Quoting Quiverfull: Educate Your Daughters, But Only So Much?

quotingquiverfullby Larry Solomon of Biblical Gender Roles – Why You Should Teach Your Daughter NOT to be Independent

Editor’s note: Larry continues on his blaming feminists for every evil. In one unquoted part he laments that to keep a wife men now to have β€˜worship women’ and be emotionally supportive. He goes on to say that black and brown people are having to come to America to take the place of all the babies these women are not having and that they are significantly changing the makeup of our culture for the worse. Yes, most of his post can be boiled down to his fear of people of different races. When you examine the reasons for Quiverfull one of the big underlying but rarely mentioned driving forces is racism. Outbreed anyone darker than you.

There is not one passage in all the Bible that encourages women’s independence from men.Β  Not one.Β  And we as Christian parents continue to do a disservice to our society when we encourage our daughter’s independence but more importantly we sin against God’s design for men and women in this world when we do this.

It is up to Christian fathers and mothers to encourage our daughters to play the part that God has given them to play.Β  When we return to doing things God’s way – we will reap the benefits not only in our families and churches but in our societies and nations as well.

Should we discourage our daughters from being educated?

This question will certainly be asked in the face of my advocating for parents not to teach their daughters to be independent of men.Β  In fact , women not being educated was one of the ways in which society for thousands of years discouraged women’s independence.

However, I don’t think as Christians we need to completely discourage our daughters from being educated.

But we should teach our daughters that their education should be channeled toward the primary directives God has for them to marry, bear children and keep their future home in order. If they are pursuing education fields that are not supportive of those goals then that may be questioned.

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.
