Quote

I am so thankful for the outpouring of thoughtfulness and support during the last 18 months as I have faced the greatest trials of my life. God has been so faithful and even in discipline has stood with me and encouraged me like never before. Through all of this He has given me treasures and insights I could never have imagined. It is my earnest desire that I will be able to see His blessing ministered into the lives of each of you with the time and strength He continues to give me

 

In the comments, people falling over themselves to tell him how much he has blessed them.

 

A troll appears using the same name and profile photo as Bill Gothard (but clicking on his name shows its a different page with only 2 friends). The sheeple do not realize its a troll apparently.

Darlene Bihl I am unaware of your currant trials, but I'm certain you have used the gift that God gave you to encourage all of us. After high school in 1968, I came to your seminar. I realized that every other word you said was a scripture. God spoke to me there...See More

Bill Gothard The trials I am currently undergoing are not any fault of my own. Unfortunately 30 separate women and girls have accused me of sexually molesting them over a long period of time. This is nothing but an attempt of the devil to keep me from my work. Thankfully the statute of limitations has passed, so I am legally safe from danger.

Bill Gothard I want to make a public apology. I am sorry that you think I molested thirty-odd women over the course of 35 years. It was wrong of me not to apologize for you all sooner. I pray that God works miracles in you soon. Thank you for your support.

Brian May You're getting up there in years... Haven't you ever wondered what could be worse than a millstone? I wish there was some way you could tell us when you find out

Bill Gothard I do not wonder what could be worse than a millstone. I wonder what could be worse than failing to yield your rights to the Lord. It sounds like you have a very rebellious heart. Turn to the Lord.

Brian May I'm so sorry father gothard, i somehow focused on your great reward instead of my own terrible shortcomings. I just checked a mirror and my eyes are dark as the black ink on a civil lawsuit. My repentance shall be forthcoming along with my check for membership in your indoctrination, i mean education group

Bill Gothard I am so thankful for all of the support I have received in this thread. Hundreds of people have expressed their gratitude. I have touched millions of lives and some claim an additional thirty young ladies, but nevermind about that. Thank you so much for continuing to support me through this difficult time. Donations can be made at my website, billgothard.com . Thank you.

[berga]

They could all be trolls.

[formergothardite]

Tim Jaycox is the only person of FB I have ever blocked. I can't stand him.

[Peas n carrots]

I love a good trolling.

[MatthewDuggar]

Usually I hate trolling, but if anyone deserves it it's Bill Gothard. WTF is he doing on Facebook anyway?? I would think that's a bit too worldly. Serves him right.

[alphagirlzk]

Whomever this person is, they were PM people that are in actual contact with Gothard. One lady posted on the IBLP page to warn people and said she had called Gothard to ask if it was really him LOL.

[VelociRapture]

A wild troll appeared! It used, "Sarcasm." It was super effective!

:lol:

[doggie]

I swear he could be caught having sex with a teen and his followers would praise him on how godly he was doing it.

God has blessed a pedophile what a wonderful god.

[TXGirlInAMaterialWorld]

I can't believe someone actually called him to see if those posts were from him. Doh! The IBLP crowd is not the brightest bunch...

[NotALoserLikeYou]

Tim Jaycox is the only person of FB I have ever blocked. I can't stand him.

I have seen him and his wife posting on the pro Gothard FB groups. They are like serious fangirls.

[formergothardite]

I have seen him and his wife posting on the pro Gothard FB groups. They are like serious fangirls.

It ends up that he and I have a mutual friend that, crazily enough, was never involved in ATI. Our mutual friend did post things about Gothard and ATI and Tim went crazy defending him. You can't argue with him or present facts because he just goes straight back into claiming Bill and ATI is perfect and everything else is lies by bitter ex-members. I'm actually shocked Tim has never shown up here to defend Gothard.

[CallmeChaCha]

I thought all those posters praising Gothard were trolls. Then I realized some of them are actual leg humpers :?

[16strong]

The subtlety of this Gothard troll is simply fantastic! 10/10! Not only does he have Gothard's speech patterns down perfectly, but he also manages to write in such a way that would give even Gothard pause before deleting the comments. This has made my day. :lol:

[CallmeChaCha]

Apparently, some of Billy Boy's victims were posting on there about their ordeals but someone (I doubt it's Bill himself) is going through and deleting the comments.

Eta: Gawker has screenshots of deleted comments gawker.com/duggar-homeschool-leaders-facebook-page-bombarded-with-1731689492

[Jersey girl]

Too bad fundies don't read Gawker.

Or anything that might disrupt their world view. I could ignore them if they stopped excusing child molesters.

I can't believe there are people defending this asshole.

[QuestioningQuivers]

They have all been removed.

[fundiefan]

They have all been removed.

But, saved for posterity.

They can run but they can't hide.

And, really. How the hell did he think he could make a public page and not be slammed? That's hubris to incomprehensible levels.

[Toothfairy]

Why is Bill on Facebook anyway? And his fucking followers. If Bill molested men wonder what they would say

[formergothardite]

Bill should have taken his own advice an stayed off Facebook. At one point he was warning against the evils of joining FB.

His followers are crazy and will defend him no matter what. Alfred, one of his most loyal minions, didn't see any problem with Gothard saying he wished he could stop all ATI/IBLP members from reading any information that spoke against him.

[FloraKitty35]

Trolling Gothard... :shrug: couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

[Gimme a Free RV]

Someone make my day, please, and post a picture of a Cabbage Patch Doll on his timeline.

Man. That's taking quite a page out of the FLDS's book. If any leader I followed said that, I'd be out the front door if I still had half an independent brain left by then. Scary.

[alphagirlzk]

Someone hacked Tim Jaycox as well lol

[alphagirlzk]

As well as Tim Jaycox.
