Nobody is born with dyslexia, dear. My own children are more than usually bright, but I have yet to give birth to one who could read and write. This is something they learn to do, under my tuition, at the age of about 3.
Being unable to read and write is simply a matter of laziness on the part of the child or, occasionally, inadequate parenting.
Proverbs 26:10-16 may clarify matters here. If you have trouble with it, you can ask an adult to read it to you.

With I do respect, this argument seems to be abit inappropriate. Down syndrome is a chromosomal disorder caused by an extra autosome [non-sex related chromosome]. If any of you are wondering, Chromosomes are small protein fibres in the nucleus (brain) of a cell that contains DNA. They act sort of like folders for God's instructions, how to reproduce, how to survive and how to behave. There are countless queries and studies that proves that Down syndrome is not a lifestyle choice. Furthermore, your proposal to punish the sufferers of Down syndrome and their guardians to 'labour camps' is comparable to the Nazi reigme's policy against Semites, by now I am certain you are all acquainted with. Below are links to Down syndrome.

I don't like them as they make me really uncomfortable - I was buying a MacDonalds the other day and I was queuing up and they were a load of them there, I don't think they should be out when normal people are around. Seperating them would be a good thing.
We had a mong at school and we used to beat him up.
You need to listen to the elders on the forum - they know what they are talking about

Hello Jeremiah,
Welcome to this forum. On this forum we have an introduction (sub)forum. The Christians here appreciate it if you post your introduction there before you start roaming around the forum. They like to know who is posting here. In the description of said (sub)forum there are some simple pointers, please keep those in mind!
As for credited sources, as far as I know, here you can only use the Bible as such.
Kind regards,
Roland
Jeremiah 6:21 Therefore thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will lay stumblingblocks before this people, and the fathers and the sons together shall fall upon them; the neighbour and his friend shall perish.
Best wishes for the people in Ukraine.

Well, I don't think any of us were wondering, but the idea of God needing folders to keep His instructions in sounds dangerously like heresy to me.

Dear Jeremiah,
I am also weeping because while we know the Bible and the science, your education is still deficient in both. That is about to change right now, as we start to assess your polite but misleading post.
No-one suspects that there would not be something wrong with the chromosomes of a retard representing the Down type. However, what does have to do with the Down syndrome not being a choice? God has Created everything (Genesis 1:1) and He can meddle with the chromosomes at the moment of fertilization easily (Revelation 19:6) if He wishes and, apparently, He often does. It is well-known that chromosome 21 is present in triplicate = trisomy) in the cells of Down syndrome patients. Alternatively, only part of the long arm of chromosome 21 might be translocated to another chromosome thus giving the appearance of a normal karyotype that still contains extra material from chromosome 21.
Incidentally, chromosomes are not "small protein fibres in the nucleus (brain) of a cell". Chromosomes consist of deoxyribonucleic acid that is twisted around some histone proteins (that do not form fibers). Please, try to get your genetics straight.
Now that that's been taken care of, we come to the "lifestyle choice part". There are many choices by sinners that lead i) to the birth of a retarded offspring and ii) prevent Jesus from healing him.
Choice 1: Sinful ancestors. God punishes not only the sinners but their progeny up to 4-10 generations. Thus it is clear the the family of a Down child committed some grievous sins causing this disorder. Proof:
Exodus 34:7
Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth generation.
Deuteronomy 23:2
A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the LORD.
Thus, a choice, perhaps not of the person with the trisomy but still a choice, a choice of a sinful, revolting lifestyle somewhere along the bloodline that led to the afflicted child.
Choice 2: To keep on displaying the retard phenotype and ignoring the cure that would be readily available. Prayer can cure anything, if the person asking for the cure is a True Believer™. I, for instance, have been down with the flue quite a few times, but I've always recovered after adequate prayer. Proof:
Luke 17:6
And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you.
It is heartbreaking that the people close to the Down child refuse to help it with prayer. In case they have prayed, the lack of success shows without any doubt that they were not Real Christians™. Proof:
John 9:31
Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.
Those are the choices. A choice of a sinful lifestyle followed by choices to keep up this lifestyle even if it could be cured immediately. Only by exposing these sorry individuals to the Bible and God's Word can we help them! Still, whatever the outcome, it is all for God's Glory, it is always Good as it is the Will of Jesus! Proof:
Psalms 59:8
But thou, O LORD, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen in derision.

