Josh Duggar, Mark Driscoll and Joel Webbon - Another Bad Behavior Evangelical Male Round Up

These are just the strange times we're living in

Not starting with a palate cleanser today. If I have to see this, you have to see this. In this time of dangerous politics and near fascism. These dudes are coming out of the literal Evangelical weeds like some horrific Bible-spouting “Night of the Living Dead” zombies. Shriek! Eeek! Ooops! Brains!! Yum!!!

The overarching theme is lack of personal responsibility by guys in the world of high demand churches.

Josh Duggar is claiming his net worth is now the munificent sum of 22 cents in his bid to get his sentence overturned. He claims to be financially abandoned by everyone now.

Duggar looks higher than a Volkswagon bus filled with old hippies attached to several hot air balloons. 99 luft balloons.

He’s also trying to have Bobye Holt’s testimony set aside that she forbade her daughter from being in courtship with him after hearing he had molested someone. Bobye, if you remember, is the wife of Jim Holt, Jim Bob Duggar’s political best friend.

Plus he is claiming yet again something that was proven to be false during his trial — that certain others downloaded the porn, not him. It seems curious that Duggar had hired a number of convicted sex offenders at his used car lot. It’s a convenient cover story.

The second and third names are a two for one special — Mars Hill’s Mark Driscoll and Right Response Media’s Joel Webbon. Another time I have laughed out loud this morning viewing something.

Why is this one so funny. Mark Driscoll, the guy that created and then destroyed Mars Hill network by his manipulation of the NYT best sellers list, committed plagiarism, disappearance from public discourse only to pop up a year later with a new ministry after taking zero accountability for anything, followed by the skirmish at the Stronger Men Conference with Mike Lindell. Whew, are you still with me after that long run on sentence. It’s a hangover from writing for newsprint. They always want the first paragraph a long summary sentence.

It’s true. Driscoll was confronted by a woman and ran away from her when confronted with his plagiarism. Very unmanly for a guy that constantly beat his chest about manliness.

The fact that Joel Webbon, another so-called manly man pastor who is rather enmeshed in the world of rather toxic theology and is issuing a sort of weird threat. This is towards a man because that man linked to someone brave enough to outline his own inappropriate sexual relationship with a parishioner for 10 months. Webbon ran away from that! Refusing to take responsibility for it at the time or undergo any sort of church discipline. So here we are ten years later and Webbon is selling wolf tickets over this, and back in the bully pulpit just like another weak guy.

There’s only one buttercup I see here, and it’s not Webbon’s critic. It’s all the weak guys that cannot take any accountability for their own damn actions. Sickening.
