She keeps getting pregnant and having abortions.
I thought it's a joke, she is not really sending anything back to God just as God is not really sending her anything
Or miscarrying :(
That wouldn't be her "sending it back"
To those who are having the miscarriage, it definitely can seem like it is.
Product recall
It easily could. Religious funerals often say stuff like "were giving them back to you."
Except if she means that her body is sending them back. Then the post makes a lot more sense, her blaming god for miscarriages.
But the post says she sends them to god, not god sending and taking back so she clearly doesn't blame god for miscarriage
If your body does something, then you do something.
Yes, if my body miscarries, I send the baby back to god. If I blame god for that, I wouldn't phrase it that way.
YOU wouldn't.
I love how I try to figure out the most likely intended meaning by thinking about how the one thing and the other would be most likely expressed but you win the argument by saying "YOU wouldn't." Whatever, this is the internet
I'm just saying how the post makes the most sense and am pointing out to you that how you would say something isn't necessarily how somebody trying to make a funny post would say something.
If your intention is to win an argument on the internet where the average joe decides who wins it by some dumb points than good luck with that.
I was calmly explaining how your reading makes no sense to me and you didn't engage with any point I was making. That's why I'm surprised how I'm downvoted. I'm not trying to win, I'm just expressing my surprise. But I don't really care. Unless you decide to engage with anything I said, this conversation is over.
I really don't know what you mean by interacting. You were saying that "clearly" the meaning is such and such, like there is no other way this can be interpreted. I interacted by trying to.open your mind to a different thought pattern, especially in this context. And now you end the conversation because... why?
Also you're critisizing that I was using few words to make a point, and when I elaborate the point you're switching to complain again about how I'm saying things, and aren't saying anything on topic.
Or a Texas school teacher...
She keeps getting a Texas school teacher and having abortions?
She's a teacher in Texas and her students keep getting shot
Extended explanation: I suspect the "back and forth" is likely a reference to the "poop back and forth" scene in Miranda July's 2005 film Me and You and Everyone We Know.
I remember watching that movie when it came out, that line is burned into my brain forever.
