Hi Robert, I don't think he would deliberately put me in an unfavorable 
light. Its just that I think that often sighted persons never stop to 
even Think about what it would feel like to be constantly viewed as 
disabled first, and a person second.
They have never been in that situation, and so they do much of what they 
do out of total unawareness, or just plain ignorance.
However, I do agree whole heartedly with you that it is up to me to let 
others know how I want to be seen----and I certainly Will!!!
I am now in the proccess of composing a letter I want my pastor to read 
before he even finishes preparing the sermon.
Thank you for your support in this!
