    Re: HELP ME BAN THE SPECIAL OLYMPICS !

    See first of changing my name to what it is now does say more about you then me now does it.

    Second of all you talk about how they don't get respect for what they acchieve but you do know calling them retards isn't respecfull. Try to use the word mentally disabled.

    Thirdly they reach the finishline cause they believe in it and work hard to reach that finish line. Ofcourse their will be people laughing with them. You got even people watching cycling cause they love how they fall flat on their faces. Same for carsport who watch for the crashes. It's sick yes, but will we ban that too while we are at it?

    Ow and before you kill them all in your fantastic dome of death (reminds me of some certain showers they installed in some camps...) don't you think there is something in the 10 commands saying "You shall not murder". Meaning I guess both fysicaly or mentaly.

    Maybe I'll get flagged for this comment too

      What was it before? 'Retard Hell'?

      OK, everyone, for now on, do not call the retards 'retards', call them 'imbeciles'.

      Thirdly they reach the finishline cause they believe in it and work hard to reach that finish line. Ofcourse their will be people laughing with them.

      Reaching the finish line, whoopee! Heck, at the stat of the 10 meter, to go make a sandwich and take a poop. Get back to my barcalounger and see the end of the race. So exciting!

      Ow and before you kill them all in your fantastic dome of death (reminds me of some certain showers they installed in some camps...) don't you think there is something in the 10 commands saying "You shall not murder". Meaning I guess both fysicaly or mentaly.
      Murder, yes. Kill, no, if God commands it (and he has) then His will must be done.

        We have provided scripture showing that these freaks are sent from God to punish their parents. What don't you understand about that? Was the Bible passage WRONG? Did we quote it inaccurately?

        Can you please cite scripture for me that says differently? Or even cite some scripture that says we should "respect" these punishments sent from God?

            Re: HELP ME BAN THE SPECIAL OLYMPICS !

            No, I’m not retarded. English just isn’t my mother tongue. But maybe we can have it in dutch this conversation or even French... So by now you should have figured out that I live in the old continent and enjoyed a proper education.
            To: James Hutchins
            No my name wasn’t retard hell. But I think a eight year old might enjoy that remark.
            You truly believe God will command you to murder people. See there are Muslims who believe the same thing. We call them extremist. Only their version has virgins in it. It’s a bonus added I guess J
            And about the competition, there are people who find it exiting. Parents being one of them. Seeing them achieve something maybe as small as it is. All you see are these drooling people who have no soul. I recommend you to watch “le huitième jour”. If you actually try, you will find it with English subtitles. It stars a mentally challenged actor. I know you probably won’t even bother to even Google it. But it will show you that they are people too. Who can love, hate or show any other human emotions.
            To Gabriel Reproba
            See the problem with the bible is you have to adapt it a bit. Going literally would mean you need to live in a state thousands of years ago. Which isn’t the case anymore now is it. The bible tries to explain things that men couldn’t comprehend back in the time. But if you take everything to literally you will have problems. For example the creation of earth/man. We have two stories. If we would take it literally we would be confused cause in both stories men is created on a different time. One in the beginning of creation the other one in the end. So that is why we need to look back in time and learn why they wrote that. It just wants to show us that we are an important part in the creation. The reason why we needed to know this is because back then the Jews were oppressed and they were enslaved. So they needed something that showed them they were more than just slaves (or you can translate it to drooling soulless people who could be killed by their master at any time). So they created the story of 7 days. That’s why even if people say but there were dinosaurs and stuff you don’t need to deny it. Cause the point was never creation of earth but the importance that man should never be oppressed cause they do matter.
            So what about these people. Men did not understand what was going on. You have these mentally challenged people (and back then even lepers, ect ect…) who had diseases that were not humane. How can you explain this. They couldn’t medically so it had to be something more. Punishment from God. Quick question for yourself if you got a cold do you take medication. If so, you believe in science as well cause you know it will kill the bacteria’s in your body. Now we know what is wrong with these people. It could have several reasons:
            Information comes from Wikipedia if you want to read the longer version.
            Common factors causing developmental disabilities include:We know these things now. But back then they didn’t. So they had to explain it with the little knowledge they had back then.
            So why would God hate them so much he would deny them heaven. Well I believe he doesn’t since, in case you didn’t know , they can be baptized too. So they are Christian, just like you and me. Maybe they can’t fully comprehend everything but that doesn’t mean they will be less loved. In the end if there is truly a judgment they will be judged by what they have done with the talents they got. Since they had few to begin with they will have less to show for. But if they have used the little they had to just push the world a little to the right direction. They will be rewarded like any other man.
            So my advise my dear Gabriel is to not read the bible as a history book. This means you need to work with this book. Religion is something that moves. It’s not dead matter, you need to adjust and rethink what is the point of this. What does God want. He doesn’t want to punish people with these children. This is an medical condition just like a flu. God doesn’t give you the flu because you been a bit bad. Mental retardation exists because this isn’t a perfect world. And things (see conditions above) might go wrong through pregnancy. Nothing more than that.
            ps: Wide-Open it's Belgium. And the capital is Brussels. Just so you know cause we see lots of teachers mixing the two arround in Amerika.

