Duggars, Hobby Lobby, and Bill Gothard

Thought this was interesting since it shows images from ATI booklets of some things Gothard believes about birth control.

Interesting. I've lost respect for Hobby Lobby if they go on supporting a disgusting man like Bill Gothard!

"Between her second and third month, Michelle miscarried. When the doctor told us the miscarriage probably happened because she had conceived while still on the pill, we were devastated. To us, it meant that something we had chosen to do—use the pill—had caused the end of the pregnancy. As conservative Christians, we believe every life is sacred, even the life of the unborn. Due to our lack of knowledge, we destroyed the precious life of our unborn child.â€

So, was Michelle on BC when she conceived Jubilee? Cause the pill "caused" the end of a pregnancy once, it surely must have been the BC again and not nature or God's will. This family is so hypocritical it isn't funny.

It amazes me how many old conservative Christian men are concerned about women, virginity and birth control. Gothard is far from a health care expert.

The miscarriage in question was the never-named-before-the-Jubilee debacle "Caleb". It was between Josh and the twins. The doctor, Ed Wheat, was full of shit regarding the pill causing J'chelle's miscarriage if indeed she had one.

G-d gave you Caleb back in the form of JD, you were only supposed to have a singleton but G-d saw you were going down the wrong path with this whole quiver whole thing because of Caleb's miscarriage, so he gave you twins so you'd get Caleb back and not have to worry about all of this. There are at least a million ways to interpret G-d and you guys had to go with the Gothard version :doh:

And generations of Duggars now have to suffer through their lifestyle because of Michelle's miscarriage decades ago. It drives me bonkers that they lost Jubilee too but she wasn't using birth control. Jubilee was just "The Lord giveth and The Lord taken away."

Science unfortunately had not come far enough to save a fetus Jubilee's gestational age, and I'm genuinely sorry that Jubilee did not make it.

Josie was a bit of a miracle, and a ton of new, lifesaving medical innovation, herself. The Duggars still wouldn't approve of a child wanting to study medicine, even if the reason were so that they could save more preemies like Jubilee.

Do the Duggars really think that it's better that future Jubilees die than one of their children sit next to a kid with green hair in college?
