No Longer Quivering
by Tim Bayly from Bayly Blog – The Good Father: Teaching Your Child to Submit to Authority
Editor’s note: Here Bayly discusses Patriarchal Homeschoolers and rebellion. Surprisingly enough the unquoted part of this piece has Bayly admitting that the real problem with rebellion starts with the fathers being too selfish and self-involved. But this part we’re quoting is Quiverfull martyrbating at its finest.
The masses have the privilege of watching their paganism being promoted and practiced everywhere. Secularism is simply the label the Western world applies to the resurrection of pagan morals and pagan worship. Since secularism has now normalized even gross sexual perversions and has given us a nation awash in the shed blood of unborn babies, the masses have every reason to be complacent. Lust and bloodshed are the opioids of the masses, and the media, entertainment industry, and public educators do a good job spreading this immorality and maintaining its temples. If the secularist wants to hear his thoughts expressed publicly, it’s as easy as going to class, turning on the TV, or waking his laptop.
Patriarchal homeschoolers, though, are a marginalized people group whose children are integral to their freedom of religion and freedom of speech. Christians can’t depend upon our culture to communicate our faith and convictions, so we propagate our faith and speak our minds through our children.
If our teaching our children is our freedom of speech, it must not be obstructed by the civil magistrate. Similarly, if raising up a godly seed is our religious worship, instructing our children in godliness is our freedom of religion.
QUOTING QUIVERFULL is a regular feature of NLQ – we present the actual words of noted Quiverfull leaders, cultural enforcers and those that seek to keep women submitted to men and ask our readers: What do you think? Agree? Disagree? This is the place to state your opinion. Please, let’s keep it respectful – but at the same time, we encourage readers to examine the ideas of Quiverfull and Spiritual Abuse honestly and thoughtfully.
