That's very sad for her :(. I had a feeling something bad would happen this time, at least she is ok. Maybe they will finally believe God IS trying to tell them something.[/quote]

Shut the fuck up. People lost pregnancies inexplicably and it has nothing to do with any god sending them a message.[/quote]

My point was that [b]they thought the first miscarriage meant God was punishing them for using birth control, thus MAYBE they'll finally believe he's telling them to stop![/b] These aren't my crazy beliefs...[/quote]

This is absolutely false, and I am incensed, just really truly furious, that someone would say such a thing about them.  They NEVER said God punished them by giving them a miscarriage.  Here is what they say in their book:

"Michelle got pregnant, even though she was still taking birth control pills.  We thought that was impossible, but we were surprised to find out different!  Then, between her second and third month, Michelle miscarried.  When the doctor told us the miscarriage probably happened because she had conceived while still on the Pill, we were devastated.  [b]To us, it meant that something we had chosen to do--use the Pill--had caused the end of the pregnancy.[/b][size=24] [/size]

As conservative Christians, we believe every life is sacred, even the life of the unborn.  Due to our lack of knowledge, we had destroyed the precious life of our unborn child.  We prayed and studied the Bible and found a host of references that told us God considered children a gift, a blessing, and a reward.  Yet we had considered having another child an inconvenience during that busy time in our lives, and we had taken steps to prevent it from happening."

They blamed [i]themselves [/i]for the loss of their child, not God.  They believe God blesses people with children--He doesn't KILL innocent children to PUNISH the parents.  AND they have said time and again that they trust God to determine the size of their family.

God help me.  What a terrible thing to say.[/quote]
