Tough crowd!  She's wearing modern shoes with closed toes, pants, and a shirt that literally calls back to her family's ridiculous rules and there are still 35 things wrong with what she's doing.

I know I am old and I have certainly never been on TV, but why is this public????

Because if it isn’t posted on social media, it didn’t happen. That seems to be thought process for the iGen and some Millennials

She looks pretty. She's wearing a pretty dress that fits her, her hair is combed, and she's smiling a real smile. There isn't one of the other Duggar daughters who has all that going on.

Hmm, he doesn't seem to have a servant's heart.  And once again nothing personal about him at all.  How much Xanex is Jana putting in her coffee?

No servant's heart???????????

That Jeremy is a loser.  Everyone should have a servant's heart.  He needs to stop focusing on suppository preaching and get a servant's heart immediately.

It's more flowery than I would be comfortable with putting online for the world, but at least Jinger apparently loves and appreciates Jeremy for reasons other than his godliness and that God brought him to her to be her husband.

That's ahead of all her sisters and their platitudes for their husbands, yes?

This sent me to a weird Game of Thrones-ish place where I was imagining him getting a  servant and having the servant's heart cut out and brought to him. Maybe not?

LOL Maybe he could incorporate a request for a servant's heart into his suppository preaching, and someone would bring him one? :)

Jinger’s gift to Jeremy was a calligraphy piece.  More interesting than the wordy explanation and gift itself is the fact that it was done by none other than Marjorie “Run for the Hills” Jackson.

I don't know if I can explain this in writing but...

In a way, Jeremy is MORE annoying to me.  He tries so hard to look smart, educated, progressive etc.  He wraps himself in a slick package.  

I'd rather deal with Austin (just an example)  He is who he is.  He isn't such a try hard to look or sound a certain way.  He says what he thinks pretty openly.  When I meet someone like Austin, I know who they are and what they are about.  You can love them or hate them.  But you know what you are getting. 

Jeremy knows how to package himself more mainstream and projects the "right" image.  Then you see this stuff and it's like "wait, what?"  

 

Separate thought:

Jeremy is some low level untrained pastor, for a few short years, in a tiny church. He really weaseled himself in with the Big Boys of his religion. I still think he liked the last name of Duggar because it helped him.  I do believe he loves Jinger but Jeremy knew what he was doing with a Duggar even though he claimed not to.  Gimme a break.

Yep, Jeremy is the kind of neighbor that smiles and waves each morning, then drives to work and plots to take your rights away.  Give me the upfront racist/bigot/crook/xenophobe anyday.  I know where I stand with them. People like Jeremy, OTOH, are phony, devious, and because they’re uber religious, extremely self-righteous. They’re basically intolerable. I always found him to be insincere and annoying.

I totally agree.  He has a nicer exterior than the other sons-in-law, but he's an asshole nonetheless.

For all his book reading and intellectualism, I guess he missed that it's actually "og mitt liv." How embarrassing.

And now his mistake has been captured and framed that it may serve as a daily reminder for life of his own fallibility and need for humility.

Google shows results for either one, including a reference to "og mit liv" in a book by Peter Torjesen's daughter. https://books.google.com/books?id=pnc4yN8qoisC&pg=PA23&lpg=PA23&dq=og+mit+liv+peter+torjesen&source=bl&ots=ue4D934b4R&sig=IgW5Z8XEdfjECnsiQ17NL6QhgBM&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjq5cG36KbdAhXomq0KHSrXDlIQ6AEwDXoECAAQAQ#v=onepage&q=og mit liv peter torjesen&f=false

Wow, I just read that whole statement!  Oh, the horrors of social justice!  ?. I love how now racism and discrimination based on culture is abhorrent to them, when a few decades ago this was not the case.  When I was applying to fundie colleges in the 90’s, interracial relationships were prohibited.

Yeah I read it too, & it was appalling. They think intersectionality is evil, I guess? Seems like they don’t know what intersectionality is. It just means you can have more than one identity. I would think they’d like that. You know, like you can be both religiously intolerant and a racist ??

Ehhh... maybe it's because I'm an atheist, but I don't see much difference in the stuff I scrolled thru in the document he's an initial signer of than many other religious organizations. He's never claimed to be anything else than evangelical, so it's not like he's been lying or trying to fool people. Are their views extreme? Yes, they are. But given I've been marked for eternal damnation by so many, I can't get my panties in a wad when plenty of religions are homophobic, patriarchal, and damning in their own specific ways. There's millions of people who believe my grandma is in hell because she died a Later Day Saint. Or my other grandma is too since she died a Catholic. And hell, let's be honest, that's pretty much how each of them felt about the other's religion anyways so I guess they cancel each other out. I work with a pretty staunch Christian who 100% believes in birth control, but also 100% believes anyone not straight is a huge sinner. I'm an extremely liberal democrat, prochoice, anti death penalty, pro kneeling, kind of girl and I'd hazard a guess that many here find at least one if not all of my views as just plain wrong and appalling. So yeah, I can't be all shocked about Jeremy and his views when they are exactly what he's always publicly stood for. It would be different if he had claimed all of my views and then surprise! But he didn't.

@Fostersmom , I agree with you. Jeremy has never hidden what he believes. You can be a Fundamentalist Evangelical Christian and have good taste in clothes. Unless Jeremy has a crisis of faith and turns Episcopalian or Methodist, I'm going to always believe that he is anti-gay rights, anti-abortion rights, and thinks everyone who doesn't believe just like he does is a hell-bound sinner.

Oddly, the 5547 signers are listed alphabetically by first name. I only had to get to the C’s to notice there was no Chuck Vuolo.

In their defense (and I don't relish defending them), I know from visiting family overseas, you can have people begging in the street in front of a $$$ store. Sometimes you need a break too.

My granddaughter is Alyssa and I've called her Lissy since she was born. She's 10 now and I'm the only one who is allowed to call her that.  Out of all of the possible nicknames for Felicity, Lissy is my favorite. 

I'm with the rest of you who want to see more baby pictures. 

@Fostersmom, as a fellow atheist, I wish I could give your post more than one 'like'.  I don't think that thing Jeremy signed is any different than any other religious crap I've seen.

See, I truly love Husband and all. And he truly loves me. With that said, we do not love everything about each other. And after spending a 3 day weekend together, we can be sick of each other. And right now I can’t wait for him to get home from work so I can hug him. That is our life.

Actually, that might be true.  El Salvador does have several Starbuck's.  It's not much of a tourist destination, though.  I've been there 4 or 5 time and, by far, the best place to buy a souvenir is the airport.  I could see them spending time in El Salvador and Jeremy wanting to get something for them to remember their meeting but not finding anything until they got to the airport to fly home.  Virtually every Salvadoran souvenir I've got was purchased in the airport.
