Octuplets and SIX other children??!!!

I'm not one to judge others without knowing them/all the facts, but this one burned me!!! I watched the announcements of the Octuplets being born, and thought; well it must have happened due to follicle stimulation because no Dr. would do invitro with 8 or more embryos. Yesterday I watched as the experts gave their opinions with the same conclusion I came to. There was no way any of them would have done invitro with that many eggs and they would turn someone away who wanted that, so they also felt it must have been egg stimulation that caused this.

Now this morning I learn that the mother, who is currently living at home with her mother, already has six children (we know nothing about the father)!!!! And here's the kicker...it WAS invitro!!!! Holy Cow!!! I get that there are crazy people out there, so I'm writing the mom off as nuts, but what the heck happened to regulating and having rules about ethics for this for the Drs.??!! What's next...cloning? Know that I have family members and friends that have been helped by fertility specialists, so I know the benefit in using one, but this guy crossed the line. Just MO.

Wait, wasn't green "mean and nasty" to you too? I'm SURE she was as "mean and nasty" to you as I have been. I'm feeling so all alone in this corner all by myself. :wink:

"he is a huge part of my life and all of my decisions and opinions are formed by what he has told me in the bible"

REALLY??

Mar 10:11And He *said to them, "Whoever divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her;Mar 10:12and if she herself divorces her husband and marries another man, she is committing adultery."

Didn't you marry a divorced man? Don't recall if you yourself are divorced. Didn't you have sex outside marriage and have a child without a husband? So you can't say ALL your decisions are based on what you're told in the Bible. :mad2:

Yes, I can say that. ALL of my decisions, since I became a believer in Christ 23 years ago, are based on what God tells me in the bible. Yes, I had my first child by my not then husband before I got married to him and No, I didn't marry a divorced man nor have I ever been married before.

What? Don't you recall me telling you that those who believe in Jesus are forgiven for their sins? So even if I sinned before knowing God, or even if I sin right now, or even in the future, God doesn't even remember them. So why do you bring up my past?

isn't god all knowing?

personally i don't care about your past either patty - what you did in your youth is just that, octo-mom however is an adult woman in her 30's......should have known better, and been a better example for her children with a support system in place such as the duggers.

ps - i LOVE farting rainbows, makes me smile:biggrin:

What is the difference between Pattygreen and God????

Who better to answer that than pattygreen herself? Patty is God's child. God is her Father and her authority. She is NOT God. She knows God very well though, because she reads his words that he left for everyone to pick up and get to know him with. She is pretty confident that her opinions on controversial issues, such as some topics discussed in Rants and Rave, are correct according to what God states about them. She is not shy or embarrassed about her relationship with God, and she isn't afraid to tell others what God has to say about any issue. On the other hand, if she were not in an area where differing opinions were being thrown out to rant and rave about them, she would be very careful to be unoffensive and loving towards others, and sometimes may not even bring up God's views on things at all. But in this forum, she has no qulams at all about doing it.

OK SERIOUSLY People !!!!

Ron's one-man campaign against ocuplets, eh. What Would Ron Do????

I am aware of that forgiveness. It's just that the way you present it, it's more of a neener-neener against those who are non-believers. How lucky you are that no matter what a witch you are to others, you are forgiven. :mad2:

Discovered by the Germans in 1904, they named it San Diego, which of course in German means a whale's vagina.

Um, does that mean that we get to call octopussy's vagina San Diego?

Green doesn't believe in Pattygreen but she does believe in the Duggars.

OH Gawd dont get me started on the Duggars , Breaders what ever the hell they are !! LMAO
