Some people on this forum still take the position 'once an Aspie, always an Aspie'. I was just pointing out that such an idea is logically opposed to the concept of a 'cure'. If premise A is true, premise B can't be, so it is impossible (without doublethink) to support both premises.
"Always"? Do we know "once an Aspie always an Aspie" is shown to be an empirically tested universal, or is it just a reasoned saying?
Many say in order to prove a universal, you have to be everywhere/everytime at once, otherwise it's just inductive logic. Similarly, the only way you can prove gravity is universal is to be everywhere at once. If gravity is universal, it's a given that it'll work 1,000 times. However, if it works 1,000 times, it doesn't mean the reverse that gravity is universal, because there could be an alternative law saying only in such and such situations does it work that way.
Anyway, could it be possible that just like scientists have found ways to turn other elements into gold, future technology could turn AS/HFA into neurotypicals, just like the cure for mutants in X-Men 3? If they learn to control scientific principles and perhaps some lateral thinking added to the box?
