Sometimes it’s hard to believe that a culture can be this blind to its own faults and problems, and yet here we are at another installment of “Heads in the Sand: Southern Baptist Edition.”
Supporters of Josh Duggar and his parents continue to abound, so I thought it might be useful to talk about why it is we keep talking about the scandal they all wish we’d shut up about already. Here are three reasons why we aren’t shutting up about what he or his parents did.
