Was Mother Teresah an aspie? (The GOOD aspie thread)

Post Reply New Topic

Havent got a clue, just thought it might make a nice change to see one of these topics where its not someone evil or a dumbass as the subject. Its always Dubya, or Hitler, or Stalin. Can we not find someone who HASNT killed a shedload of people or generally made life a misery for someone? Feel free to think of your own "heroic" aspies. Some of the good folks out there must have been aspies, surely.

That, or the NTs and Curebies are right, and we are a scourge on the face of humanity.

Of course, i you have evidence Mother teresah WAS one, feel free to post it. She just cropped up in my mind as being quite a nice person generally.

Heh. Define "good".

Tricksy indeed. I'm thinking in terms of your Marie Curies, your Mozarts.. those who contributed something to society of definte benefit, that doesnt involve people dying in great numbers. Florence Nightingale maybe?

Bugger. OK so Mother Teresah is out of the running for being a good aspie. Next? Someone think of someone before the despair sets in.

Can you name 99 NTs you fine good? The word good does not mean alot most people are complex. My fundamentalist Christian roommate at college consider me better than alot of people but at the same time I'm far from perfect. Your going to get good and bad with a very high percent of people. So maybe 1/100 people would
very good and only 1/100 of them might be aspies. Which means 1 /10000 people would be a good person and aspie. Most them live quiet lives of deperation like most people though.

I'd just like to think that given our abilities etc, some of us might have done something worthwhile with it, that didnt involve genocide.

As for the good/bad thing, I think we all know roughly what that equates to. Curing things, looking after people, inventing things of great benefit, or arts. All we ever get is "Was hitler/stalin/some other warmongering bastard an aspie". I fancied a bit of a change.
