I doubt that you would flippantly dispense these platitudes and statistics if YOU were born with a serious or disfiguring birth defect.
So you think that every single person on earth with a birth defect, even a serious birth defect, spends their life feeling sorry for themselves, unable to feel positive about it, let alone joke about it? You can doubt all you like, but there are many people who are like that. The righteous brigade such as yourself just love to perpetuate the victim mentality, encouraging such people to think of themselves as "poor me", so that you, Righteous, can come along and get all high and mighty and tell everyone else how caring you are. I was born with webbed feet and I don't need the likes of you claiming to give a shit about me or anybody else with the same or any other birth defect, condition, or illness. So you can shove your "caring" where the sun don't shine. I'm off for a game of football. Smell ya later.
Dang! For a "theist", you sure seem awfully hostile! I wonder what your deity thinks of such unwarranted aggression. Before you go assigning thoughts to me, let me tell you what I really think, Aquaman. Firstly, I don't give a shit about YOU. Secondly, if I have compassion for someone born with a serious birth defect or disease, that doesn't make me "righteous" or "high and mighty" - it only means that I am capable of empathy.
I hope the sun is shining during your football game!
Aquaman? Who the fuck is Aquaman? I'm Godhead!
