Seriously, this stuff is a mind-bender for me. It changes everything, really. Why? Because it's the exceptions into which the norms need to fit to make them "norms." The doctrine of imago dei, the hallmark of which is so often misconstrued as rationality must take into account the human being with Down Syndrome. Is that human being, lacking the reasoning facilities of other human beings, also created in the image of God? Of course.
