Yes Pink Lotus I agree,
I know about Temple and her contributions. And there are people who have challenges that do well. But there are autistic people who do very poor inspite of efforts to help them. There are spectrums of high function and very poor function.
And scientists are trying to find out what is the cause. It may not just be a gene that is passed on but a gene that is effected because of an enviornmental condition that we have created.
I often wonder if our food preservatives or something causes some of these issues.
Im not saying all the issues. But I am for the research into the reasons. For example when they think they have discovered the gene that has to do with depression, well, everyone felt, wow, that would be great, cant wait. Wouldnt it be nice to eliminate Lou Garags disease along with other diseases like that. And the gene that is responsible for easy weight gain leading to obesity.
Your right that abortion is another topic on its own, but the partial birth abortion is harendous and many people don't even know about that, and how it happens. I happen to be very pro life and there are many people who would be more than willing to adopt a child. I don't want to see this turn into another topic but it is not much different than putting a baby girl on the side of a mountain to die. And many of these cases have nothing to do with the health of the mother because they are almost full term and sometimes full term and they do go thru the process of being born half way.
I have not suggested that we eliminate or genetically manupulate for gender, color of hair etc. But, I guess I would rather see that happen then children left to die. I have seen some of these little girls that have been adopted, they are so cute and sweet.
I am just for finding ways to improve the lives of children that grow into adults that suffer. I just don't like to see people suffer period. And I don't know about you but I wouldnt want to see everyone look the same in color etc. I like the differences in the way people look.
I myself do not stand in critisizim of various human conditions, but I am an advocate for the end to the pain and suffering that people go thru that could be changed or resolved in some ways.
