    Such a super smart man. Much deeper than most anyone realized. I believe he was a savant. Sent to a school for feeble minded children. He loved beautiful things and flowers.

    Decatur, Illinois is my hometown. I can't fathom walking from there to Chicago! Darger sounds like a fascinating man. People were so ignorant during his lifetime about how people can have different types of intelligence

    If he was diagnosed today he’d be autistic. Not crazy, not schizophrenic, NOT odd, just autistic and probably Asperger’s. How lovely that his neighbours took care of him in his later years, still a very sad life. He was very brave.

      Autistic I remember being diagnosed with Autism when I was just a 6 year old kid years before in the 1990s decade before I learned the truth about me being an unbeliever in 2018.

    Darger might have seen children more as holy things to be protected then, y'know, just kids. With the context of his abusive childhood, I think it's sweet. He probably wouldn't have made a good parent, but i empathize with his loneliness. I think a lot of people who become parents do it because they're lonely. There's never been a selfless reason to have kids lol. Maybe if he had more friends, his family, and a non awful childhood, he would've made an okay dad. The empathy was there. He needed/wanted to heal his inner child via having his own. I wish he got a dog

    I once was lost but now am found was blind but now I see Amazing Grace.
    Am I a real enemy of the Cross or a very sorry saint? Henry Darger In The Realms of the Unreal. A man who asked that question truth be told maybe was trying to find out whether he was an unbeliever that became lost or a believer that became found of course it is a fact that God gave man freewill to make a choice either to come to Jesus Christ and become a believer that goes from lost to found and go to Heaven or an unbeliever that denies Him before men and wind up in that place of torment called Hell of course if we did that we would regretfully have our sin find us out and get us in big trouble right there knowing the damnation that came to pass on the unbeliever that betrayed the Truth to be crucified which truth be told was a beginning of the prophecy of Paul the apostle that said there be those who turn away from the truth and get turned unto fables.

    Henry understand what sexual assault was and how old he lives in society that even talking about sex was so taboo even a person of a different skin color is wrong to even deal with something like that medieval world in some ways are more superior to the modern ways of thinking we also think people in the classic world didn't like science or care about science this is his way of talking about sexual assault without getting to graphing with it play Lisa my version of the story I would show that the girls had been ruined or attacked or ravaged but that's common with little girls or boys too not just the trauma of fighting in the war I think it would be interesting to see the vision girls grow up into adult woman and see how they deal with their posterized stress disorder and they have a hard time with Alicia ships they have a hard time with men gay relationships if anyone would be kind of none even as a nun she has problems

    And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
    If I didn't know any better I suspect what Fanning said in this movie about Henry Darger a film I remember watching a long time ago he probably brought to pass this prophecy of Paul the apostle the last of the early churches apostles which kind of debunks and exposes the lie an unbeliever named Hugh Whitmore spread in some video where he slandered Paul by calling him a false apostle to that vain title by a vain man who if he does not repent of this evil sin he committed against a man who was murdered by an evil unbeliever named Nero he will become guilty by the curse of the ten commandments and be judged by the law if he doesn't become a believer by the new birth that Jesus Christ told to the man named Nicodemus in John chapter 3 if not he will get in big trouble in judgment day when God lets His law judge him.
