I believe that churches should be very careful with even consedering banning persons with disabilities. The church or temple should receive all people no matter the disability. However i do believe in taking athority over the disruption. I myself am disabled, and i am a temple elder. I’m the third in command at my shool. I know what it is like to be on the beama teaching,when an outburst happens. I do however believe that yahshuah jesus took athority over disruptive spirits. I think that if we know how to handle disabilities, there will not be such a problem. This comes by re educating our brothers and sisters in how to work with disabled persons. My ministry is designed for just this very fact. See above web adress

I was brought up as a Christian. The key passage that was always pressed on us in Sunday school was “the good Samaritan”. The key point of Christianity was love, or if you prefer Christian charity. It’s not the only aspect of Christianity, but it’s the single most important aspect, without which you are not a Christian. Cease to have compassion and become judgemental and you are no longer a Christian in my book.

I think churches should go out of their way to accomodate anyone that wants to worship. I’m paralyzed from the chest down and about 8 years ago that a church had steps and I wouldn’t be able to enter. No alternatives were offered and I searched for a month before finding an accessible church. ADA Barrier Standards DO NOT apply to places of worship.

I don’t really have an opinion on the subject. I very rarily go into the actual church. I drop the kids off for thier sunday school. Then I usually just drink coffee alone for an hour or so, then I pick them up and go home.
I’ve tried the whole church and small group thing. It’s just not for me. (yes. I am a believer in Jesus) I don’t understand the sermons. I don’t fit in with any of the small groups. I just don’t get it at all. I’m on the autism spectrum, I just don’t connect with the whole community thing. Yet, I don’t want to deny the kids. So I’ll be downstairs drinking coffee.
