That is the first time I recall you citing a psychology report. Of course if you were shown a psychology report that conflicted, you would claim it was against the Bible and therefore wrong. Divorce happens to the goodly and righteous like you, just as much as it happens to the mere people. That was proven in a recent survey. If children follow the example of their parents, why do people whose parents never divorce, get divorced. Did the devil making them do it? There are psychology reports that show that children thrive quite well in one-parent situations as well as parents in a homosexual relationship. If children follow the leads of their parents, why is I have never been on a boat yet my father sailed the world a thousand times. My father is a heterosexual and so was my mother. Why didn’t I follow their lead? Did Flip Wilson’s devil make me do it? No, God gives us the ability to make our own decisions. Yes we learn from our parents but the values and desires we hold are our own. God didn’t make us into mindless mimicking robots. I worry about what the havoc people like you do to others. My sister-in-law got pregnant as a teen in the early sixties. At the advice of her very born again parents, their minister and other members of her congregation, she gave the baby away at birth. They preached it was immoral for her to get pregnant and that society would look down on her and the boy. They claimed it was God’s will that her child go to someone who would provide the baby with a “Christian” home including married parents. As a young adult, the son found her parent's address and wrote them. They promptly threw out the letters, not even telling their daughter that her son wanted to meet her. They felt it was against God's wishes. Luckily and I wish sooner, her parents finally died. As my sister-in-law lived just a few houses away, when the boy wrote again, the new owners of her parent's house gave her the letter. Mother and son were united. It was one of the happiest days for her. To this day, she is bitter that the goodly and righteous intimated her into giving away that child. And he is bitter that the goodly and righteous intimidated his mother into putting him up to adoption. I am not starting to question your motives. |
