  1. I like you guys, I really do. I defend you all the time. But Jim Bob's comment about John David being expendable because he doesn't have a girlfriend, hit the nail on the head on why people like me are leaving the church. Single, never married and childless (especially over 35, 45 or 55) are completely ignored by the church. We are invisible and have no worth or value. We try so hard to do what we believe God asks us to do, just like you do with your spouses and children, but to no avail, at least in the family-centered church world. Divorced people and drug addicts have groups and people have empathy for them. But not us. We are lepers in the church world. Please be careful about comments like this. They hurt. Perhaps some consideration about people with lives that are very different from your traditional family is at hand.
