What has God done for the parts of the body that lack honor?

Les teaches that God has tempered the body together, having given more abundant honor to that which lacked. The members we think to be less honorable are given more abundant honor, and the uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness. Les explains this is just the way God works: He takes the foolish things of this world to confound the wise, and He took the things that are not to confound the things that are. He illustrates this with parents of a retarded child or a Down Syndrome child, asking which child they poured their love to, even though they had several other children.
