Re: Autism - the New Gay

If what you're saying were true, you'd follow your initial statement with something relevant.

"Autism is A disorder of neural development characterized by.." (something to do with nerves).

You don't. You go "Autism is A disorder of neural development characterized by.." (something to do with behaviour).

EXAMPLE Autism is a disorder of neural development characterised by short axons.

If you want to gab about behaviour, you'd need to go: Autism is a disorder of behaviour characterised by head banging.

You don't. If I said "helicopters are a type of aircraft.." characterised by "..tomatoes are a fruit" what would you think?

Both statements are true.

That's what we think of you.

But that's what it's characterized by.

Autism is A disorder of neural development characterized by impaired social interaction and communication, and by restricted and repetitive behaviour.

Re: Autism - the New Gay

But he would have created those choices but if he didn't want gay or autistic people he wouldn't have made those choices, and by the way being autistic isn't a choice.

If God restricted our choice it would not be free will. Even scientists like Descartes knew that and that was in the olden days. Come to the 21st century with the rest of us.

As for autism being a choice: I've seen they bang their heads or twirl the wheels on toy cars or do that hilarious tip toe dance. How is that done if it is not them doing it?

Or are you trying to say there is some invisible man in the sky pulling his strings: do you know how mental that sounds?

Re: Autism - the New Gay

God gave us free will and He gave us the Bible so we would know how to use our free will to obey His statutes (see Leviticus 20).

If we did not have a choice we would not have free will.

Can't you even see that?

Re: Autism - the New Gay

Yeah but if god created everything didn't he create those lifestyle choices, and the gay and autistic people?

God gave us free will and He gave us the Bible so we would know how to use our free will to obey His statutes (see Leviticus 20).

If we did not have a choice we would not have free will.

Can't you even see that?
