Used Book in Good Condition
I am just this very second reading Kathryn Joyce's masterful book Quiverfull: Inside the Christian Patriarchy Movement, so no flavor of male-supremacist horseshit surprises me right now. I have been rendered numb to this sort of fuckery. The book is kind of "The roots of redpillwomen 101".
Also, everyone should seriously read this book. It goes a long, LONG way to explain the foundations of the redpillian movement.
I haven't seen this movie, but if anyone is interested in reading more about modern conservative Christians' reaction against birth control, I'd recommend Quiverfull: Inside the Christian Patriarchy Movement. Some Christian groups are not only fighting abortion, but also birth control, including natural family planning. This website has a lot of posts written by people who have left Quiverfull and related groups, and really shows how the lifestyle can be damaging to both women and men.
Agreed, I recently read a book called Quiverfull: Inside the Christian Patriarchy Movement and it scared the hell of out me. Truly dreadful stuff.
The 4400! I miss that show. I remember being irrationally mad at NBC for ripping off the basic premise of the show with Heroes and then premiering it in the same time slot, basically syphoning off viewers and leading to the 4400's cancellation, only to tank after the first two seasons.
They introduce a major POC character early on in the season, but I can't remember if any LGTBQ characters are introduced. I completely missed the mother connection... although I think it should lessen as you get further into the series.
I'm tuning into Survivor and the The Mindy Project. I'm so behind in all of my favorite dramas!
I'm currently watching 19 Kids and Counting on Netflix. Holy Patriarchy! The Quiverfull movement is so fascinating to me. I grew up in a fundie-lite environment and watching this show is really eye opening to see how close my childhood church was to Gothard, ATI, and the rest of the fundamentalist movement.
If you watch this show, Free Jinger is a must read companion. See also Kathryn Joyce's book on the movement.
