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.
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.
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!
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’?
They are children of the devil and they demonstrate that proclivity every day!!!!
I figure, when the daughter comes to you and says "Help, I messed up," that's not the time to lecture them on sex. They already know that they're about to suffer the consequences for their actions. Instead, it's the time to help them mitigate the damage as much as possible - get ready for unexpected parenthood. Support and love, not condemnation.
It's interesting - the Old Testament code didn't punish premarital sex particularly strongly. It's not encouraged - it is still wrong - but the consequence is marriage. Contrast that with adultery - that carried the death penalty.
You're right...I am an Evangelical and I say she is loved by her Mother and Dad and siblings. May they all live happily ever after. God bless them and their soon to be born baby.
What would Evangelicals have said if Chelsey Clinton ended up in this situation?
I was tempted to just pass by this article.
I’m very happy I took the time to read it. Clarity - education - peace of mind.
As if nobody ever heard of a preacher’s kid.
The Libs are confused. They expect “us” to stone Bristol and demand that Sara be cast out of the ticket.
Ask any Lib why Clinton was impeached by Congress and they cannot even name the charges.
but good parents KEEP their children...they don't discard them like yesterdays trash...
I am so proud of the Palins' for standing behind their dtr..for Sarah pointing out her "good hearted" dtrs at the convention...
there is so much about Sarah Palin that makes me proud......supporting her dtr even though I am sure she is upset over the whole situation, and keeping her own little one, disabled as he is....
character folks....character...
“nunya” comes to mind
