Quote From: tina_socal In my town there is a nationally recognized musician named Mark Goffeney who was born with no arms.
He has adapted to this condition quite well, and does pretty much everything a person born with arms can do, including changing his three kids' diapers and playing guitar well enough to be featured on national TV doing it.
I play guitar as well, and in all of my instruction and reading literature about playing guitar, I have never seen ANY mention of any protocols for playing the guitar with your feet, none whatsoever. I've never seen any mention of how to change a diaper with only your feet in a parenting book either- and of course the Bible is silent on either subject.
Any way you look at it, the way Mark does things that require picking up and manipulating things is *anything* but normal.
So- is Mark Goffeney simply "dexterity confused" because his manner of doing tasks that require it don't match the methods used by 99.999% of the rest of the world, and he ignores the limitations of his non-standard God given physical body??
Is a person who is born without legs and wants prosthetics to help him walk simply "mobility confused" and in need of counseling and prayer to get him to accept being someone who can't walk, "the way God made him"?
Is a child with Scoliosis merely "skeletally confused" if he wishes to have that condition corrected so that he can have a normal posture, unlike the twisted one God gave him?
These are physical handicaps. They did not choose to have no arms or legs or a crooked back or spine. A person that is transgender or transexual chooses to be that way.
