The reality star, who is set to wed her fiancé Ben Seewald next month, ignited a storm on her Instagram account after posting a Pro Life rant after visiting the Holocaust museum during a trip to Washington, D.C. on Friday.
In the post, Duggar shared a photo taken during the Holocaust and captioned it with, "I walked through the Holocaust Museum again today... very sobering. Millions of innocents denied the most basic and fundamental of all rights--their right to life. One human destroying the life of another deemed 'less than human.' Racism, stemming from the evolutionary idea that man came from something less than human; that some people groups are 'more evolved' and others 'less evolved.' A denying that our Creator--GOD--made us human from the beginning, all of ONE BLOOD and ONE RACE, descendants of Adam."

Many of her Instagram followers criticized Duggar for her rant by commenting with, "Please walk through the holocaust museum again because that is not at all what the holocaust was about. Have some respect for the children and grandchildren of survivors."
Another follower wrote, "The fact that she just compared the genocide of hundreds of thousands to terminating a pregnancy is actually disgusting."
On Thursday, Duggar fought back by writing on her social networking account, "Our culture has accepted two huge lies. The first it that if you disagree with someone's lifestyle, you must fear or hate them. The second is that to love someone means you agree with everything they believe or do. Both are nonsense. You don't have to compromise convictions to be compassionate."