              Are you the best person to judge this?
              You truly believe God will command you to murder people.
              Of course, it says so in The Bible (KJV1611)


              Deuteronomy 13:6-10

              If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers; Namely, of the gods of the people which are round about you, nigh unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth; Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him: But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people. And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die.

              See there are Muslims who believe the same thing. We call them extremist.
              They are extremists! This is obvious. The One True God tells us to do it, so we know it is a good thing. The mad islamofascists are told by the rantings of bronze-age tribesmen who worshiped the moon and mentally deluded mullahs. How mad can you get? These people need locking up and locking up before they do anything at all.[...]

                Re: HELP ME BAN THE SPECIAL OLYMPICS !

                Deuteronomy 13:6-10
                If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers; Namely, of the gods of the people which are round about you, nigh unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth; Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him: But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people. And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die.


                See the problem with this quote is it doesn't involve mentally challenged people in the first place. It talks about people serving other gods does it not?

                Then secondly take the story about the Good Samaritan. Jesus probably understood that hate is a human nature (not that is it truly shown in this text but it will do also). The Samaritan wasn’t of the Jewish/Christian belief. He was a heathen. Yet he was considered a neighbor because he showed mercy. So basically the man asks to Jesus what do I need to do to inherit eternal life. The answer wasn’t kill all who are not of your faith or are mentally challenged. It was show mercy. You wanted to know a story where they say to show mercy here it is.
                The parable is found in the Gospel of Luke, chapter 10, verses 25-37.


                About Muslims. You do realize that only a small percentage of them are extremists. True Muslims (not extremists) are actually kind people who, like Christians, have rules not to kill and even give money to help the poor (1/10 of what they earn). It is not Islam you need to fear it are the extremists, whatever their religion might be, who take everything to the letter without questions asked that should be looked after. Btw they do not worship the moon like that since one of their commands, as we would call them, is: "I bear witness that there is no God but Allah and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger.
                To answer your question if I am the best person to judge if I’m a retard or not. Then my answer would be “Judge not, that ye be not judge” . I don’t Judge you on your being. For all I know you could be really good people. I came here to comment on the judgment you are casting on people with psychological disability. You have judged over these defenseless people like they were trash. How can you then not get that, as you see in the reaction of Wide-Open where they said he couldn’t be real, you will be judged by others too. Of course people won’t feel sympathetic to your cause. What you ask is not to create but to destroy. I hope you realize that the bible is a book that wants to build and not to destroy. Cause if it’s all about killing and destroying for your God. How hard can it be then to replace the words God by devil. They would have the same goal now would they.
                Don’t forget the importance of compassion, love and care for others. It doesn’t matter if you know them or not. If they are of your believe or not or if they are disabled or not. What matters is how you will act as Christian towards them.
                And if you like so much to judge me on a personal level. Please all look at your names. or quotes. And remember vanity / vainglory is a sin. Or do you believe God likes people showing off…

                  So being devout makes a person a Mooslim, I see. Are you really that narrow minded and so full of bigotry or are you just screwing around with us? Was your 'proper education done one on one at a 'special school'?

