Is DYSLEXIA a curse from God or is it CURABLE?
 

Regarding my (Spanish) niece. she's been 'diagnosed' as dyslexic. Again, one might think I shouldn't be worrying since she's being brought up Cathleck by agnostic parents. (my point exactly!:angry: They just want her to have the big first communion party like all her 'amigas'. Sickening.)

Anyway, since I have experience in teaching and linguistics, they've asked me to help. The first session was of course disastrous. There's no language barrier of course since I am totally fluent in Spanish. The problem is that her level of English is amoebic and is therefore unable to read my KJV1611.

I though of a translation version but have decided to abandon the project altogether. I will no longer be trying to help her, in English or Spanish or even in Sapnihs, which she seemsm to be able to raed hte best. In any case it's juts not wroth it.


HOWEVER, I'm left with a sort of dilemma.

Is her DYSLEXIA something that should/can/might be remedied?
Or did God give her this for a reason?
And if so, has she any hope of Salvation? (or even Slatavion)

All comments welcome, thank you.:jesus:

Re: Is DYSLEXIA a curse from God or is it CURABLE?
 

Well, it is obviously God who has cursed her with dylexia:

Exodus 4:11
And the LORD said unto him, Who hath made man's mouth? or who maketh the dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have not I the LORD?

God is probably punishing the parents of you niece for being agnostics since he doesn't like agnostics at all:

Revelation 3:16
So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth

Since you are a True Christian™ you could cure her with prayer:

Matthew 21:22
And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive

But perhaps refraining from doing so could serve as a lesson to her ungodly parents?

Thank you kindly my wise Scandinavian brother (Tack sa mycket - sorry that's Swedish I know).

I liked especially your third piece of advice. It also fits in better with my Christmas schedule and the skiing trip.:thumbsup:

I think it would be best if she stopped learning any of those foreign languages and learn to speak American only. Throw away anything that is not written in American and only play American DVD's

Also it has been proven that dyslexia is just an excuse for lazy people not to read.

Re: Is DYSLEXIA a curse from God or is it CURABLE?
 

It's a lifestyle choice just like homerism, Gingerism and negraism.
If they were to repent of their evil ways and turn to Jesus for their Salvation we wouldn't have to suffer their nonsense.

Re: Is DYSLEXIA a curse from God or is it CURABLE?
 

I'd recommend this option. As a True Christian, I am 100% confident that prayer works, and so when your prayers inevitably cure this girl, it will serve as an excellent demonstration of God's powers to this girl's wishy-washy parents. :thumbsup:

Re: Is DYSLEXIA a curse from God or is it CURABLE?
 

Ditto that. Prayer is the only known cure for the retardation that your niece has. It could be that Jesus is punishing her for being a garlic-eating greasy spanish dago wop bastard, but I'd have to meet her to be sure.

Perhaps Pastor. Just as God punished my own cousin with schizophrenia for being a skirt-wearing, haggis-hurling, drunken-rambling, sheep-molesting, false-Baptist, ex-Jehovah's witness, deep-fried pizza eating, Yank-hating, heather-sniffing, soccerball-sucking heretic retard too. So I suppose the reason He has done this is understandable.

Thank you Pastor, I shall forthwith take nothing more to do with the child. Except if her father is organizing the deer-hunting trip in the early new year. I shall be courteous, nothing more. Thank you and God Bless.

I didn't know your cousin was mexican. You learn something new every day.

Re: Is DYSLEXIA a curse from God or is it CURABLE?
 

No no no no noooo, Brother. He's Scottish, although I understand that both nations obviously share cultural traits. A knid of transatlantic trick or trait I suppose. And he's called Johnny.

(Why is the mad one always called Johnny?)

Re: Is DYSLEXIA a curse from God or is it CURABLE?
 

I am kinda thinking DEMONS. Have her rectum checked out by a qualified Demonologist.

Re: Is DYSLEXIA a curse from God or is it CURABLE?
 

You won't remember Pastor Yeovil, he was around in the 50s and the one who put up the notice offering help to people who couldn't read the notice.

Dyslexics are the same sort of people - hard to contact. But if contact is not made early and those demons driven out, the best you can hope for is a life of begging on the streets.

Re: Is DYSLEXIA a curse from God or is it CURABLE?
 

Personally I'm with brother Alex and believe that Dyslexia is just an excuse for being lazy.

Beat it out of her and it will be amazing how fast she can learn to read.

Re: Is DYSLEXIA a curse from God or is it CURABLE?
 

They can also do it to get attention.

PS: Is Dyslexia one of the things you can stand up in church and reveal about someone when the reverend asks "if there's anyone present who knows any reason why this couple should not be married" and such-and-such?

Re: Is DYSLEXIA a curse from God or is it CURABLE?
 

I did some searching for you and it looks like you have some affordable, do-it-yourself options!

Re: Is DYSLEXIA a curse from God or is it CURABLE?
 

I would think it would count. A True Christian should not be marrying someone who is not worthy and unwilling to abide by God.

Re: Is DYSLEXIA a curse from God or is it CURABLE?
 

My first reaction was demonic possession, similar to a dumb demon Luke 11:14

Re: Is DYSLEXIA a curse from God or is it CURABLE?
 

these comments sicken me

why were you trying to teach her using a bible? there are a lot simpler texts to use specific text books for teaching dyslexics even
I am dyslexic and i find learning new languages difficult it also took me a while to learn the ins and outs of this one
why is the child punished for the parents apparent "sins"?

Lisa H where is your proof because i have rather alot to say it is a mental condition where the brain learns and reacts differently to non-dyslexics try to know a subject before you talk about it i have done quite a lot of research on dyslexia and i have only ever heard arrogent people with no understanding of the subject matter say that it is laziness

dyslexia is incurable but it can be overcome

also Ezekiel Bathfire i am glad to inform you that i a dyslexic am going to university next year so your claim is incorrect

Re: Is DYSLEXIA a curse from God or is it CURABLE?
 

Are any of them written by God?
Let me rephrase that:
Q: Why is the child punished?
A: For the parents sins.
There ya go.
Lisa H is a woman, so it's no surprise that she was talking complete nonsense. You're right, of course it's not laziness. It's either a result of demon possession or a curse from God.

Re: Is DYSLEXIA a curse from God or is it CURABLE?
 

Perhaps I could also add:

.. .. because of God's curse (or demon possession).

if it demon possession the demon can be cast out Luke 11:14 (again!) can't you read or something?

If - as your post suggests you are "showing off" then I've heard that wearing orange glasses sometimes helps such people to behave normally:

if that doesn't help, it's probably a demon (authorised by God as a punishment) SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION FROM THE PASTORAL TEAM
