some seriously twisted logic.

.. about a seriously twisted guy from a seriously twisted guy.

[Gothmog]

2. The people defending this person are sad and this is a dumb reason to defend this idiot

[Johonny]

3. The only damage people like Hovind are worried about is to their bottom line

him and his dad always been in it for the money. Duggar damages his brand of bullshit, so of course he needs to defend it with... crazy shit. I never believe this guy cares one bit about creationism or Josh Duggar. He wants the cash kissing up to the believers brings him. These guys are all scam artists with odd fetishes.

4. Either this guy doesn't understand evolution

or he's really bad at making logical deductions. Either way, I find their defense of a child molester sickening.

5. I've heard this argument a lot from the christofacists

If you don't believe in "God" then there is no reason for you to have morals. There is no morality.

It's OK to molest children because no one (God) will ever hold you to account.

What they are really saying is that "Prove evolution and you disprove the literal Bible... and that means *I* don't have to have morals anymore". And this is because the only reason to have morals is FEAR of what God will do to punish you.

Sad.

6. That argument is particularly ridiculous coming from a Christian.

Isn't the whole point of Christianity that Christians don't ever get held to account for their "sins" by God? Don't they get forgiven and never have to answer for any rotten things they have done? Isn't that what the entire religion is about?

7. 1. that's the ol' is/ought problem, which most adults have managed to grapple with, 2. no

8. It's all in God's plan.

If God is omnipotent he made it happen.

If God is omniscient he knew it was going to happen.

If God is omnipresent he was there when it happened.

Argle-bargle.

9. If the Bible is true, then it wasn't wrong for him to molest his sisters

The Bible is chalk full of sexual abuse and incest, after all, beginning with the logical deductions about Adam and Eve's offsprings' rather limited reproductive options.
