Re: Down syndrome is a lifestyle choice!

How can you ever believe that down syndrome is a lifestyle choice? havent you ever noticed that all people with down syndrome, well, look a bit off? and almost all of them look reaaaaly alike and share features? yeah, they share the features becouse they share a genetic disease, meaning that they have an extra chromosome. Do you think people who suffer from cancer just "choose so"?? no, its something they have no power over of.

First of all, this is NOT a debate forum. We're right and you're wrong, according to Jesus and the Holy Word of God. Please read THIS thread before making an even bigger fool of yourself.

Secondly, while the internets might seem to be "free" to you, this particular corner of the internets is a privately owned Christian forum. The rights you have on this forum are listed HERE. Please contact a Pastor immediately if you feel that any of your rights have been violated.

Finally, your unsaved opinions or tantrums are not even slightly of interest to us. We follow the Holy Word of God TO THE LETTER, and make no apologies for that. One of the most important commandments in the Bible tells us to avoid unsaved scum such as yourself. You wandered in here uninvited, and unwelcome .

If you want to debate people, THIS is the place to go.

Please make a thread of your own in the "Introductions" section of the forum, so that we can properly greet you. Tell us about yourself, your church, and how you came to find Jesus.

And if you're here to flame us, better take a look at THIS before making an even bigger ass out of yourself.

I will pray that the Holy Spirit enter you and chase the demons out of your rectum and let Jesus fill you with His Grace. If you use your God-given free will to reject Christ and His temporary death on the cross for my sins, then you are sending yourself to hellfire.

Re: Down syndrome is a lifestyle choice!

Nice, nice, so you want to tell me you were NEVER, not even once in your lifetime, sick?
Now, if that is true, please go to a doctor. Tell him that. Get checked. And help humanity (Jesus will love you for helping people) by letting scientist study you, and find why havent you been sick. Maybe you are the answer to curing humanity of all sickness? Imagine how much of a good deed that would be in the eyes of God?! You'd be the savior of humanity from sickness!

Oh, dear. What an odd question! Of course I've been sick in my life. I've even broken my leg! I all happened, though, when I was a child, and before I was Saved(tm). God used to punish me for my heathen parents (who have been on their way to Hell since I can remember), and me for following my heathen parents.

Since I began to follow instead, though, I have not been sick and do not expect to be in the future! (Unless, of course, decides to make me sick only to perform a miracle later, see John 9:1-3).

Do you understand words?
If you save lets say a child from a carcrash, you are its savior, becouse you saved it. Thats what that word means. Yes Jesus is our savior from sin. But if you saved humanity from sickness, you are its savior FROM SICKNESS.
Please read carefully becouse i did specify that in the first place.

Please read the Bible carefully, including the verse I quoted earlier for you. In that verse, God doesn't talk about eternal salvation, just about sickness (all sickness, to be exact).

If one of us had said something like that about coloreds, you would be crying racist.

What rubbish.

Jesus is the Saviour of humanity. Don't you even know that?

Re: Down syndrome is a lifestyle choice!

The answer to your question, as always, is in the Holy Bible:

Deuteronomy 7:12-16
12 Wherefore it shall come to pass, if ye hearken to these judgments, and keep, and do them, that the Lord thy God shall keep unto thee the covenant and the mercy which he sware unto thy fathers:
13 And he will love thee, and bless thee, and multiply thee: he will also bless the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy land, thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep, in the land which he sware unto thy fathers to give thee.
14 Thou shalt be blessed above all people: there shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your cattle.
15 And the Lord will take away from thee all sickness, and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou knowest, upon thee; but will lay them upon all them that hate thee.
16 And thou shalt consume all the people which the Lord thy God shall deliver thee; thine eye shall have no pity upon them: neither shalt thou serve their gods; for that will be a snare unto thee.

Illness is God's punishment, either for the sinners or the children of the sinners. True Christians™ don't get sick. Period.

Re: Down syndrome is a lifestyle choice!

Only if it's warranted. Should it be legitimately confirmed, I have no choice but to accept it.

You have no choice but to accept Christ Jesus. Turn or burn, demon.

Re: Down syndrome is a lifestyle choice!

...find me confirmed instances in which God's grace has lifted the disease from an inflicted individual.

Just for you to refute out of hand any evidence they provide, because it won't adhere to your rigorous scientific scrutiny (for reasons you'll invent for the purpose)?

[MaroneyBaloney]

Re: Down syndrome is a lifestyle choice!

Down's syndrome is caused by a genetic abnormality in which the individual possesses a third 21st chromosome, hence the scientific name for the disease is trisomy 21. Because every cell in your body has the same DNA, there is no fixing this disorder.

To all who refuse to believe Down's syndrome is hereditary, find me confirmed instances in which God's grace has lifted the disease from an inflicted individual.

Re: Down syndrome is a lifestyle choice!

down syndrome is an biological recognized disease, if you think its bullshit you should get yourself checked, you might just have the down syndrome yourself idiot.

Why the hate, friend?

Friend,

We are open minded here at Landover Baptist, so shame on you for pushing dogma and attempting an argument from authority. Just because science bases it's conclusions on vigorous testing and all viable evidence doesn't mean science has the only answer for this, ok? We are just saying look at both sides before deciding for yourself.
