Creepy, yes, but she accepts it. That's her choice in a free country, and if that's fine with her, it's fine with me. No one is forcing you or I to live that way. I would have a problem with it if she were being forced into this, but there is no indication that she is, which is why I can't sit here and be overly critical of her. I would be very hypocritical if I were overly critical/hateful/judgemental in the manner that many here have been because many people do not approve of my being an atheist. However, they still respect that I choose to live my life free of religion. I'm only a biting dog when someone steps on my tail, y'know? Part of being in a free country is accepting that a lot of people are going to make different choices and have different beliefs. I don't feel that those beliefs (mine or anyone's) should be catered to for fear of offending another person, or shoved down anyone's throat, but I do strongly feel that we should live and let live. These people aren't hurting anyone. They are being true to themselves, and I honestly can't fault them for that.

Mrs. Duggar doesn't need anyone to save or enlighten her.

I've never had the expensive stuff, but trust me, it's tasty, even if it's not the higher end version.

I don't get the hate thing either, to be honest. Apparently, a lot of folks posting here are perfect.

I doubt that most people would be able to buy enough expensive caviar to make much of a difference to shelters during times like these. At least the homeless get a treat for Christmas most of us will never get. I'm sure that's not the only food they'll be eating.

That is, of course, if they pick that sort of fight. ;)

Good question, ted. They will probably keep going and just take it all as God's will or something like that. But who knows?

As for a war against heathens, all I can say about that is that they'd best prepare for a heck of a fight. :)

But do they get vodka to go with it?

True, true, Max Power. I was just going by what I know for a fact. ;)

SparkS - Precisely. As an American living outside of America, it surprises me how much spark and individualism we have lost even since I was a kid. You tend to see it more when you leave the country. This generation growing up is soft and sheep-like, but I will shush before I start chasing kids off my lawn. ;)

Besides, didn't someone write a check on the side of a cow once, or is that just my imagination?

liphttam1- In the US, it's a check, but in the UK, it's a cheque.

Just to add... I was responding to violet on that post. I'm not saying that I'm above judging them or anyone else, because you are right. We all judge. But ultimately, if they are fine with that line of thinking and don't want to look at women as equals, that is no one else's problem until something illegal occurs.

You know, it's not as thought Momma Duggar is a victim. They have a messed up religion that encourages women to be breeding animals, and yeah, that's not something I am in line with, but she is a grown up that can question her beliefs if she chooses to do so. I don't care what they do as long as they aren't running around acting like the Phelps family, or being abused. I know I don't appreciate when people get in my face about my lack of religion, so if she wants to believe that she is meant to submit to her man and have a litter, then who really cares?

I knew sheep were stupid, but I just realized how stupid. That's hilarious!

I always think it's great when someone does even the dumbest things to stick it to The Man.

Greggggg, their own child is more important to them than adopting, and that is their business. No one is obligated to adopt or give birth. I've stated that I have no desire to ever give birth. I find the whole concept creepy, even though I like kids. That doesn't mean I have to adopt or that I should feel some moral obligation to do so just because I can or because I have chosen not to have any of my own. It's kind of the same idea. I kind of see the point you are making and I am not picking on you because you've been nicer than most people here, but really, in the end, it's no one's business but their own.

Honestly, I find it all very amusing because it does my head in to think that anyone would want to do this even once, and they're already talking about having another one. But it's certainly not my place, or anyone's to judge. At least they take care of the kids and aren't on welfare.

I agree, SenorMysterioso. It's not as though they are the entire reason for overpopulation, and quite frankly, it's her uterus to do with as she wishes.
