It’s really Machiavellian, the way the left is going about these things in the wake of having the curtain pulled back on them during the Nazi era. Now, it’s all subterfuge, beneath the radar, say one thing and do another. Trying to collapse the hated existing order with elaborate and costly accomodation regardless of logic or consequence and turning to kind euphemisms in order to create the impression of actual support for those with physical handicap, while all the while advocating the abortion of infants with any indication of those same handicaps.

Yes, they want to destroy people with limitations, but are restrained by public opinion. That opinion is being successfully shaped, though. We’re witnessing the extension of this nihilist philosophy, from abortion to euthanasia, from euthanasia to withholding medical care from the aged, and food from the incapacitated. The day is coming when political and religious belief will be in the crosshairs as well. It certainly has been in the not-so-distant past.

Well the religious will get the crosshairs for standing up to the state and for the weak and the helpless, because the left knows that if we rely on God, then we don’t rely on them.

I remember growing up, how unusual it was that I was even schooled, because the thinking at the time was that I was better off not being educated. My mother had to fight for years just to get me admitted.

Now I’m not sure she made the right decision, but I am thankful for my education. I think I would have done better at home, but my sacrifice helped my brothers and proved that folks with disability could be integrated successfully into the classroom.

But I won’t say that it wasn’t a struggle. I think they only time I was ever HAPPY was when I was in grade 11 and 12, when I finally got taken out of the regular folks and put in the equivalent of advanced placement. They said they would consider anyone based on merit. This was a huge way out for me.

This view, however, is becoming more prevalent as time goes on. I’m seeing increased hostility towards anyone ‘rising above their station’. People are happy with the disabled folks stuck in a little box off to the corner. They are LESS happy seeing one use his God-given talents to help other people in a very visible fashion.
