I’ve waited long enough and I need to let the world see her, my Margaret Clare. Hiding her away isn’t helping.
I love you, Maggie.

Just to be clear, Sinéad O’Connor celebrated abortion, got “ordained” as a “priest” in defiance of Catholic teaching, had multiple divorces, and eventually apostatized to Islam.
She was no saint. Pray for her soul.

JRR Tolkien didn’t write the Silmarillion, you simpleton. See how in some places, the One is called “Eru” and in other places “Ilúvatar?” As the stories were passed on, distinct authors left their own signatures in the language they used. No single man wrote this work.

Hey Steven, this is my child. Maggie would’ve been 3 next month. She died of the heart failure caused by the Down Syndrome you’re so callously mocking. She deserved every ounce of dignity you and the pro-aborts deny people like her every day.
Repent.

Counterpoint: Maggie made it all the way to the morning of her scheduled caesarean, then died of Down Syndrome hours beforehand. At no point would Mrs. Geekdom and I have considered abortion. We’d do it all again rather than abort. Abortion isn’t mercy or compassion. It’s murder.

Our third child, at about 10 weeks in utero, was determined to have died. His body was not present on scans and there was no more heartbeat. We scheduled a follow-up for the next day and went home to cry. While at home, I remembered that a student had graciously given me a bottle

I worried when this happened that it would be a strain on our marriage. I’ve heard how that can happen. I understand it.

Hard to compete with a message of “sin all you like, skip church regularly, still get saved.”
The unprecedented collapse of Roman Catholicism in the Americas is wildly under-reported story.
Why do so few people discuss this?
These countries were practically >98% Catholic until the 1950s, but are moving toward Protestant plurality...

Maggie died hours before her scheduled birth on May 26. No previous indications of problems except a brief miscarriage scare early on that turned out to be nothing. When she was born, it was clear she had Down Syndrome.

Correct. The statue on the right is a depiction of God and His mother, the woman by whose “fiat” he became man.

Violence in movies is play acting. No one is really getting killed, nor intentionally injured in any serious way. Sex in movies really involves at least nudity and morally grave actions of the actors.

When I saw her, my mind was in shock. I knew it was trying to put the baby in a box.
It wasn’t my daughter, it was just “a baby.”
I refused to go along. I found her nose. That’s my wife’s nose. That’s our baby.
Our baby who had died.

I’ve hidden her, afraid of negative comments about her appearance, both for DS and on account of her coloring, which seems likely to be due to the heart defect that took her life.

For a moment, I wanted to change her name to something else, I loved that name, “Margaret Clare.” I didn’t want it to go to waste.
Then it dawned on me that burying the name with her was no waste. My daughter deserved the best name I could give her. She was a person.

The 3yo keeps asking where she is. We told him she’s with Jesus. He asks all the time when we’re bringing her home. He told us she’s having lunch with Jesus and then she’ll come see us. Breaks my heart.

Once again: writers will insist they know and understand Catholicism — “that’s why I’m atheist!” — and then get paid to produce this drivel. The assumption is that Catholicism is stupid is they very thing leading them to continue in the ignorance that makes them unbelievers.

Shoulder-length hair was common for men. That’s what “short” meant. Women wore it to the waist.
Jesus had short hair because Paul said it was a shame for men to have long hair.

We decided posthumously that should be Margaret’s patron. Bl. Margaret of Castello.

I met a guy who volunteered with St. Mother Teresa’s nuns in Calcutta. He was assigned to rub down a dying patient with lotion. The man was a lost cause, it was just to give him comfort in his final hours.

Sadly, I’ve seen more or less this same conversation in Catholic circles. The truth is that premarital sex is bad because it’s disordered — and it’s primarily disordered in a social way. Marriage and family, upon which society is built, is being harmed. 1/
Lutheran pastor Paul Drees explaining why premarital sex is not a sin and why he doesn't preach against it demonstrates why the ELCA is so terrible.

We loved Margaret and we still do.

No matter a person’s worth, no matter how long they have left, no matter their chances of success, we should just love them.

Likewise, in the Lord of the Rings, Gandalf died and returned — impossibly! — but the author in his foolishness mixed up his color. It’s all very clearly fabricated by someone — call him Pseudo-Tolkien — who wanted to build on the success of the Hobbit.

So I gave her that name. I gave it to her forever. I buried her with dignity and a Christian name. Because that’s all I for to give her in life: a burial and a name. And my heart. She has it forever.