                  And about the competition, there are people who find it exiting. Parents being one of them. Seeing them achieve something maybe as small as it is.

                  ............

                  Are you really so dense as to not know why God makes these children retarded? As everyone knows, a child is born of innocence. There for is is without sin however it has not accepted God yet either. So why would God burden these little babies with defective brains and distorted faces? Beuller, Beuller?
                  He does it as punishment to the parents! So with your illogical logic, the parents, watch the results of their sins, wobbling about, drooling while they trip over a finish line where everyone wins a prize. Proud parents, watching a tortured child barely able to function in life because of these horrid sins. You think that is something to people really want to see? You really are a demented and sick SOB!

                      Re: HELP ME BAN THE SPECIAL OLYMPICS !

                      So why would God burden these little babies with defective brains and distorted faces? He doesn't if you would read above you would see that God hasn't got anything to do with it. It's just a medical condition.

                      This meaning there was never a sin to begin with. But I see you at least consider them as children now. Tortured in your mind, but that’s your opinion. But if they are already so called tortured and a punishment for the parents sins. Why disrespect them? They are innocent not? So if you would say “I don’t respect the parents” that would make sense. But to say you don’t respect the tortured child doesn’t. So in that perspective talking about killing them would be even worse since the child is the victim of it all.

                      If you want to understand why parents could be proud of their child in the special Olympics you need to first let the thought go that it is about a sin. To understand is to put yourself in their shoes. A child with such a handicap isn’t able to do much (or so you believe). Yet there they are. Proving to the world that they are there. It has nothing to do with a physical competition. It’s not like the Olympics where men compete against each other for the title of the best. It’s about overcoming your disabilities.
                      http://special-olympics.be/ this movie might give you the WHY.

                      Not a very proper education if you cannot write simple English. True should have re-read it to get the mistakes out. But education is more than language it’s also about knowledge. And I believe you are all so devoted by your own religion that you have no clue what goes on in other religions (even Christianity) making you believe stereotypes like all Muslims are bombers.

                      And being devout doesn’t make a person Muslim. Since you have multiple religions. It is to show you that not all Muslims are of the same type. Like you have multiple forms of Christianity.
                      To answer how you are showing of… well since you really don’t have a extra nick or quote it’s hard :p

                        I hope there is at least the tiniest sliver of Christian in you. God created the miracle of life. He created man, the apes and slugs. They are not all equal. For that matter, not all men are created equal either. Everyone knows it. To think otherwise, you are simply fooling yourself. If you are successful in doing that, you have made my case.

                        This meaning there was never a sin to begin with. But I see you at least consider them as children now. Tortured in your mind, but that’s your opinion. But if they are already so called tortured and a punishment for the parents sins. Why disrespect them? They are innocent not? So if you would say “I don’t respect the parents” that would make sense. But to say you don’t respect the tortured child doesn’t. So in that perspective talking about killing them would be even worse since the child is the victim of it all.
                        All babies are children, do not be an idiot (unless you cannot help it). You think parents should be proud that their sins have devastated an innocent persons life? 'Imbeciles' on display is horrifying, demeaning and decent people do not need to see these abominations.

                        If you want to understand why parents could be proud of their child in the special Olympics you need to first let the thought go that it is about a sin. To understand is to put yourself in their shoes. A child with such a handicap isn’t able to do much (or so you believe). Yet there they are. Proving to the world that they are there. It has nothing to do with a physical competition. It’s not like the Olympics where men compete against each other for the title of the best. It’s about overcoming your disabilities.
                        http://special-olympics.be/ this movie might give you the WHY.
                        The only way a parent could be prod of these 'things' is to know that someone else is paying the price for their sins. Incredibly selfish.


