Report: Josh Duggar Wont Apologize For Sex Abuse Because Devil Made Him Do It

http://www.patheos.com/blogs/progressivesecularhumanist/2016/07/report-josh-duggar-wont-apologize-for-sex-abuse-because-devil-made-him-do-it/

Josh Duggar will not apologize for sexually abusing his underage sisters.

According to new reports Duggar will be returning to reality TV after completing a Christian “faith-based” rehabilitation program for sexual addiction earlier this year. Duggar entered the program after publicly admitting to molesting underage girls, including four of his sisters, as well as adultery and a pornography addiction....

The source goes on to explain that while Duggar will discuss sexually abusing his underage sisters as well as his marital infidelities and pornography addiction, he will not apologize for his actions, because the devil made him do it:
Josh will cover everything and he will maintain the family line that god has saved his soul and guided him back to the right path. But one thing you probably won’t hear is that he’s actually sorry, as he believes that external forces were to blame for his behavior.

Bottom line: When Josh blames “external forces” for his crimes, that’s code for “the devil made him do it.”


This guy?

Can't the 15 minutes stop dragging out for this bunch of sick cultists? They are desperate for that TV money and I don't know why they still have shows? They are freaks that let child molesters claim the devil made them do it, but women and girls are treated like slaves. How does anyone watch 5 minutes of this shit?

TLC expects his appearance to be “ratings gold”


Isn't making the women relive their abuse on national TV just another form of therapy? Sex abuse is a great money maker apparently. But as long as you give some of the victims a cut, it's all good.

And all of those around him are enabling him to go right ahead.

I'm at a loss for words for the victims (future and past).

There is no conscience, there is no responsibility, there is nothing to stop him from doing it again. I fear for his daughters and granddaughters.
