Your posts to me have been nonsensical. What are you even talking about, "used to shut down discussion?"
Your implication was that criticizing the Duggars somehow infringes on their religious freedom. I responded thusly:
"We have our religious freedom, but we also have freedom of speech, which means we're free to criticize and opine if we see fit. "
So do you want to show me where I tried to shut down your side of the discussion? Specifically.
" I just am glad that I belong to a religion that allows mistakes (yes even crimes) and we are allowed to continue in our Church. "
Once again, who is trying to force the Duggars out of their chosen faith? How could that even be accomplished? More nonsense.
"Also glad that it precludes me from having to be judged by any congregation."
Biblically, churches are instructed to discipline members who repeatedly engage in sin. Do you know better than the Bible?
