"Worse, it’s petty and tiresome."

So now you are justifying making fun of the disabled, as long as it is in the service of the YEC cause. Do you really think Jesus is proud of you right now? I have a daughter with Spina Bifida and I have had to witness first hand the pain caused by insensitive comments, smirks and taunts like you are approving of. You are and GGG are both pathetic.

Have I made fun of anyone disabled ? (the term its self is offensive to my chair bound friend) Have I justified so doing? When? Where? Approving of?

You sound bitter about something in life that is manifestly unfair and unchangeable at the moment.

Do you ask why God would let this happen to someone has done nothing at all to deserve it? Maybe Why me?

My chair bound friend has never walked and can only stand after several surgeries. Her father left her mother at this girl's birth some twenty years ago.
Nevertheless, she's a happy person and counts herself blessed as neither she nor her mother are angry or bitter over what has taken place in their lives.
Rather they've come to understand that the healings Jesus performed while on earth are just a taste of what he would do as King in God's Kingdom.

So this young lady is happy and has a hope for the future. I feel blessed just knowing her and her mother since my challenges in life cannot begin to equal theirs.

And what is more, neither she nor her mother feel embarrassed or needing of sympathy for her problems.

Maybe the insensitive one is you. Insensitive toward your own attitude and feelings about your daughter's problems.

Is Jesus proud of me you ask. I ask that enough I need no one else to do so. But I am able to ask.

I'm sorry for your bitterness and anger. You have enough on your shoulders already.

You’re being ridiculous.
