When You Come From Bible Belt Where Cousins Marry Cousins Moore & Supporters No Surprise.

If you look at all the sexual and family practices in the Old Testament the situation in Alabama and other places in the Bible Belt we should not be shocked by the Moore scandal. It is NOT a scandal there. In the Old Testament women were just incubators. Where the seed came from was no consequence.

The males of the Biblical era had relationships with concubines, relatives, other peoples wives, daughters, and whatever was available. So all the true believers are doing is following the scripture of the time. Egyptian pharoahs had families by their own daughters. So incest was was just a part of those times.

Women who would be of illegal age today were married of even before puberty. Of course in our time such relationships are not thinkable or weren't before now. The fact that Moore is defended for his actions and RW defenses find sex with children OK? is very troubling. Trump cannot really call out Moore because he is as guilty of many of the same things Moore is. The truth is that the Alabama GOP is absolutely OK with Moore. Look at what they did to Siegleman.

Most GOPPERS are ok with Moore in private. Their tears are crocodile tears. Even the GOP leadership really does support him. They, as we all know are desperate to keep power no matter the cost to the country. Their involvement in Russiagate has already proved that fact.
