| You'd be surprised how much time my school spends teaching about the holocaust, since I attend a Jewish school. I might also point you in the direction of the crusades, the inquisition, and denote religion as one of the greatest evils of our time. |

| I have actually created a set of criteria that I use to 'grade' a prospective date/mate. Intelligence, problem solving, personality, physical ability, creativity, and resilience. I use a graduated scale, so for each criteria you fulfill, for example if you are good at logic problems, that's a point ... |

| one thing I would have a problem with about dating another aspie is genetics. Quite simply, I can't see a reason to date unless your looking for marriage.

| I'm agnostic, but I never lie. I sorta worship knowledge, or at least that's the thing that I hold in the highest regard, and lying is the antithesis of knowledge, obscuring it. |

| That's true, that not everyone of a certain race will act a certain way, but we act racist because it is a useful thing to be able to stereotype. Since it is more likely that a black person will commit a crime, shouldn't the police officer choose the black person over the white person fleeing the sc... |

| Okay, why is racism so wrong? People *are* different because of their races. I'm not saying all black people are 'gangsta', but they have a greater disposition towards it. I've seen a lot more black people get arrested for violence, get drunk, chase me through the park, ect. then white people. And w... |

| hmm, this thread has gotten off topic, but I want to say that I would not merely because I wouldn't feel comfortable in such a vulnerable position, I probably wouldn't from a girl either.
