Duggar Family Pastor on Josh's Molestation Scandal: God 'Can Forgive Everything'

[beam me up scottie]

32. omg, that poor little girl.

The way she suffered, I can't bear to imagine what she must have been thinking.

And to do this to a deaf child:

Things weren’t much better for Immanuel. When Immanuel began wetting the bed after a few months in the house, he says, the Williamses accused him of doing so on purpose and forced him to take immediate cold showers outside under the hose. He testified in court that he too was sent to sleep in the bathroom. Immanuel was also punished if he didn’t feel the vibrations of one of the Williamses stomping their feet on the floor to get his attention. Often, he was switched on the soles of his feet, and sometimes Carri ran the plastic switch up and down his face—something she said was a joke. Once, during a family celebration, Larry hit him hard on the top of his head, causing bleeding that ran down his face. Afterward he was put outside and the rest of the family was told not to sign with him. At church, a deaf parishioner, Brian Kruick, sometimes tried to talk to Immanuel alone, to see how the boy was doing, but every time he came close, Larry or Carri would take the boy away.

Monsters.

I adopted a feral cat who accepted and nursed an abused kitten the neighbor kids brought me.

No wonder I prefer the company of animals.
