jlmiracle 7 #28 August 18, 2006 QuoteGod does "awesome stuff" for people all the time--they just don't normally recognize it comes from Him, or they focus so much on the bad stuff in their lives that they don't ever look at the positive. I believe in God but I also believe I am responsible for the good and bad that happens in my life. Congrats on the baby. jBe kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What did God have to do with you getting pregnant? Because Christians (most anyway) believe that the act of procreation b/t humans is not merely a biological one, one reduced to simply a joining of the gamates resulting in offspring. OTOH, Christians believe (again, most of them) that in the sacred act of the marital embrace, God is also truly present at the act of conception and imbues or endows the child with a soul - this is what makes the act a truly sacred one and, BTW, is the first basis for Christians to protest the great indignity of abortion, both to the mother and to the baby. So, while biologically her husband "got" her pregnant, her God was also actively present in the moment and blessed them with a unique, unrepeatable human being. And that, my friend is reason indeed to praise God from the rooftops! I miss Lee. And JP. And Chris. And... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mockingbird 0 #33 August 19, 2006 Gee, Micro, that was beeyoooteeful. Really. I was never blessed with conception, but I'm vicariously enjoying the sentiment. Even if conception doesn't take place, God blesses the moment in a way that only Christians feel and know.Blue skies & happy jitters ~Mockingbird "Why is there something rather than nothing?"

And it's quite sad On the contrary I'm quite deep, i just dont subscribe to your indoctrinations. As to whether or not I will die a lonely man, thats doubtful, I plan on dying before my wife for starters, just by the nature of my stupidity alone, I'll probably kill myself doing somthing dumbarse, like riding a motorbike, or skydiving (fortunately I wont be abandoning any offspring if that happens)You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS!
