I have no doubt that God creates us, but there is a verse in the Bible that states that if a woman becomes pregnant out of wedlock, she should get married to the father. That almost makes it sound like the pregnancy was an "accident". Does that make any sense? What do you think?

I have a Freudian belief system. I believe that nothing is truly by accident. All births whether in or out of wedlock are blessings from the God and Goddess.

Yes, Psalm 127:4-5

As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.
Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.

Psalms 127:3 says:
Look! Sons are an inheritance from Jehovah; the fruitage of the belly is a reward.

God gives us the ability to have children, if they had sex, we know what happens.
Psalms says I remember reading it. That Children are a blessing. The angels cannot reproduce.
Only humans so in that sense it is a gift.

* Psalm 127:3-5, NEB. "Sons are a GIFT from the Lord and children a reward from him. Like arrows in the hand of a fighting man are the sons of a man's youth. Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them; such men shall not be put to shame when they confront their enemies in court."

* The message Bible translation of Psalm 127:3 says, "Don't you see that children are God's BEST gift? the fruit of the womb His generous legacy?"

Matthew 18:5 says, "Whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receives Me." The word 'receive' that is used here is the Greek word, 'dechomal' which means to 'accept a gift deliberately and readily; to receive heartily; reaching out eagerly to receive something; looking for; waiting with earnest expectation.' Check also Luke 9:48. It is different from when the word 'lambano' is used which means to receive without necessarily a favorable reception. Matthew 18: 5 tells us that when we receive a little child, we are actually receiving Jesus Himself. To welcome a baby is to welcome Jesus! Should we receive Jesus with a half-hearted attitude?

I don't follow the Bible.

I believe the children are gifts of Love and gifts of Life that need to be cared for and cherished.

An accident between two people, God knew it was coming. The 'accident' might even be his way of hooking people up.
