[nagdu] Churches

[Larry D. Keeler]

Yah, I just made that point about the deaf community.  I can't help it!  My 
daughter is deaf and part of that community.  But, I also made the point 
that blind folks can and should go to any church they want to attend.  Now, 
I could write offlist and tell about folks I've known who have been denied 
positions in there churches because they couldn't get access to printed 
matterial but that is another discussion.
