American society ...Prayers for wisdom for everyone. American society is very abusive in today's world. There is only one sin that God will not forgive when someone repents & that is the sin of blasphemy of the holy spirit. Which is calling God & his holy spirit evil because he can't be evil because he is holy. If we want forgiveness God tells us in his word to being forgiving. I forgave my birth mom for mistreating me because I was a part of my birth father who beat her. My son & spouse would tell you that I tried to have a relationship with her before she passed away but she still pushed me away. I am thankful for the handful of memories that I have with her that are good. Blessings. TLC had an opportunity to teach forgiveness & how to deal with a negative maturely & blew it by rejecting when they wouldn't want to be rejected if they made a mistake no matter how negative it was. <br />Matthew 12:31 (KJV)<br /><br />Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.<br /><br />Matthew 6:14 (KJV)<br /><br />For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:<br /><br /><br />James 2:10 (KJV)<br /><br />For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.<br /><br /><br />Romans 3:23 (KJV)<br /><br />For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;<br /><br />We all have our faults. which can help us all be more tolerant of each other & more forgiving. <br />God in today's world would be arrested. Why? Bible scholars believe that the mother of Mary was 14 years old. Yes, 14. Not a typo. In the Jewish world people were called adults at 13. That is why there is the Bar Mitzvah. A young boy has a ceremony into manhood. The Royal family has married their own relatives for 1000's of years & are loved & adored world wide. Even Prince William & Kate are cousins. Prince Charles & Diana were cousins. Prince Charles & Camilla are cousins. Many boys in history have bothered their sisters when curious about girls. An episode of Dr. Quin Medicine Woman in the 1990's had the young male son of Dr. Quin spy on his sister while she dressed out of curiosity. They didn't label him as a bad kid. She talked to him about it & taught him not to do it. Today we are too busy demonizing people to seek solutions to challenges. I am thankful that the Duggar family has been working on their challenges for many years. Prayers for healing for the Duggar family. No offense intended. Hoping to show support & encouragement. We all are God's children. He loves us all even when we disappoint him. God's ways can heal society & heal us all no matter how many mistakes we have made or how bad they were. I agree with the Duggars that mistakes before 18 should have stayed private.

It doesn't matter what the rest of the world thinks Josh is still their Son, Husband, Father, and Brother so obviously is going to be in their FAMILY photos..

Josh and Anna and his children need time to heal together. I've never heard of somebody whose healing was improved by the pressure of the public eye. <br />2. At this point, the conversation is still about what Josh did and if he is allowed to address it on the show he will be profiting off of it. Allowing that sends a message that if you do what he did you will be rewarded in some way for it. <br />3. Many people seem to be concerned that he will always be punished for his actions...not having a TV show is NOT a punishment!!! The majority of the people in this world don't have TV shows and we're clearly all fine.<br />4. The Duggars chose this, the fame, the publicity, the TV show. No one forced them to sign on again. If they wanted privacy, they could have chosen it. When you invite the public in, everyone will have a different opinion and some of those opinions will not be positive. <br /><br />I hope they will all heal from this, I hope they will not be afraid to step away from the spotlight if they need to, and that all the minor children as well as Josh's victims will not feel exploited by all of this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-84891465451885984262016-07-20T11:46:37.124-05:002016-07-20T11:46:37.124-05:00...but don't the Duggars use those same tabloi......but don't the Duggars use those same tabloids to promote themselves?

People don't need to watch him struggle to explain himself for entertainment (and TLC doesn't need to profit off of it). Not to mention, his victims, his wife, even his children when they get older, might not want to have their pain and private life indirectly exposed like that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-89217067143752925212016-07-20T11:39:31.722-05:002016-07-20T11:39:31.722-05:00Thank you!

Yes, it will follow him for the rest of his life. It will also follow the other people he hurt for the rest of their lives. They didn't get a choice in that. But he made his choice and the fact that this will follow him forever is called a consequence of his actions. I certainly understand why people forgive him, but you can forgive someone without having to feel sorry about the consequences of their actions.

Perhaps many families in their circle are dealing with similar issues ( JimBob seemed to imply that in one of his interviews), in which case they need to consider why that is and take real steps towards solving those problems. But personally I think having cameras follow around people who are dealing with those issues is incredibly exploitative.

To be honest, people who defend them mindlessly always seem to forget that members of the Duggar family did "cast the first stone". Liking a family or a show doesn't mean you have to instantly accept everything they do! And I agree with the other anon, at the end of the day, TLC is a business and their interest in the Duggars depends on what is profitable for them.

Now considering I've seen no such public statements from the Duggar family that they wish for Joshua to remain off camera. I'm going to go ahead and assume they practice what they preach.<br /> <br />As for their presence on television, again, unless you know otherwise, it is the choice of the family. What the family does and does not deserve is up to the parents. Now I believe that we ought to respect with wishes of Mr. and Mrs. Duggar in their decision making to raise up their children in the environment they believe is most suitable to them.<br /><br />God Bless you.Texashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13049933726524892489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-54737997667031244612016-07-19T08:53:44.662-05:002016-07-19T08:53:44.662-05:00It stands to reason that the best interests of Jos...It stands to reason that the best interests of Josh's children would best served if he and Anna avoided any kind of publicity at all. If they are determined to remain married and try to salvage a life together, it should not be fodder for the tabloids. Their kids deserve better than that and it doesn't matter if the fans want to see his face. By the way, I may be a sinner, but I have never even entertained the idea of committing the heinous acts that Josh has. For the sake of his family, I sincerely hope he is addressing his serious psychological issues with professional help.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
