religious a.d.d.

my son and daughter both have attention deficit disorder...
my son with the hyperactivity.
my daughter, not.

what the whole thing boils down to is that...they hyper focus on some things and cannot focus at all on others. the littlest of noises bother them while trying to say...take a test. However, an atom bomb would not stir them while focusing on...say...a book they were reading or television show they were watching.

so...where am i headed with this?

religion. a.d.d. no amount of argument or discussion will sway some from their belief in ...'whatever'....
and with some....the whole religious shiz is up for debate.
and then with others....they totally believe..while at church on Sunday...for that one hour...
and then, others...well the jewish, buddhist, indian, baptist, born again, scientologists, mormon, jehovah w., underground left, above ground right...they all just don't count, now, do they?
THEY believe they are the ONLY ones.
But other's BELIEVE that THEY are.

There's this girl, Michaela(?) who is in a cult in Redding CA who believes she has all the answers. Yet she refuses to discuss her beliefs.

There's a guy i know in NH who attendes church 7 days a week. Yet he goes out 7 days a week, drinks, gets in fights and is unable to support his children. He believes he has all the answers, yet he refuses to discuss it.

ack. i think this subject is up for grabs.

but it certainly could make for some good conversation.

it is only the people who think they have all the answers that are AFRAID of the discussion.
