The most obvious problem here is the victim blaming.

4. Why did God let it happen?

Result of defrauding by:

Immodest dress
Indecent exposure
Being out from protection of our parents
Being with evil friends.

But there’s also something more insidious going on.

3. What did the offender damage?

What parts do we damage with bitterness and guilt?

Then there was this story......

http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/religion/conservative-leader-bill-gothard-resigns-following-abuse-allegations/2014/03/07/0381aa94-a624-11e3-b865-38b254d92063_story.html

“Conservative leader Bill Gothard resigns following abuse allegations”

except

“Bill Gothard, an Illinois-based advocate for home schooling and conservative dress who warned against rock music and debt, has resigned from the ministry he founded after allegations of sexually harassing women who worked at his ministry and failing to report child abuse cases.

Gothard’s resignation from the Institute in Basic Life Principles, according to a letter sent to families affiliated with the ministry he founded, comes a week after he was put on administrative leave. According to an organizer involved in the whistle-blowing website Recovering Grace, 34 women told the website they had been sexually harassed; four women alleged molestation.”

So basically this is a cult, ran by a pervert. Are you surprised “Poor Little Josh” did what he did? Their Leader did it too!

Wow, I I wonder if the rest of the Duggars are normal.

Pope John Paul had a better vision. Maybe it will catch on.

[Morgana]

You really have to wonder?

I figure they have not been caught. Yet. They will. Give it time. Most of the other boys have not turned 18 and gotten away from their parents grasp.

Here is what I think. I think TLC should not have canceled this show. I also think the they should not have canceled any show for fallen people. I mean it's a reality show, can't get more real than this. Let them show how to work it out. If the family falls apart or becomes stronger.

Funny thought. If this had been say the Kardashians, no one would even care. Instead of calling the double standard, "we" rush in to throw gas on the fire and dance gleefully around the carnage. Are we really so sinless?

I thought that too - especially since they said on 15k “female” accounts were actually real women on that site.

[Tax-chick]

Further analysis indicates only a thousand or so women’s accounts ever communicated.

[HonkyTonkMan]

wow....sad eh? shows how desperate some of these folks really are!!

[Tax-chick]

The article I read said that most of the male accounts only had activity a couple of times. I expect that, for many of the participants, the main draw was the thrill of signing up. Then, when they weren’t flooded with messages from eager women, they largely forgot about it.
