Whether or not you believe it should really doesn't matter if it hurts someone. I don't think that people should hate brussel sprouts, but you know, some people DO hate them and feel revulsion for them. I don't tell them to suck it up and eat all the brussel sprouts because that's what adults do. See what I'm saying?
Thank god! I've had a terrible revulsion to brussel sprouts since I was pregnant with DS.
This has now become a completely different discussion which is quite disappointing. I hope I don't have to leave the Bump community because I've really enjoyed it so far.
This has now become a completely different discussion which is quite disappointing. I hope I don't have to leave the Bump community because I've really enjoyed it so far.
I'm honestly asking you-- why would you feel the need to leave? Disagreements are part of any online community. BMBs get into more topics than just Loss and God's Will.
I would feel the need to leave because as far as I understood it this community was about pregnancy, parenting, and things of the like. If I wanted to have a discussion about religion I'd to an online community that addresses those things. I understand that the nature of online communities can sprout disagreements but when used wisely they can bring camaraderie, offer support and encouragement. I wouldn't have an issue if the title of the discussion board was something like, "what are your thoughts on teaching your children about religion? Agree/disagree?"...something like that. This board, however, is not about that and I found the religious plug disappointing. Just my opinion.
@eajanners Well I think most of us are in agreement with you on that. Perhaps we should have let the conversation die sooner. These statistics were very helpful in keeping stress levels down for the ladies in the May 2016 BMB that I was (briefly) a part of, so it's a shame this thread had to go this way. And the Bump has been a huge support for me over the last 6 months, so don't be turned off by one glitch.
"The world is not filtered through my sensibilities"...If that were true then we wouldn't have blatant prejudice/racism/discrimination. You may want to rethink that statement.
Knowlingly offending someone...Who was knowingly offended? I'm not offended. Are you? Perhaps you should take my advice. Lol.
You aren't making sense. At all. The world is not, in fact filtered through your sensibilities, and yet we still have all these things, including the cultural and religious insensitivity you are pushing.
You also seem to be confused about how adverbs are applied. Knowingly offending doesn't correlate to being knowingly offended. I am not taking your advice because it is bad advice. But if you like it so much, feel free to lead by example.
Finally, none of this "pertains" to me in any way. It's linguistic nitpicking, but it had to be said.

Stick around! Any board will have its flairs where we need to do some self-moderation. Most of the people here didn't appreciate the pushy religious rant, regardless of their own religious beliefs. To me, this is encouraging. A true sense of camaraderie takes a bit of time and trust, even online, and sticking up for each other in a show of mutual respect is part of that. October is still new and forming. Jerks will happen from time to time, but this group has a solid core of excellent ladies. You don't have to "move along". You are welcome here. Don't let the less-than-stellar glitch chase you away.
Actually the world is filtered through my sensibility. What I believe to be true is true, hence the phrase perception is reality. Is this how the world should work? Beats me. Point of clarification: I understand the English language quite well. And you knew exactly what I meant when I posed the question: who is knowingly offended. But I suppose you're the grammar police. Is this a paid position? Do you receive fringe benefits?
Additionally, I did not post the original religious comment. I simply agree with it. I believe it to be true. It's my truth. My perception. My reality.
I'm finished. New discussion please. *drops mic*
Edited for grammar...I didn't want to be ticketed by the grammar police.

I'm a Christian and as soon as I saw the "religious plug", I rolled my eyes...hard. It's easy to tell people to trust in the Lord and that everything happens for a reason. As much as I try to live by that in my life, it's obviously hard. Sure, I believe God has a plan for our lives but I couldn't comprehend that plan when my FIL died less than a month ago at 58 years old. If I would have told my husband to just trust in the Lord and everything happens for a reason, he would not have been comforted in any way. Instead I told him to not try and find a reason and that there will be times he may blame God and that's okay, God can handle it.
The comment wasn't offensive but it was insensitive. I have not suffered from a miscarriage (yet) but I know that ladies who do, do not want people telling them that there was a "reason" they lost their baby.
I think it all comes down to knowing your crowd and being aware of how the things you say can affect other people. That isn't being "too politically correct." That's called being a decent human.

Philosophically speaking the whole "perception being reality" is a debatable concept and I'll leave that tin of worms there. I'm Christian, I find solace in my faith and what faith does for others. This being said, nothing you or PP said was *helping* anyone who has responded, despite what you may think. Telling someone "gods plan is in action" when they are suffering loss or grief is not helpful and, I would argue, not the way we should aim to be as Christians. I'm also pretty sure me saying "I find strength in my faith" will be accepted with little negative comment whereas quoting bible verses and assuring prayer is the answer? Not so much...
Another way to look at it is: if you're feeling people are preaching at you and you're reacting this way, why would you think WK a preachy post would inspire any other reaction in someone else?
And am I correct in thinking that that you're essentially arguing that because your perception is your reality that it's the only acceptable one?

