I can appreciate and understand that you had a hard time with YOUR Quiverful experience. Just as not ALL Muslims are terrorists–oh, excuse me, do you think that as well?–not ALL Quiverful families are bad. And not all Christian long-term homeschool families are patriarchal cult environments. I do not want to preach at you, as you are trying to preach at me against the ENTIRE Quiverful movement (if it can be called a movement, per se). Just know that any sympathy I feel for you is strongly edged against your biases that you share on your blog, and I only found your blog by accidentally stumbling it. Believe me, I won’t be back, but since you think I am a member of a cult, I doubt you will miss me.

Ok…there has been a play written, books written, and the media has gone nuts over this movement? But, I am asking as a result of a few years’ research, where exactly are these people? Where are the lists of all the “quiverfull” churches that supposedly exist?

[...] Quiverfull believers are generally pretty easy to spot ~ they’re the submissive ladies in denim jumpers with half a dozen or more stair-step, kids ~ all of whom are clean-cut and perfectly obedient. They do not use any form of birth control, they deliver their babies at home, they homeschool, homechurch, practice “courtship” rather than dating, ~ all with the ultimate goal of raising up a quiver full of “arrows for the war.” [...]

1. Patriarchy 2. Courtship or Betrothal instead of dating ~ 3. Sheltering of the children 4. Biblical Manhood and Womanhood
5. Being debt-free and independent of government programs/subsidies. 6. Home Church / Family-Integrated Church 7. Modesty.

Hmm, not all my values, or maybe even not at all my values.
My values include tolerance and a live and let live philosophy. Which is why I have no problem whatsoever with the “quiverfull”types having their values.

Tolerance of others is the bedrock of American life. Let’s leave the “quiverfulls” alone.