                        Not a very proper education if you cannot write simple English. True should have re-read it to get the mistakes out. But education is more than language it’s also about knowledge. And I believe you are all so devoted by your own religion that you have no clue what goes on in other religions (even Christianity) making you believe stereotypes like all Muslims are bombers.
                        Tell me, what makes you think that I think all mooslimes are bombers? You know little about me, as I know little about you. Sounds like prejudice to me. You know, racism is not tolerated on this message board.


                        And being devout doesn’t make a person Muslim. Since you have multiple religions. It is to show you that not all Muslims are of the same type. Like you have multiple forms of Christianity.
                        To answer how you are showing of… well since you really don’t have a extra nick or quote it’s hard :p
                        That makes little sense, should that surprise me?

                            We all get lonely once in a while, but with a true friend like Jesus you know that you're never really alone.

                            With the internets it feels like you're right around the corner. Just don't call when I'm asleep.
                            May you be a blessing to every life you touch.

                              Did I miss something? Did Jesus come back to Earth recently and tell us that we were "adapting" the Bible "a bit?" No? Huh. Imagine that. That is because there is NO problem with the Bible. The problem is that YOU WANT to adapt the Bible. You need to understand that THAT is YOUR problem.

                              I understand you want to take the easy way out. You want to change the clear-as-day text of the Bible because without changing it, you would be inconvenienced. Living by God's laws is a hard thing to do. That is why only a handful of people will make it to Heaven.

                              You feel peer pressure to start thinking that God is bad for slaughtering innocent children. Your "adapting" society has made you feel guilty about believing in a book that clearly shows that God hates most people on Earth. The liberal moral views you have allowed to seep into your subconscious screams within every fiber of your being that no loving God could POSSIBLY have wanted to create individuals that he KNEW (before creating them) would not believe in him just so he could send them to Hell to burn forever in ultimate pain and suffering.

                              Now let me ask you this: What does ANY of that have to do with what the Bible says?

                              When it comes down to a choice between what makes you feel uncomfortable and what the Bible says, I will go with the Bible every time.

                              Going literally would mean you need to live in a state thousands of years ago. Which isn’t the case anymore now is it.


                              If you are saying that technology and science have gathered more information about us since the Bible was written, I don't understand why you think that is relevant. The only way that that would be relevant is if you think the people who were the vessels of God's Word and who wrote the Bible would have written it differently if they knew then what we know now. That's absurd. God caused the Bible to be written exactly the way he wanted it to be written and God already knew everything back then. He even knew then that people like you would say that the Bible needs to be adapted for modern sensibilities.

                              The bible tries to explain things that men couldn’t comprehend back in the time.


                              Wrong. The Bible explains things that God comprehended since the beginning of time. What men could understand when they wrote it has nothing to do with the TRUTH of the text. Have you ever READ Revelations? Talk about an acid trip! You think that the human who wrote Revelations comprehended much of anything? I doubt it. But God put it in there for a reason!

                              But if you take everything to literally you will have problems. For example the creation of earth/man. We have two stories. If we would take it literally we would be confused cause in both stories men is created on a different time. One in the beginning of creation the other one in the end.
                              There are no contradictions between the two Genesis stories.

                              A bunch of babbling text.
                              You keep doing the same thing: You argue that because YOU have a hard time believing in the facts presented in the Bible (E.G. Man lived with dinosaurs) and because YOU have a hard time living with God's laws (E.G. Adulterer's should be stoned to death) then the literal text in the Bible CAN'T POSSIBLY mean what it says in plain English. How does that make sense? The clear text of a document remains clear even if it is clearly horrifying. The sooner you understand this, the sooner you can become a TrueChristian.™

                              Reading only the parts of the Bible your pastor tells you to (those that make you feel warm and fuzzy) is nothing but mental and spiritual masturbation. Read the WHOLE Bible to find out what Christianity is REALLY all about! Only then can you talk to us about why we try so hard to save people from Hell.
