would want to have 17.5 kids? I sure as heck wouldnt! Have you ever heard of the Duggars? They're the family with 17 kids and ANOTHER on the way New Years Day. What are your thoughts on them? And all their names begin with "J" Duggar Family WebsiteThats their website. They kinda creep me out

hahahahaha! yeah I've heard of these guys. They were on TV and MSN awhile ago... but yeah... I mean, their patriarchal figure's name is Jim Bob... It's like "you have how many?! HOLY MOTHER F@*#ING S*%T!!!!!" ^^well, normally I wouldn't combine two cuss words in one sentence, but I think my sheer creeped-out-ness and disbelief counts as a HOLY F@*#ING S*%T moment. ;D it seems like a cult ...and they might run out of J-names before they stop.

They're what you call "Quiverfull" Baptists. Basically, they believe in excessive procreation. That's all they're on this Earth for. To make babies. Over and over and over... One of my cousins' husbands has a lot of siblings. Like...15 kids in that family or something... I don't remember the exact number, but it's a frickin' lot. Anyway, if you want to have 18 kids, that's fine. That's up to you. I don't judge how many times you choose to procreate, and if you can keep havin' 'em, more power to ya. But what creeps me out is that they all have names that begin with J, and they all have to dress the same. Talk about taking away a child's personal identity.

They also believe in order to be pure, you cant kiss before marriage (WTF??) and they also believe in chaperoned dated...even if you're 20 years old.
Ma Duggar says she gave all her kids "J" names so no one would feel left out.
And dressing the same makes them look like a cult.

lol. Yeah... big families... I'm sort of used to it. I have 12 aunts and uncles on the Irish side of my family. Because my grandparents are from Ireland and SUPER Catholic. I don't know how many cousins I have haha. Too many to count. But like Erin said, they seem cult-ish. Anyway, if you can't even kiss... how do you know if you're actually compatible with that person then? I'm sorry, but if you're going to be having so many babies until it's no longer possible, then shouldn't you at least know if there's any kind of chemistry with that person?

Okay, if you're a multi-trillionaire, sure, go for it. It's not like you don't have the money... Otherwise, stick to the standard amount (more than none, less than 10), or make sure you only have twins/triplets, etcetera...
I wonder how many of those kids have tried to run away...?
And the whole no kissing/no sex before marriage is a load of crap. I, among other people, would not exist if that was the law, and thankfully it's not. I like existing, thank you very much religion.
