What happened to agreeing to disagree?
I feel so bad from looking at some of the posts.
I think everyone who has posted here seems pretty sound of mind, just pretty strong willed.
I, for one thing, am giving benefit of the doubt about the transabled (nice on that benefit of doubt, gives a lot of room and tolerance) - there is a lot I don't know and understand about how the universe works so it would be indeed arrogant of me to say this does not exist simply because someone has not covered it
Dixie, and all who made comments like this....
ah, guys, that was pretty harsh, because you do not take WHY and how a human being may choose to be in a wheelchair or want to be Deaf. I still don't fully understand either, but that is no way to discuss with another who has taken the time to explain despite the strong feelings in here.
I am utterly ashamed that we would treat others arrogantly like this when we have that same problem of being treated by others about being Deaf! We are acting just like those who prejudge peeps on color of skin, deafness, etc etc. How dare y'all be so prejudiced? I can't stand this anymore, so I must make this clear that there are other opinions like mine
So, no matter what you may believe of BIID or anything like that, compassion is always the higher road.. and scorn is the lowest road anyone can travel on