1. Reality is independent of your perception. It does not require your belief to continue existing. Many PPs above have described their faith, and while I don't share those faiths, I respect their experiences. This first paragraph, on the other hand, is not about faith. It is the very definition of delusion.
2. Clearly not. My ability to decipher your writing does not speak to your ability to communicate. Your problems are syntactic, not grammatical. You consistently use words that don't fit the context, in an effort to cram an extra syllable in there. In the specific context that I pointed out, it mangled the meaning of my original argument. The correction was relevant to the conversation.
3. Nobody attributed the original religious comment to you. You are getting off track. I took issue with your attempt to silence the discussion by telling those with dissenting opinions to move along. You still haven't addressed my initial question: Why do you exclude yourself from your own advice?
4. Again, reality is not subjective to your whims. If you want a new conversation, stop trying to get the last word in, and go seek one out. It will not be provided on demand because you are now "finished".
5. Like @PeggyOlsonFTW mentioned, mic dropping yourself is the Internet equivalent of trying to start a slow clap anywhere outside of an insipid comedy starring an aging actor who is forever typecast as a manchild destined to mature and succeed over the course of one and a half agonising hours.
This is my last thought on this subject. I just found this quote and I think it accurately describes @DanniG79's misconception about perception and reality.
"We often confuse perception with reality. That is, we mistake how we understand things for the way that they really are. Our thoughts and feelings seem real to us, so we conclude that they must be true."
Perception =/= reality and thank god for that. Otherwise my schizophrenic family member's perceptions would be reality for everyone and not just himself.
ETA: Your perception is your reality, not everyone in the world's. Again, that's why people got upset with the preachiness of the prayer and God comment.
So @DarthFuriosa is now the grammar and syntax police? Do you get extra pay for that particular job duty? It appears that your job keeps you pretty busy. I actually love your posts because they provide an opportunity for me to respond with sarcasm. Thank you! As previously stated, this is all entertainment. However it appears you're upset. If you weren't bothered you wouldn't keep responding. Lol. "Are you big mad or little mad?"
As for dropping the mic @PeggyOlsonFTW: when you get a moment can you forward a copy of the MIC Dropping Handbook? I would love to review the rules.

You guys are funny. What will you say next?
What do you hope to gain from the pot-stirring? @DanniG79: if you'd like to be a member of a community that supports one another (again, all my answers have been to further the feeling of community building and awareness of the feelings of others) then it makes no sense to try to poke people and seem like you are making fun of them. It feels kind of condescending? Either way, its not necessary or productive. I know all BMB have their growing pains, but do you think its fun to create disharmony this early? Do you have the same goals as the rest of us?
@DanniG79 some people may think the same for you because you seem to need to have the last word. And there's nothing wrong with being upset. I'll go ahead and say it... the original religious post upset me and your posts upset me. I'm allowed to feel that way, but it's not going to ruin my day or anything. Clearly you are upset from the sounds of your reactions. You see, what happens when people feel threatened is they fight back with snark and immature sarcasm, which is more of an emotional reaction than logic. Why can't you just accept that people are just as entitled to their feelings and allowed to express themselves just like you. Or are you just more entitled than everyone else? I'm curious why you haven't just "moved along"?

