Re: The Age of Dementia
Dementia is just a disease of the brain. It's no different than someone dying of heart disease, kidney disease, cancer, diabetes, or any other disease. The difference is that any brain disease will affect the personality of the person because that's where our personality is controlled.
As for the actions taken by people who suffer from brain diseases, that is for God to decide. He knows all and understands.
I once took care of a UPC pastor who had Alzheimer's. In the end stages, he was physically abusive to his wife and would call her the filthiest names I've ever heard. In his right mind, he would never have done those things. I believe God rewarded him for what he did while in his right mind, as I believe He should.
