Better call Saul is not a legal series, it supersedes that, it’s just pure football in its purest form
It’s like watching Messi play seeing Saul Goodman do his thing, generational stuff
This is the beauty of the Imago Dei.
Ableism and eugenics value people for their function; Christian theology values them for their existence because it recognizes that worth is grounded in being not function. Every single life is purposeful and possesses inherent dignity.
Christian discourse on this topic should focus on fostering more inclusive societies and communities that improve the quality of life for both disabled individuals and their caregivers.
May God give us understanding.
A hill that I will die on is that there is no true humanity without Christianity.
When push comes to shove, people without Christ will do the abominable and they won’t think it twice.
Is it A LOT of work to care for a person with DS? Yes
Is that good enough reason to end a human life? No
What then should we do? Build churches, families and communities that share the burden of care and make life more bearable for those facing significant challenges.
The Christian answer has never been to eliminate the vulnerable because caring for them is costly. The Christian answer has been to bear one another’s burdens.
When Christians remained behind to care for the sick during plagues, they were not choosing the easiest path. They were choosing love.
So what we need is not fewer people who require care, but stronger communities willing to share the burden of care.
It means something to be a Christian.
Advocating for the killing of unborn babies because they may have a disorder is ungodly, demonic and a clear rebellion against God.
There is simply no middle ground here. Life is precious to God, and so also must it be to His people.
“Before I formed you, I knew you”— God
This is also very true for a congenitally deformed baby.
What is wrong with us?!
Or when you quote texts like this, it should only apply to healthy babies?
Goodness me!
Once again, we need to have a serious conversation on Christian sexual/reproductive ethics in this country.
It’s also funny how you didn’t say “killing” but “terminating”, nothing eases the conscience more than a change in terminology. lol.
It is in the nature of sin to twist the order of love and the order of being.
The same cultures that have a high tolerance for abortions are also the same cultures that have zero tolerance for animal cruelty.
The problem is not that they hate life. Rather they hate humanity.
