I'm no longer surprised by the ignorance of some Americans.

A survey was conducted, asking American parents what they would do if they found out that their son is a Homo Sapiens.

About 70% said they would kick him out of the house.

LMAO Yay you for posting that!

This is a classic example of tinfoil-hattery at its best. The government wants you to be autistic! Never mind that a good proportion of autistics on various parts of the spectrum rely on the government in order to eat and have a roof over their head. But hey, who cares about that right? :lol:

Okay, from what I've read Vigilans, you're pretty smart. So why are you (or anyone else on here) wasting energy trying to argue with a hard core conspiracy theorist? If logic worked on them, they wouldn't be hard core conspiracy theorists in the first place. Please don't bother trying to make that person see reason-- it's like beating your head against a brick wall; you won't make a dent and you'll get one hell of a headache :-)

Thanks JE. I just noticed I called you 'mate' before checking your profile to see if you are actually male, so now I'm embarrassed. :oops:

I know, you're right, but I can't help it sometimes. Many of us WPers (especially ones like me, the PPR goons :lol:

they aren't "controlling the population", because the people with autism aren't dead. population control refers to killing a portion of a population, if the government sees that there are too many people.

seriously though, why do people honestly believe this horrible lie conceived by wakefield?

Or, notice how Aspies and people with Autism never have sex. They have a horrible time with relationships, they never reproduce. Even if they did try to reproduce what if the agent in the vaccines made them sterile? That is another way of controlling the population captain sh4brns.

You hide behind the wall of labeling certain people, "Conspiracy Theorists", but what if certain people actually knew of these things happening? It wouldn't really be a Conspiracy or a theory now would it? You presuppose that there is no corruption. You presuppose that your government and those in authority do not lie to you. You believe that they create a standard or law that is fair and just for everyone and that there is no ulterior motive. You defend the master that beats you, like a well trained dog. Then you have things like wiki leeks that suggests that the governments might not be so admirable and that the people who are wealthy and powerful might commit certain atrocities to keep that wealth and power. Are you really that clueless?

Speak for yourself. I have a diagnosis that I have Asperger's, but I'm married, have plenty of enjoyable sex, and even have a five year old daughter. And I'm pretty certain that both my parents displayed autistic symptoms, as well.

There are plenty of sexually active people here. You'll find yourself a nice woman some day, I promise. Don't give up hope! (or if you're a woman, you'll find a man... etc lol)

Damn you, Orwell, enabling the very attitude that enables all of this!

I don't see how I'm enabling the attitude that enables YECism or other such nonsense.

If it was genetic then autism would actually decrease instead of increase. Think Darwin and natural selection.

Wonderful land of AUT topic

When a child is found to be less than perfect (however mom and dad define it) we rush to blame something, whether vaccines, alien abductions, mcrowave ovens or gamma rays. Whatever.

Much of this is genetic. My father suffered from alcoholsim, depression, and probably he was Aspie. My brother has tourettes, my sister has depression, as does my youngest daughter. I never received MMRs, as I am in my fifties. My oldest daughter has a wonky uterus/pituitary gland and is unable to carry a zef to term. Vaccines did not cause any of this. Humans are not perfect. We learn to live with our limitations, and get medical/psychological help to work with challenges. Maybe someday we can keep the good genetic stuff(like creative Autism!) and weed out the bad, nonfunctioning, debilitating crap.

A century ago, many babies born with challenges did not see the light of day for long, and many with lower functioning Autism probably died of other causes before their challenges would be visible and more of an issue to the family/society. We live longer due to many fortunate benefits, including healthcare, social safety nets, education, and the like, so many Autistic people live longer, and so their challenges are visible. I for one, am glad we are here, as we have a lot to teach humanity, if the rest of the world would listen. (Hey, I love lecturing from atop my virtual soapbox.

Yeah, me for one. My parents serves as example two.
I'm only going by observations made in hindsight about my parents, as neither of them were ever diagnosed. But I am in fact diagnosed as having Asperger's, and as I have stated earlier, I am happily married, and have a five year old daughter diagnosed with PDD-NOS. And I will not be at all surprised if she one day marries and has children.
