  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I stay at home with my 4 children. They are 8, 6, 4, and 5 months. The 4 year old is our only boy.
That is great to hear! :) :) :) :) :)

I am a 20 year college student and am going for a PHD or something in that league.
I still live at home/am unemployed and am the ONLY child.
I plan to be upper class/rich(raised middle class),Get Married and have 10 or more children.
I am single and will be for a while(few more years) but one day the quest to be fruitful and multiply will come.

I pray for this to happen and I know through the will of God it will!

God Bless,

Hector

girlscout ~ staying home to raise the baby's that God blesses you with is full of rewards!  If "professional" women look down on you, it's their problem, not yours.

I stay at home with my kids, and at first I was a little embarrassed to tell anyone (oh brother).  But now, I'm proud of the fact that my husband makes enough for us to manage it.  Don't sweat it girl ~ if anybody picks on you, just come to me ;)

I am not married, but I don't plan on having kids. If you want the details as to why, I just might make you beg!!

I've wanted to have children my whole life...now I'm not so sure. I love kids (I'm going to be a teacher), but now I'm really unsure if I want to have any of my own.

What is a woman's job? Whatever the individual woman wants it to be - in business, at home, at school, at church, wherevver...it's what she decides to do. Although some people tend to think otherwise, a woman's job in this world is not solely to pop out babies. It's our right to choose to do that or not.

:help:

God made woman as a companion to man.

Genisis 2:18-20

And the LORD God said, "It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him."<SUP> </SUP>Out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to Adam to see what he would call them. And whatever Adam called each living creature, that was its name.<SUP> </SUP>So Adam gave names to all cattle, to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper comparable to him.

Woman are not here just to&nbsp;give birth to&nbsp;children, but to be companions. Childbearing is a great thing that He has given to us, but not the only reason. We are man's companion and I believe that is our number one job since that's what God said He created us for. We are to help man in any way we can. I believe that child bearing and raising children along with the husband, is second compared to that. And I don't believe it's neccesary for all couples to have children.

Anyway the question.... I want children after I get married. I think that raising our future with Godly characteristics will be awesome. Challenging and frustratung at times, but that's all I really want to be. A wife and a mother.

I honestly want children SO much, but should God be willing for me to be married, I think the only way that I'll have children is for them to be unplanned (e.g., contraceptives failing or the "Menstrual" birth control not working) so that I'll be sure that it was God's will that the child(ren) be born. Reason being that I believe we're so close to the end that the generation that I'd produce would only last but so long. :cry: But that's a different topic.

Ok I have read your post and not to make you mad but I ask what did God make a woman’s job to be not what a woman that has&nbsp;no head makes herself her own head

But I will go&nbsp;a head and tell you my thoughts on this
I would most likely fall in the some people category. I believe that a man is to work
And when a women tries to take the place of a man she has health problems&nbsp;
Such as breast cancer some not God believe&nbsp;satanist I mean scientist have found out that women that do not breast feed their children have a high risk of havng breast cancer not only&nbsp;do they say it &nbsp;but also in the bible (KJV) I will quote

KJV LAM4:4 and5
Even the sea monsters draw out the breast, they give suck to their young ones: the daughter of my people [is become] cruel, like the ostriches in the wilderness
The tongue of the sucking child cleaveth to the roof of his mouth for thirst: the young children ask bread, [and] no man breaketh [it] unto them

And much more as Jesus was going to the cross he prophesy about the end times
With this KJV luk23: 28 to 30
But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep :cry: not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.
For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed [are] the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck
Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us

Quote Jesus
Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us

Who is they?


Ok here it&nbsp;is&nbsp;I found it KJV REV 6:15 to 17
And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

goon, what does that have to do with whether or not you would like to have children?

I've got 4 children here on earth, 3 in heaven. We're working on that full quiver!

God bless you for having children but one day it will be so where they the people say not to have children for you jobs sake
Women where made by God for man and to have kids that is why they have breast for a means of feeding the children and did you know that more kids you have the less chance you have of getting breast cancer
See I believe that God made breast cancer and other cancers and all disease
So why does women get it
Well from research of the doctors of the earth have found out women get it from not having kids and they say the more you have the less chance of getting cancer for more kids more breast feeding
Women were made to have kids
And men are made to work
When a women works she does what a man is commanded to do
A women is commanded to have children
And let God himself bless all women that have kids
Amen&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

I do not want you to get sick that is why I give you knowledge to not get sick
For God does loves children and he would be mad :mad: if a woman chooses money&nbsp;over kids
I love kids so much and want to make lots of soldiers for Jesus
