Talk:Ted Dekker

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] NPOV and mild retardation?

The phrase "in a true spirit of Christian charity" seems to violate NPOV. Also, without having the text to the reference article available, I question the wording of saying that Dekker himself suffers from "mild retardation"--the retardation article says that even borderline retardation is going to max out at IQ 79, and I have a hard time imagining a person with that level of functioning getting a Bachelor's, managing a healthcare company, and then writing novels for a living. If he has a learning disability or a mild autism spectrum disorder or something, that would make more sense, but retardation seems out of the question. I believe that this should be removed unless someone can produce the actual quotes from the article and, for that matter, evidence of its existance; the publication it's supposedly from only gets one reference on Google, and that's here. 65.25.107.20 14:58, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
