[Faith-talk] Refutation and preeminent repudiation totheZionistsubjection.

[Kendra. Schaber]

I can say that it's also true for blind people in general, no mater the religion of any blind person. I hate it when I'm at the bus mall in Salem, Oregon and I go to ask what bus I'm next to when the people I ask totally ignores me. It also happens to my Christian friends who are also blind. Just throwing it out there to deminstrate that faith isn't the whole picture. I have better respect in the word as a Pagan than I have had as a blind person. With that said, look at it and ask the question. Is it my blindness or my religion? If it is blindness, use those laws to back you up and make a stand that way. If it's religion, then use those laws to back you up. Either way, we all have our right to be respected. In a pinch, I have had best luck whenever I have asked for respect that I would request respect in retourn.

>> Hey Ashley, I think your topic is right on.  How does blindness affect our faith? And how does blindness affect how we deal with others of differing religions? Now, that may sound strange, so read me out.  First of all, I'll deal with my second question.  There are various cultures and faiths that view blindness very negatively.  How do people overcome those obstacles? As a dog user how do I deal with a cab driver who refuses to allow my dog in his cab because he is Muslim and believes that dogs are unclean? how do we deal with issues that affect our rights and someone's freedom of religion? For instance, if a law requires that I do something that I find reprehensible because of my faith, how do I deal with that?
>> 
>> Then my first question, how does blindness affect my faith? Well, in one way it does not.  What I believe is in my heart, and I try to live out my faith every day, showing the love of Jesus to others.  And I want to be of service to others.  But what happens when people say, You can't do this or that because of your blindness.  As a Catholic, I wanted to enter a particular community of nuns.  (This was years ago and now I am married).  But they did not want to have "anyone with handicaps" in their community.  Good luck with that, when members get older and have disabilities.  Churches in the United States are not required to follow the rules of the ADA.  So what recourse does a person have? These are topics that I think are blindness-related, and certainly NFB related.  Thanks for reading.    Blessings,    Debby
