520 |a In this essay Hauerwas explores the question of suffering. Does developmental disability necessarily have to be equated with suffering? He explores the nature of suffering in its physical, psychological, and social dimensions and relates this understanding to the life situations of people with developmental disabilities. Hauerwas distinguishes different dimensions of suffering and makes a case for suggesting that suffering when applied to the lives of people with developmental disabilities takes on a deeper and more social meaning. The suffering they experience may well be more extrinsic than intrinsic to their particular condition. Reflecting on the theology of Arthur McGill, Hauerwas presents a model of understanding developmental disabilities within the framework of the body of Christ. If the face of God is found in the face of “the retarded,” what does that tell us about the nature and purposes of our communities?