Dear Sister, let us give this sinner the benefit of doubt, as there is an actual folder of information on how to "reproduce, survive, and behave"!
I do not have very high hopes for this person, but I'm still praying for him despite his feeble fallacies, such as the Hitler Card.
Yours in Christ,

Thank you for the timely correction, Brother Professor Dr White, Sir. Just the one, single, perfect "folder", of course. And very definitely NOT inside the cels of the human body.

Yours is truly an inspiring story, much like one I reported on some months ago. The original can be found here.
It is high time America makes a stand and stops enabling these leeches on society. Boycott death metal bands like The Syndrome of a Down and The Kid Rock that glamorize this laziness.

Not trying to sound rude, but have you ever picked up a biology or genetics textbook? Even HIGH SCHOOL textbooks have this:
"The most common form of Down syndrome is known as trisomy 21, a condition where individuals have 47 chromosomes in each cell instead of 46. Trisomy 21 is caused by an error in cell division called nondisjunction, which leaves a sperm or egg cell with an extra copy of chromosome 21 before or at conception."
Do try your best to justify yourself, using ANY MEANS, not just your Bible or Torah

Of course that is the proximate reason for this form of sin-derived disease. That is common knowledge. Why would it be a problem for an omnipotent God (Revelation 19:6) to arrange the genome of an embryo in that manner to punish it from the sins committed in its bloodline? There is sin at the bottom of all this, as sin is passed over many generations. God did warn us about that!
Exodus 20:5
Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
The ancestors made a choice to sin and, thus, they chose to produce a child affected by that sin. God's rules are simple. And, yes, it was written thousands of years ago, plenty of time for people to Repent and to choose Jesus!
Yours in Christ,
Elmer

What would you do if a child you had was cursed with Downsyndrome, would you have no choice but to blame your own sins for his unfortunate disability and feel sorry for the poor chap for having such a despise because of you?

I'd cure the child with prayer, of course!
Matthew 10:8
Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.
John 14:14
If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
It only requires just a tiny little bit of Faith! Apparently, that has become scarce in this World that Jesus will soon dismantle!
Matthew 17:20
And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
Yours in Christ,
Elmer

Wow, you are very science-y, aren't you? Just plum full of the old knowledge! Oh, hang on, what exact same words do I see on this page right here?
It is generally good manners to attribute quotes to their author. See what Professor White has done in his post? Well, like that. Otherwise, people might think you actually knew something and be pretty disgusted when they found out that you were a cheat.

I don't mind posting Scripture and helping others to see the value of God's word. God. Who made the whole heaven and earth, light, the firmament, grass and fruit trees. Later on He made the sun and the moon.
He made the stars also.
That's some creative endeavour right there! Now when somebody makes something, I could make a wool jacket for example, they know everything about what they've made. I would know how the wool was spun because I'd spun it. I'd know how many stitches across the shoulder because I'd measured the shoulder width and selected the needle size and combined 2 or 3 colours of wool into a 2- or 3-ply yarn and counted how many stitches that would need and then checked the first row after casting on etc. etc., I'm sure you get the idea.
God knows everything about the universe BECAUSE HE MADE IT.

The sections I've highlighted are marked in yellow. So no, I wouldn't blame myself. I'd need to blame my parents or grandparents or great-grandparents or my great-great-grandparents.
It is true that certain types, doctors and the like, would prefer us to trust in them. Man is renowned for putting himself before God, thinking he knows better than the creator of the universe. Better than the LORD God Almighty who made him. God explains it this way:
JEREMIAH 17:5 Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.

Well, that's not the most helpful thing I've seen. Where did you cut and paste it from, dear? I only ask because it's quite unusual to see references to Dr Strabismus (whom God preserve) of Utrecht on these forums.
