  If one suffers from dyslexia spelling can be one of the problems... there is such variation

  in dyslexia

  Boder developed a diagnostic screening tool for developmental dyslexia from which she divided into three subtypes:

  1. Dysphonetic- This is the largest of the three divisions. This is viewed as a disability in associating symbols with sounds. The misspellings typical of this disorder are phonetically inaccurate. The misreadings are substitutions based on small clues, and are also semantic.
  2. Dyseidetic- In this group there are deficits in vision and memory of letters and word shapes. The person is unable to develop a sight vocabulary. However they have the ability to acquire adequate phonetic skills.
  3. Alexic or mixed dyseidetic and dysphonetic- This subtypecombines the deficit of the first two groups. This person may have disability in both sight vocabulary and phonetic skills. People with this form of dyslexia are usually unable to read or spell.

  Open Minded Christians?

  by homeschool in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  does anyone know if there is such a thing as a christian church that loves and appreciates jesus, but also recognizes that it is purely a culteral thing and also acknowledges other religions as truth?

  are unitarians like this?

  i'm getting to the point where i'd really like to find a group like this.

  My Weak Agnostic Testimony

  by besty in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in terms of faith i have decided to give the invisible characters a rest for the time being.

  the last set i had weren't really adding any value, and right now i'm happy with more rational answers to life's mysteries.. in my opinion religion was an early attempt to answer these mysteries and so inevitably we are accelerating towards a post-religious world.

  when technology allows us to extend our lives as long as we wish, the need for salvation via invisible magic diminishes.it seems to me that religion is deeply influenced by parental authority and cultural norms.

  Does going beyond human rational make anything impossible ?

  “By three methods we may learn wisdom: first, by reflection, which is noblest; second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third, by experience, which is the most bitter.”

  Confucius quotes

  I venture to say that faith is also this combination .... a combination of our outer world but also our inner world

  which is unseen and unexplained and not clearly understood by others !

  The spark of life - that made that first cell replicate and the "evolution" of true consciousness and conscience make it difficult for me to accept the purely "rational" explanation of our world and our true selves...Allelsafails

  All that evolutionists do is replace the word "God" with "chance". If you believe that this planet and all life on it resulted from blind chance you have even more faith than any religious person....yadda yadda

  These two quote together are powerful , logical & bring great comfort and hope to my mind & spirit ! Thanks !!!

  I consider it an irrational request to even ask someone to "prove" their faith now. It's a paradox! "Please use these rational means to prove the irrational so I can rationalize the irrational

  This also is a beautiful thought don't ask anyone prove their faith .
