Ep 537 | The Josh Duggar Case: Is Purity Culture to Blame?

Today we're talking about the Josh Duggar trial and how we as Christians should react when one of our own is exposed in such a way. First, we take a moment to acknowledge the disaster that occurred over the weekend in Kentucky, when tornadoes caused untold damage to people's homes. Then, we go on to discuss what happened with Josh Duggar and how his heinous behavior came to pass. We also debunk the ridiculous assertion that "purity culture" or "white evangelicalism" are to blame for Duggar's actions. Lastly, we give a reminder that reverence for children's lives is a recent development in human history and one that was only made possible through Christianity and scripture.
