When you strip away all the blame-shifting, restatements, contradictions, obfuscations, and misleading rhetoric from Doug Wilson’s nonsense, one point stands out: He resolved to protect Jamin Wight from paying the lawful penalty for Lewd Conduct With Minor Child Under Sixteen & Sexual Abuse of a Child Under the Age of Sixteen Years.

Watch out for liars. When a man lies in the course of a church conflict (which needs to be distinguished from being simply mistaken), you know that you are dealing with a seared conscience.

Wordsmith Doug Wilson declared Jamin Wight guilty of a crime that does not exist and he defended Jamin Wight against a criminal accusation that the state never charged because it too does not exist. Continue reading
Last point, and this is fundamental. Is Louisiana on trial for “failure to indict” or “failure to convict”? If the former, then if the SJC finds her guilty, then the requirement should then be to ensure that formal charges are brought against Steve at presbytery, a trial held, and then, as necessary, appealed. Or, as an alternative, the SJC could assume original jurisdiction, and hold a trial for Steve, starting from scratch, with Steve being given the presumption of innocence in that trial. The problem with this second option is seen in the manifest injustice of how the national leaders of the PCA stacked the study committee — as stacked as Dolly Parton after her new implants. If the SJC is stacked similarly, then Steve will just escorted through the motions of a trial, and in the aftermath, there would be no appeal.

And briefly, the last distinction we must have is the distinction between the wise and intelligent women who understood exactly what Wilkin was getting at, who have dealt with real instances of such a haunting, and who actually have had a bloviating pastor modulate into his ‘pastor voice’ when answering a simple question, and the clueless women who blindly liked Wilkin’s article on Facebook, but who are themselves pushy broads, twinkies in tight tops, or waifs with manga eyes. If there is a real problem out there, an article like this one needs to put up barriers in order to keep the wrong people from getting the wrong idea.

“A virtuous woman is a woman who protects the weak and vulnerable. A virtuous woman would bravely speak up and tell her pastor husband that writing about other women’s breasts is unseemly and revolting. That woman would be downright ‘plucky.’ Now I am in no way implying this pastor’s wife sat silently by but rather pointing out the virtue in a woman that would abide a husband who demeans women.” Continue reading
I added two subcategories to the Quotes category: Breasts & Rape. To access them, hover over the Categories button on the navigation bar above ↑, you’ll see Quotes on the dropdown menu. And when you hover over Quotes, you’ll see another dropdown menu with the subcategories Breasts, Purely Gratuitous, and Rape.
Most if not all of the quotes in Breasts overlap with Purely Gratuitous, but they deserve their own stand-alone category due to the sheer volume of citations (I have about 10 more in the queue).
Regarding the Purely Gratuitous category, it’s worth your time to thumb through those quotes. He waxes vulgar simply for the thrill of shocking his readers. Of course, the problem with this approach is that the writer must continually lower the standard of discourse to maintain his level of shock. Eventually they exhaust their vocabulary and have nothing more to say.
As for the Rape quotes, they should fall under the category Purely Gratuitous because he clearly did not believe the things he wrote, insofar as he addresses punishment for rapists. He wrote them because he wanted his followers to believe he believed them, which is important to hypocrites. Pharisees value appearance over substance every day of the week. “They say and do not” (Matt. 23:3).
But we cannot make gravity disappear just because we dislike it, and in the same way we find that our banished authority and submission comes back to us in pathological forms. This is what lies behind sexual ‘bondage and submission games,’ along with very common rape fantasies. Men dream of being rapists, and women find themselves wistfully reading novels in which someone ravishes the ‘soon to be made willing’ heroine. Those who deny they have any need for water at all will soon find themselves lusting after polluted water, but water nonetheless.
