Believers in God, I need your help

What RudeArthurRude(haha, sorry mate) is saying is that concept NT is not a neurology in itself, but simply the absence of other qualifying neurologies.

Neurotypical is the 'not otherwise specified' group of all neurologies. They are not all the same, and some are not even remotely normal. Its just that they dont qualify for autism, nor schizophrenia, or any other development disorders.

I was going to make a joke about generalisations - but thats a good point you sort of made against yourself

well, one should tend to blame God for many troubles, but actually people are to blame for it, the bigotry, unacceptance or any problems towards ASD people are people themselves, although one could blame God for creating men in the first place (What was He thinking?!)


Because atheism doesn't seem to be about consciously turning your back on God, despite few claiming it is, it doesn't seem to be: "I'll decide to disbelieve in God because he doesn't let me drive", it doesn't look that that defines atheism. (a bit of a joke in there)


well, it is true that atheism may eventually arise from subjective experiences and that seems a bit of a problem, instead of being for completely intelectual reasons, at least from my perspective it looks that that actually happens. Questioning the Bible seems to be also the case, I do know that people tend to question things when those things don't seem to work for them in their daily and acumulated experience, and I tend to see that as a common reason for rejections of many ideologies, philosophies and religion as well as embracing some of them. I'd prefer to reject the Bible for intelectual reasons mainly, if I reject the Bible, and even so, the consideration may not be the Bible itself, but rather few interpretations of it.

Blaming God for your troubles and then becoming Atheist is pretty stupid. Don't get me wrong, it's a good thing to get away from the whole wizard in the sky who made the Earth 6000 years ago thing, but the whole "God didn't give me my unicorn so I ain't gonna believe in him anymore!" is just silly, and if that's your rationale for not being religious anymore, you're most likely gonna come right back to God - No no, he didn't hit me, I just fell down the stairs and walked face-first into a door, but it's alright now because he loves me.

That's called Battered Wife Syndrome by the way, and it applies to God, too, when you think about it. You should think about how it relates to you.

The god of the bible doesn't exist outside of the minds of those who believe in him.

Any questions?
