If everything's spiritual then there's no point in having institutions of learning. There's no point wasting time and resources in researches to advance the society. There's no point having hospitals when you can pray every ailment away. Left with people like you in this world, we'd still be in the middle ages because rather than seek objective solutions to problems, you like to save your brain the stress and ascribe the solution to be spiritual which doesn't require much brainpower.

was just tryna help a brother asking for help.

That's great! But don't try to give what you don't have. That will put the brother in more trouble than he is already.

You are the one that need your eyes to be opened if you can't separate objective reality from spirituality. Everything cause has an effect and every effect has a cause and you should understand that not every effect has a spiritual cause.

Most of the things that were once thought as spiritually caused in the past are now understood to be actually not spiritually caused.
For instance people with ur kind of mindset once thought twins were children from demons and even went as far as killing them. But now we know better. With modern science we understand how twins come about. The same thing with mental disabilities, modern science has studied intellectual disabilities so much that we know a lot about it than in the past. We know it can be caused by genetics, fetal alcohol syndrome, oxygen deprivation at birth, low birth weight or premature birth, diseases during pregnancy etc... I just pray you don't have a child that would be needing of medical attention but because you think everything can be dealt with spiritually, you'd be taking ur child from prayer house to prayer house seeking solutions... I feel sorry for such child because he/she would be the one to suffer your gross negligence and ignorance.

Your brother is likely suffering from dyslexia since he has problems differentiating between numerics like 17 & 71 as u claim.Autism isn't the problem as some people claim here, infact, autism should make smarter. I d advise u see a specialist

infact, autism should make smarter - This is a misconception. Autism does not make you smarter, it affects different people in different ways. I'm not sure where you heard that autism makes people smarter. There are a number of stereotypes about autism, including the widespread belief that autistic people are endowed with extraordinary intellectual capabilities.
Even the World Autism body says this - In fact, recent studies that measure intelligence in autism point to a tendency toward lower than average objective measures of cognitive aptitude among those with autism.

Very very clear your brother is in the autistic spectrum and may also have a learning disability,maybe dyslexia

It's not the poor boy's fault that his brain is wired to see 17 and think it's 71,not his fault that reading appears so overwhelming..the alphabets musy appear scrambled to him & his brain can't cope.

Think about it,do you think he would choose not to know the difference between 17&71 by choice?

If someone gives you a book and places it upside down,would you be able to read it?

The poor boy must have been struggling for so long,his self esteem must be in tatters.

You and your family should see a paediatrician or a child psychiatrist or psychologist for a diagnosis then hopefully point you to a specialist that manages kids with learning disabilities

You all must be frustrated and i empathise but think of how much your brother is suffering.

O Gracious Father. Please intervene in the life of this young man.
In Jesus name I pray.

Your submission made me shed tears uncontrollably. Little wonder ha has so withdrawn...

Please you and your family should show him love now more than ever before.

God shall Grant you grace

Yet none of you could figure out he has a learning disability

You have no idea what you're talking about. You don't make diagnosis without thorough examination and analysis of the patient. But I know you will not understand this.
