Pregnant with possibilities!


It's about the poor poor put upon Druggars and that "19 and Counting" thing on TV.

Apparently they are SO homophobic that's why he can't take his yang out of her yin for a second! Petitions to cancel and boycott the show and counter petitions to support it (because it's outrageous to call on a boycott of a show that you disagree with...Christians would never do that!) abound!

This baby factory thing is one of the strangest manifestations of Religion.

Last year during Xmas, that idiot from Duck Dynasty made headlines (and more $$$) for being a bigot. So the Dugs are just trying to cash in a little more.

Funny that these people seem to think they can control a conversation on Twitter. But I see that all the time, with the same hilarious results the AFA/Duggar family is getting. Xian groups have invested millions in their online presence, and still suck at it.

BTW, I'll watch Duck Dynasty when some of the live ducks are replaced by duck-appearing, heavily armed mini-drones that can shoot back. Damn, that would be entertaining. Shoot the wrong duck, and you BETTER duck...

3. From Wikipedia:

According to several studies, each older brother increases a man's odds of having a homosexual orientation by 28–48%. (For any lurkers who would pooh-pooh wikipedia links, there are five scientific articles cited to support this assertion at the link, one of which was published in PNAS.)



That's an awful lot of little brothers. The Duggars may have to face their homophobia directly in a few years, and I don't envy any child born into that family with anything other than a heterosexual orientation.
