some people are smarter than others and some people are more skilled at tasks than others. these are givens. so, when does one's ability or intelligence become classified as a deficiency instead of a particular personality type?
even downs syndrome people have skills that are near imposable for 'normal' adults to achieve. namely love. the ability to love without conditions.
who gets to define what is below par? basing it on what is normal doesn't work because we can't be sure the masses aren't living up to their full potential. what if most of society is suffering from severe stupidity? (all jokes aside) what is the perfect standard? we can't just pray for people to be healed from downs if we are selves are lacking!?! we should be praying that everyone's mind is restored to His original potential.
saying one is not as good because the others are more common doesn't work if the common ones are still lacking...
sleep time.
interesting thought.
