| Although I am definitely anti-cure, I am a strong supporter of therapies and treatments that can allow a person on the spectrum to cope through live a little easier. I am also a supporter of people who take steps to control or eliminate symptoms that are causing interfererence in their lifes. You c... |

| I'm an agnostic (I neither believe in, nor discredit any religion or atheism). I do, however, blame some things on religious fundamentals. Things such as homosexuality being unacceptable, and things such as feeling wrong to live together/have children without marriage, and making boys feel guilty f... |

| Except that it IS a very real disability and pretending that its anything else is like calling those who DON'T have successful careers lazy, good for nothing slackers who are just using autism as an excuse. Don't we hear enough of that from the pea brained haters in the world? Way to take a handful... |

| Like several other people have said, they don't make me cry but they make me angry. They don't even have to be sudden or exceptionally loud to make me angry. Lots of noises make me angry. :lol: Have you ever been crossing the street and almost got hit by a car? Or anything similar, that causes your ... |

| If it makes any difference, I'm completely baffled by this entire thing. Had I gotten that PM, I probably would have just ignored it because I wouldn't have known how to respond. It's happened to me here before. However, not responding is probably viewed as rude as well, so who knows? Actually Zen,... |

Why does it matter if that's socially acceptable if it's in your own house?
I would look and smell like a hobo. |

Damn, I didn't even watch Seinfeld and I got that. 
Is Sagan your real name? I'm not being creepy. I just really like it. It's my new favorite girl's name. |

Yeah, my response to people trashing things I like is more to keep it to myself. It's never made me stop liking the things as much.
However, discovering certain facts that I didn't like about things that I liked has made me stop liking them. |

| However, it is my opinion that organised religion can be the most evil thing ever invented. Since the beginning of history, religion has been used to incite violence all in the name of god, whichever god that is. It has been used to manipulate people to the benefit of a few. This control for gain t... |
