I interpreted it exactly how Fozzie interpreted it and we aren’t the only two who do.

Years ago I knew a woman who had been date raped, and become pregnant as a result. This woman had had a really tough time in her life. She had decided to carry the child and give it up for adoption.

Later, she was talking to me, and saying that she was thinking maybe she should keep the child, maybe God had sent her this child. (Her husband had killed himself a few years before the incident.)

I don’t remember what I said (it was the kind of situation in which you are very careful what you say), but I was thinking that no, God would never have rape as a part of his plan. Not ever. This wasn’t His doing.

I don’t remember what she decided.
