With the announcement of Jim-Bob and Michelle Duggar's 19th baby on the way (19th!!), most sane people are wondering why they have bothered to have so many children. Easy answer: the Quiverfull Movement.
It's based around the idea that the more children you have, the more members of the Quiverfull movement there are. According to Psalm 127:5 "Happy is the man who hath his quiver full of them...", and by 'them' the Bible means children. In the Quiverfull Movement's eyes you are only really fulfilled as a person when you have had a ridiculous amount of children. Obviously not a religious choice for everyone, Jim-Bob and Michelle Duggar are sure sticking with it.
