Michael Pearl on the Duggars and maybe Bill Gothard

So basically if their other half is injured, sick, or dies they're screwed. Wtf is wrong with these fools! I keep thinking fundie land can't get worse but it gets worse.

Yes -- so what's up with Gabriel Pearl? Assuming here that he, too, drank Daddy Mike's kool-aid, and entered into one these "covenant marriages" which is supposed to end only with death.

And Mike Pearl doubles down (https://www.facebook.com/NoGreaterJoyMi ... 69959407:0):

Just as our magazine was reaching the public, Josh Duggar was exposed as a pornographer and adulterer, living—as he confessed—“a hypocritical life.†Someone in the office suggested we quickly remove the three paragraphs about the Duggar family. I said, “Absolutely not, I stand by everything I wrote, and it will stay as I wrote it.â€...

I remain proud to be a part of the Christian faith with the Duggar family. My heart aches for them and for Josh’s wife and children, and for Josh as well. Josh is a man overcome by the flesh. He needs the fear of God, followed by the grace of God. He—and the church—does not need a mixed chorus of believers and unbelievers celebrating his downfall.

Just as I stand with the righteous, I stand with the sinner, holding out the forgiveness that Christ has provided. I do not fear to be seen eating with sinners (Mark 2:16) even if it makes me a recipient of scoffing and derision, as it did Christ.

Michael perl has not heart what a liar.

Because none of the Pearls' daughters got state marriage licenses at the time of their weddings (nogreaterjoy.org/articles/the-wedding/) so they are not legally married:

So Michael Pearl thinks that having a state marriage license makes one "in league with perverts" because of gay marriage, but has no problem with sharing the notion of "Christian marriage" with an admitted child molester and adulterer like Josh Duggar? :shifty-kitty: :mouse-shock: Yeah, that makes sense. :penguin-no:
