| Religion - a system of worship that has general acceptance and political power . Scientology seems like the kind that appeals to people who have too much money and time on their hands and too little intelligence to put those to good use. They do go after folks with money. But they exploit all class... |

| Interesting posts on this thread. There are many amusing ironies in the biggest holiday in the Western World. Christians whistfully long for a "non materialistic" christmas of a non existent past. Jews complain about having to hype up their holiday of Hannukka to compete with Christmas and make Hann... |

| I do. I hate being the last person to post in a thread, especially if it's a few hours before someone else posts. I always think I've posted something either boring, off-topic, or offensive without realizing it and everyone's being too polite to tell me. In fact I wish I could squeeze my post in be... |

| Damn! I wish I had that as a problem? What to do on weekends. One of my two jobs takes up all of my Saturdays. I cant even participate in a local aspie group because the group only meets on saturdays. I do an unpaid "job' on sundays hosting a public access radio show. That takes up a lot of time for... |

| Aspies are often like idiot savants- impaired, but super talented at something. Usually it is something useless, but often an individual lucks out and has a talent at something that earns them a living and compensates for the social impairment. Like winning the lottery. Had Bill Gates been obsessed ... |

| Actually, it doesn't really matter, and everything people tell you about this is BS. Vote only if you like doing so. You'll have more influence if you just write letters, sign petitions, and other things, and most of those don't take as much time/effort. Thats like saying "when traveling to Europe ... |

| Some mental health pros think that Bill Gates is in fact an Aspie as evidenced by his public appearances, which some say have improved over the years. So he is getting better for passing as normal. |

| The conspiracy never really made much sense to me. I haven't really read into it but why would Israel purposely sink one of our ships? That's truly the appeal of any conspiracy theory, the mere spectrum of possible conjecture able to be espoused as if it were factual. Its a fairly straightforward c... |

| It's probably just because of the stereotype that aspies are afraid of social activities that involve drinking or having sex, or are just too socially confused to even get invited to such events in the first place. Islam isn't okay with either so naturally the typical aspie would gravitate towards ... |
