Women's strange choice about her body.....

This is not an abortion thread. The article quotes (and gives the source Jeffrey) Jillian Michael's of the Biggest Loser. She was quoted in Women's Health magazine as saying, "I'm going to adopt. I can't handle doing that to my body," Michaels told the magazine. "Also, when you rescue something, it's like rescuing a part of yourself."

So what do you all think about this? Is she crazy for saying this? Does she have a good point about not wanting to do that to her body? Is her point of view really weird? What say ye all?

THIS IS THE SOURCE I WAS QUOTING FROM....No Plagiarism!

I didn't steal it cause I changed some of the wording to make it my own.

Re: Debate about a Women's body being her choice

I guess I'm not understanding the dilemma--if someone wants to adopt a child instead of going through pregnancy or childbirth, I understand that.

It's definitely a woman's choice, whether she has children or not. How could it be anyone else's choice?

According to 1 timothy 2:15 a woman can't be saved unless she bears children and if it's in the Bible then you cabn't get around it. It's a salvation issue. God commanded couples to have children in Genesis.

I hope you're being TIC, because obviously there are some women who CAN'T have children, and a woman's salvation is NOT based on enduring childbirth.

The context of the word "saved" in that verse means that she will be protected/delivered.

to save, that is, deliver or protect (literally or figuratively): - heal, preserve, save (self), do well, be (make) whole

I had a cousin who had 19 children. She was really saved. Yes, I was being TIC. But there are doctrines based on one scripture I'm afraid.

Not that it could be anyone elses choice but more to look at the thought of not having a child for body issues.
