The only people that are confused by this, have had their image of “evangelicals” spoon fed to them by the media and the Dems. When I get stupid questions from people about “evangelicals”, I ask them to define for me what exactly an “evangelical” is. Try it, it’s entertaining in a sad way.
Wrong. But what do you mean by, "it's acceptable"? Premarital sex is "acceptable"? Nope, it isn't.
Not even by conservatives.
Babies, once conceived, are always "acceptable" and should always be "accepted". And loved.
I noticed that too.
Not wrong. The entire situation is considered acceptable or not much of a big deal, while if the tables were turned, we would be shredding the liberals. Look at how Chelsea was treated on FR, and she wasn’t even pregnant.
Very, VERY well said.
That only applied, IIRC, if the female was reputed to be a virgin. Further, the male would by his actions forfeit any right to challenge the female's virginity.
The libs always defend the Hollywood out-of-wedlock births and would damn us to hell if we said it was wrong. However, NOW, according to the libs, we are supposed to be up in arms about this baby. Like usual, they want it their way or no way.
Thank you so much!!!
Beautifully stated!
My pastor’s daughter, a fine young woman, suddenly had to re-schedule her wedding day some weeks earlier than originally planned, away back in the 1960s. The congregation took it in stride, no anger, no recriminations, just acceptance of our common humanity, all of us sinners, some of us forgiven and forgiving sinners.
I take extreme exception to that....I argued on FR just recently that, as an adult campaigning on the trail for her parents, Chelsea should be fair game for questions. I was raked over the coals for it. The people on this forum and conservatives in general have veen very consistent in their message to a fault on this.
For some reason, everything I felt about her daughter getting pregnant out of wedlock disappeared when I saw what the Libs and MSM were doing to her.
Then my maternal instinct kicked in and I am now fiercely protective of her.
weird, i know.
;)
Let’s just welcome another wonderful baby into the world, and this one is lucky enough to have Sarah Palin as grandmother!
Go back 10 or 12 yrs.
The libs are acting about the preganancy the way they claim fundamentalists to be about premartal sex...harsh and judgemental.
Now tell me what’s worse: getting pregnant at 17 by your fiance, or an elderly, chaste, pious so-called Christian woman who uses her tongue to gossip, sow dissention, turn people against each other, while legalistically nitpicking and criticizing everything and everyone around them as ‘sin’ and ‘impurity’?
So do you think that if Chelsea Clinton had gotten pregnant as an unmarried teenager, Freepers would be defending her?
They are children of the devil and they demonstrate that proclivity every day!!!!
Most likely no one would ever know if Chelsea had gotten pregnant as an unmarried teenager because, most likely, she wouldn’t have been that way for long.
They would not condone the behavior but they would not try to destroy her...it’s not in the general makeup to try to destroy someone who loves babies.
