Three great posts from Cyndee

A few days ago, I specifically mentioned Infinitely Prolonged as a new, stand-out blog. Well, here's three examples from yesterday that attest to that:

Open Mouth…

I wish the world would stop holding Pat Robertson up as the voice of Christianity. For that matter, I wish he’d stop putting himself forward as the voice of Christianity. I’m sure God is generally displeased with America, in part because of our seeking after “naturalistic” ways to explain Him away. Somehow, I doubt that His displeasure will translate into death and destruction in such a specific way. When God’s laws and truths are violated, the nation that violates them will come to an end through their own doing. We don’t need no stinkin’ hurricanes or earthquakes; we’ll do ourselves in without their help, thank you very much.


New Early Test For Down Syndrome

I used to be habilitiation technician—that’s fancy-talk for life-skills teacher and general care-giver—to MR and DD adults, many of whom had Down Syndrome. I know up close and personal both how difficult and how rewarding interaction with people who have MR can be, from the most severely impaired to the least. One thing I know for sure is that having Down Syndrome doesn’t make them either more or less human. They have different needs, more demanding needs, but they’re people. PEOPLE. Just like the rest of us. How callous are we?


Creation/ID/Evolution

Couldn't really pick out one section of this last one to highlight. It's all good and it all goes together. Read it all - it's worth it.

UPDATE: Cyndee took down her blog (see here) so I had to remove the links, unfortunately.
