47. My concern is that the world will change until this is acceptable.
Edited on Thu Nov-10-11 04:46 PM by Occupy_2012
I've spent a lot of time reading this stuff the last couple days. I don't think that education, or literacy, for girls is going to be sustained at all. Girls don't need to read. Their husbands are in charge of their souls going to heaven, so their husbands can read the Bible to them. They don't need to know anything else. I have read many quotes about education teaching girls to be disobedient. This is very similar to the reason for outlawing reading for black slaves.

I've also read many quotes about college being bad for boys, because it encourages them to be "unGodly" and surround themselves with "unGodly" people and ideas. Since it's also "unGodly" for women to work outside the home, men have to feed these 20 kids. How? Well, how are they doing it now? The Duggars pay no taxes because their family is a "Church." Deductions on 18 children is about $66,000 a year.

Either this will be like a Ponzi scheme that collapses under it's own weight, or more likely, a few more educated church members will employ vast numbers who will owe their lives to a "company store." As long as it's Christians doing the oppressing, it's all good.

I now understand why these people say they'd never vote for Romney. They're not kidding. In their eyes, he's going to hell. Cain and Perry are Christians, and as noted above, "What good is having a well educated scholar, if that person isn't following the Lord?" There is an invisible "vote Christian only" test, and Cain and Perry will always pass it. They don't believe a man cheating on his wife with a single woman is "adultery," it's only "adultery" if he is helping her cheat on her husband. If Cain is sleeping with single women, he's good with them.
