Deafness

(Redirected from Deaf)

Deafness is the condition of not being able to hear. In the United States those with the disability of deafness are entitled to certain government programs to help them due to the limitations imposed upon them by their disability. The legal definition of deafness in America is not absolute loss of hearing, but an inability to hear up to an acceptable level even with corrective devices.

Deafness can be a condition from birth or be caused be a later accident or illness. Loud noises can cause deafness or hearing loss.

In the Bible, Jesus cured the deaf and restored their hearing.

In recent years, deaf people have been the victims of exploitation by liberals as yet another politically correct identity politics group, often under the term "Deaf culture" (spelled with a big-D), even going so far as to claim that deafness should not be cured because deaf people were "born that way" and therefore it is a difference in human experience and not a disease. ^[1]
