Carl Schroeder compares ASL with Abel’s fire that is beautiful and sky-borne. All other modes of communication are like Cain’s fire that is confusing and messy. The 1880 Milan Resolution that bans the use of sign language began a hate speech against the Deaf and the language and culture of the Deaf..

EXACTLY!!
Excellent analogy, Carl!!! I had thought about Cain and Abel almost the same analogy as yours, but you explained it better.
According to the Qur’an based on its Cain and Abel story: If anyone slew a person – be it for murder or for spreading mischief in the land – it would be as if he slew the whole people; and if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people.
ASL should come first to the children before they become 12 and decide about CI. 12 years old can develop fast. Some pro hockey players started at 12.
A+ analogy! 🙂
Help me to understand the quote from bible. Leviticus 19:14 in king Jame Bible. does it applies to Deafhood/ Deaf Hate Crime and AFA?
I think it does applies to any Deaf preservation. I might misundersttod the concepts.

@DrDonGCSUS Exactly!
Interesting analogy. And they tried to kill ASL and Deaf culture too…..
