It’s not happening in some Central Asian country, either. New Hampshire is high tea territory:
Former Trinity Baptist Church Pastor Charles Phelps is on the prosecution’s list of witnesses. Anderson told police that Phelps arranged for her to move to Colorado and forced her to write a letter of apology she had to read to the fundamentalist congregation.
She then was told to move into a room in the Phelpses’ home until she was to leave for Colorado, which Anderson said happened within days.
Anderson was home-schooled in Colorado, and gave birth to the baby there, the New Hampshire Union Leader reported. She gave the child up for adoption, the newspaper said.
That’s pretty much the definition of patriarchy: when you get raped, God wants to (1) force you to have the rapist’s baby (2) hear you say you’re sorry for being such a slut. Obey your Heaven-inspired father! See how that works?
Someone please tell me again how me and Markos are being hyperbolic when we refer to culture warriors as “American Taliban.”
