Another conservative “Christian” pastor is coming to child molester Josh Duggar’s defense, and attacking evolution in the process.

Duggar touched off a media and public firestorm after it came to light that he molested his little sisters while they slept when he was a teenager. He only avoided prosecution because his parents Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar covered up his crimes.

But according to creationist pastor Eric Hovind, Duggar did nothing wrong and says evolution is the reason why.

On his Facebook page, Hovind wrote that the best punishment for Duggar is to force him to do everything he had been doing before the allegations surfaced, including going back to work hating gay people at the Family Research Council.

1. I fail to see the...

...connection to evolution, even remotely. What sort of mental gymnastics does this require?

4. The argument goes something like this...

If evolution is true, then there is no morality, no right and wrong. If there is no god then how do we know the difference between good and evil?

I'm hoping that the good <cough> pastor isn't suggesting that Josh Duggar be put to death?

3. Blue links serve a purpose ...

“If evolution is true, then there is no absolute right and wrong,” Hovind said. “If evolution is true Josh should not have admitted his faults over a decade ago because what one evolved bag of molecules does to another bag of molecules just doesn’t really matter. If evolution is true there is no ultimate Judge on the bench who will hold every man, woman, and child responsible for their actions. And if evolution is true you will not give an account for every idle word you speak.”

6. Oh, I read it, more than once.

But, like Takket above in post 2, it did not help.
