I don't believe in god but I will indulge the question. Aspies could have been created to act as a monitor for humanity. With the NT's going on their merry way to creating religion and slavery etc we were needed as a moral guide to their behaviour. It is only through us that NT's have a concept of morality. If they were left alone they would have all killed each other by now for a few lousy stocks and shares or something.

If god does exist, and what I have written above is not the reason for creating aspies then all I can say is that he better have a damn good explanation by the time I die and get to meet him.

God created aspies to make humanity more interesting & force the normies to appreciate having been blessed with full bodily control...

Oh wow. Are you kidding me? You make the second thread in the post starting the ever-generic, ever-present "religion vs. atheism" conflict in the thread, and you think you have the right to now step back and believe you didn't start it?

For f***s sake, your post was almost irrelevant to the topic post. This topic is about theorizing what a hypothetical God would do. Which had nothing to do with existence of a God. You could basically be calling the thread creator

I do love how (some) Atheists apply their thought process the same as (some) Christians do: "(Ignores topic at hand) I have the absolute truth. Allow me to state it; I will now criticize something about you or your beliefs. Oh, now I'm offended that you defended yourself and I'm going to call you an arrogant idiot for it."

I mean, come on. Let's grow up. It's not just you, though.

Autism was created because god (assuming a god exists) decided that humans needed technology and science.
This was a more proper post. Staying on the topic at hand rather than going into a tangent that's been "debated" to death; regardless of the poster's belief.

And obviously, the example of what not to do. Complete with personal insults and everything! Just add people.


(Goes over to corner and has a hissy-fit that Aspies are just as misunderstanding and judgmental as Neurotypicals)

My opinion is that God gave me the special gift of autism. I am able to play musical instruments without lessons and in little time due to autism. I am a talent savant. I play many of these musical instruments in churches. I give thanks to God for this gift (the gift of autism).


I suspect you are just lucky and there is no one to thank, except perhaps you parents who shuffled the deck and dealt out your genes to you.

The fact is that ASD occur naturally in the brain and our kinds of brains are neither better nor worse than anyone else's.

I always find it funny when people try to justify why their kid was born with some disease or born gay or whatever. Scientific anomalies just happen.


Actually, I think both male and female bodies were designed for bisexualism, whether or not people are mentally or emotionally wired for it. Kind of like bodies were designed to procreate, but not everyone is mentally or emotionally wired to be a parent. And then some bodies were born sterile, but those people desire to be parents, so they can pick up the slack for those who don't but create life anyways.

AS is not a big deal. It's like how some people are more left-brained and others are more right-brained. We are all given different brains and capabilities because there are so many different tasks that need to be completed for a civilization to thrive. If we were all the same, a lot of things would never be accomplished. And if we were all straight and maternal/paternal, the world would be even more overcrowded than it already is, not to mention all the broken homes because not all straight couples stay together.

I do believe in God, and I do believe there is a reason for why every person is the way they are. None of it is a mistake.

Also, thank God for Aspies. It means I can have discussions with people that do not involve small talk.

Every Thanksgiving I make a list of things I'm thankful for. This year.. Aspies will be on that list.

Well the issue is that the Judeo-Islamic-Christian god isn't real and can not possibly be real in any way due to the fact that Christianity has been proven Geologically, Historically, Scientifically,and Logically incorrect . And then bring in the fact that Christianity straight up plagiarized several popular stories at the time including ripping the Creation story straight from The Epic Of Gilgamesh (The first recorded writing in history)


I hate when people try to use science to disprove the existence of god. The existence of a god is not an empirically testable hypothesis trying to use scientific theories to prove or disprove existence is a bastardization of their meaning. Science is the study and description of how our world works, it is not meant to describe intent.

Yes there is scientific evidence to dispute specific events presented in religious texts, but saying that this proves that a god does not exist is a logical fallacy, you do not have the evidence to support that conclusion. You are free to believe whatever you wish, but don't act like it is the inescapable conclusion unless you can actually justify it. Many of the foremost physicists have been religious, believing the study of science is the study of god.

And no, I'm not religious.

In terms of the infinitude of existence, neither do you. (Limit 1/x as x->infinity = 0) Compared to the universe you are zero.

The really smarty pants theologians would likely agree that God does not exist. God is not a thing amongst other things.
They might say God is the ground of being. Stuff like that.
I don't really understand all that business. To a very small degree I might. But not really.

As a Christian, I've always believed that people are created in God's image.

So I guess God is part Aspie. :wink:
