"The Bible doesn't help much either. In Leviticus 21:18 for example, some
twelve impairments - from restricted growth to ruptured testicles, are
listed as being unacceptable to God whilst in 2 Samuel 5:8 He orders that
those who are blind and lame "shall not come into the home."
I am horrified..... No wonder that many of 'us' will have nothing to do with
any religious groups if this is what they think of all disabled people.
Yours
Colin
