My sister brought a blog to my attention which I had not previously seen. Disabled Christianity.
I read a few posts there and found myself completely agreeing with the stranger writing the messages.
S/he was writing about how so many people in existence today are so degrading to those living with disabilities. About how some group homes are doing immoralizing acts solely for laughs for the staff involved.
Dennis Miller was recently speaking with a caller who phoned in during one of his tapings and used the R word in a demoralizing way. Thankfully he piped in that s/he should not use that word because it was offensive to people (like himself) who cared about someone with a disability.
Something I had not thought of before is the fact that people are aborting fetus' with disabilities at an alarming rate, thereby trying to rid the world of 'imperfections'.
If I allow myself to actually think about this it makes me absolutely sick. I mean, puking sick.
I would rather purge the world of the injustices which people with disabilities face on a day to day basis.
Thank GOD for the disabled population. I find strength, courage and admiration in the people dealing with a disability every.single.day.of.their.lives.