1. Please refer to my previous post for a complete explanation of the impact of your linguistic skills, and the relevance to this argument. If you need help differentiating grammar and syntax, it can be provided by the search engine of your choice.
2. Sarcasm is defined as a sharp and often satirical or ironic utterance designed to mock or convey contempt. Your incoherent bleeting about my professional affiliation is neither ironic nor satirical, as about as sharp as mercury, and conveys absolutely nothing but a desire to deviate from the topic at hand.
3. You are clearly projecting your hurt feelings onto me. My arguments are grounded in logic and facts, while you are throwing a hissy, resorting to personal attacks, and attempting to assign emotions onto an unemotional response. You are letting this discussion have too much power over you, and aimlessly lashing out. Please take some time to get your feelings in check before resuming. All joking aside, self-care is important right now.
4. Dropping the mic yourself is acceptable only if you are a performer in possession of an actual, physical microphone. On forums, a mic drop is an expression of respect for a well-expressed opinion. That being said, going against an established convention would not have been so bad if you had not followed it up by picking the proverbial mic off the floor and shouting into it a bit more, for good measure.
I'm not offended by any comments made in this forum nor should you be offended by mine. All of this is just entertainment. If I don't like something that's said then I ignore, which is the entire point of my phrase "keep it moving". I never said others weren't entitled to their opinion. But everything doesn't have to be offensive.
"The world is not filtered through my sensibilities"...If that were true then we wouldn't have blatant prejudice/racism/discrimination. You may want to rethink that statement.
Knowlingly offending someone...Who was knowingly offended? I'm not offended. Are you? Perhaps you should take my advice. Lol.
*lurker*
So telling people that have had losses that they shouldn't feel hurt by your or other comments is "just entertainment" to you. Cool.
I'm atheist. My sister is passionately Catholic and prays a lot. We've both had losses. And a lot of hurtful comments stem from religious belief- "God has a plan", "they're in a better place", blah blah blah. Dismissive and hurtful whether or not you believe those things.
Why would I allow myself to be hurt by strangers? And my feelings are in check. I have a baby on the way and I couldn't be more excited. This little back and forth exchange did help pass some of the time until my appointment next week. Thanks!
And I always have the last word......................................

One big problem is that it's not only strangers that say these things. Chances are if someone says inconsiderate things to "strangers" on the internet, they probably say it to people IRL as well. Better they learn here than there.
*Currently thankful I do not know anyone named Danni*
But I'm sure you'll be back later to bitch about the nerve of someone at the grocery store telling you you're huge and ready to pop or something. Gawd. Usually people that bitch about others being too easily offended are the most easily offended of all.
@DanniG79 ... Because we are all HUMAN and there is nothing wrong with having feelings. It's sad that you have to have your feelings "in check". You're previous post about always having to have the last word proves your immaturity and inability to see things from other's perspective. This shows lack of compassion and FEAR of emotions. Sounds like you have a lot of growing to do and I hope that further down your spiritual journey you can find a way to allow harmony and compassion into your heart. Now, I have followed because I love a good debate, but your illogical responses and sarcasm have turned it stale. Since you will perpetuate this thread with your negativity and need to have the last word, I will leave this all to die down. However, I will leave you with this last tidbit to stew over since you seem so fearful of emotions, yet CLEARLY have let them get the best of you...
"Crying does not indicate that you are weak. Since birth, it has always been a sign that you are alive."
I'd rather feel every emotion, happiness, sadness, anger, frustration, excitement, and feel ALIVE, than have to keep them "in check".
Genuinely wishing you a healthy and happy pregnancy.
Why would I allow myself to be hurt by strangers? And my feelings are in check. I have a baby on the way and I couldn't be more excited. This little back and forth exchange did help pass some of the time until my appointment next week. Thanks!
And I always have the last word......................................
Andplusalso, that's great that you don't "allow" yourself to be hurt by strangers, but guess what? You don't get to decide what does or doesn't hurt other people. They do. Everyone is entitled to their feelings.

1. I cannot guess your intentions in allowing yourself to be hurt by the comments of strangers, but your continued outbursts suggests that this is the case.
2. People are multidimensional, regardless of their grasp on reality. Being excited about a baby has not precluded you from getting emotionally invested in a thread where strangers disagree with you.
3. An exchange implies that information has been passed reciprocally between parties. You have not provided any worthwhile information.
4. You are dissimulating. An attempt to conceal an affect by pretending to find a situation entertaining. is only effective if your anger isn't oozing through your entire argument.
5. Resorting to passive aggressive statements such as "I always have the last word" is a clear display of anger, as a rational person would not seek to intentionally embed herself deeper in a no win scenario.
Precisely why even in my own family I don't bring up religion or politics. Everyone needs the last say and a good intention post gets flamed and blown into a debate. This is what happens when diverse women get together. My advice - Roll with it, say your peace, and keep on, keeping on.

Right now I would say that you're doing a very poor job of demonstrating the love that MY Jesus preaches.
So the chances of not having a miscarriage are great stats!! Should we also post things that are comforting to anyone that suffers one? We can use this thread for good!
I am down with prayer, but its really not very aware of your audience to assume that everyone here is cool with preaching and praying. I mean, thank you and Jesus is my homeboy, but there are people from all faiths and walks of life here. Bringing God into the miscarriage discussion can veer into hurtful territory. I've known individuals that have prayed fervently to God and still lost their children. I had a period of feeling God had abandoned me after my losses. So, it can be the opposite of comforting.
I think its a good idea to be aware that there are many, diverse individuals on this birth month board.
