I'm a Christian Aspie

Post Reply New Topic

It's really nice to meet you all! (And I thought all Aspies were Agnostic or Atheists - I guess that's an NT for ya!)

I'm sort of sad to think that this might/have incited misunderstandings or anger with some of you. It's not to take offense to those who are not Christians.
I have nothing against with any religion, or any race.


In fact, we are here in this site because we have something in common. And maybe, that something can help us connect with one another at a more peaceful and joyful relationship. I acknowledge that I am more spiritual than religious. I love to study Spirit Science and philosophy though it might contradict my religion at some point, I just find a certain something in common with them and connect. I have the capability to learn information about anything I want. In this age of information, we are getting smarter. Yet, it's my decision to choose what to instill in my mind.



Sometimes, I really feel a certain deep agony when a thought that day by day, our generation is getting worst. That in the future, this world will be a wasteland. I really shed into tears whenever I think that I/we are getting influenced by destructing vices. And yes, indeed, none of us are perfect. All the time, I am thinking where shall my soul go when I die? I do think of reincarnation, I do think of heaven and hell. But whether my thoughts are contradicting or not, I still hope for the better. It's hypocrite to say that I wanted to do something to save humanity and to preserve our mother earth without changing my own. But I have this fervent yearning in my heart, and it's inundating with opulent richness.




I just wanted Love, Hope, and Faith to prevail and I am telling this to myself, I am talking to myself that I should be a good person that I am not powerful on my own. I am not powerful. I admit that I am weak. I cannot control everything, and the failures and heartaches that I experience in my life aren't just something I can vanish my own. I may have intelligence, charisma, or pride but what mostly make me joyful of myself is to know that I am weak but I have God to depend on. I have friends, and people around me which I am hoping to meet and learn from. I am still hoping that even in a minority, regardless of our differences we can connect in our likeness and that we wouldn't end up hurting one another.



'Love you people

I'm a Christian and suspected Aspie, and a pastor's wife.

I'm unusual among females in that I love philosophy and theology. (I hate saying so, but truly it is rare to find another woman who will discuss this stuff. I couldn't even find other wives who were interested when my husband was in seminary.) I have not studied this stuff in depth, so I can't keep up with the "heavy hitters" around here, but I enjoy reading it and gleaning from the discussions as best I can.

I was once one of you, though I wasn't known to be an aspie at that time.

Another Aspie of the Protestant Christian faith, here.....

I enjoyed the OP, so much----it was WONDERFUL----that I copied and pasted it into my word processor, and saved it!!

Hi, I'm the father of an aspie daughter and I've recently been hanging out here on the Wrong Planet forums. I'm a retired Army chaplain, Southern Baptist.

There are times here you get a lot of pushback about having Faith. But recently there was a thread called "Prayer is a waste of time" complete with video proving the point. But that OP had a lot of posters Disagree with the thesis, those of Faith as well as non-believers.

And this thread has given me hope when so many raise their hands and say, Yes I'm a Christian too.

I, together with at least some who have contributed to this thread, am a Protestant Christian, Lutheran. However, I have a feeling that I would be more at home in the Catholic Church but at the same time I am most unwilling to change my denomination. Things would be different if I had always been Catholic.

I have attempted to solve this problem - if it is a real problem at all - by deciding that I classify myself as a Lutheran who accepts the Catholic doctrine. That's what Luther was, Catholic.

I trust in Jesus, but I stopped following any Christian religion or denomination and I don't go to any church. In the past within my family I was Catholic, Fundamentalist, or Charismatic at different times. I found them all to be empty, for what I was looking for. But I still found I trusted Jesus, so I stuck with just that.

I do have an interest in the End Times, but I don't believe the Pre-Trib Rapture position. I'm guessing the truth is more around the Post-Trib or Pre-Wratch position. I'm fascinated with how the world is shaping up and how that might match ancient prophecy.
