I just thought even though we are "Evil, Free-thinking, God-Hating, liberals/democrats" I would like to show true compassion.

8. They are continued victims of that cult which treats them like broodmares.

They are taught that they are responsible for original sin, and as such, all sin. They are taught that they cannot make rational decisions on their own. And that their only worth and salvation is through childbirth and a righteous man to keep them in line.

The victimization goes FAR beyond the assault by Josh.

9. Indeed.

And at the risk of being flamed, I must say that Jessa Duggar seems like a very nice young woman (even though I dislike her politics).

14. Here's to the victims.

Like millions of females, they are at the mercy of men who use stupid supernatural mythology to stomp them down.
