>Religious believers intuitively conceptualize deities as intentional agents with mental states who anticipate and respond to human beliefs, desires and concerns. It follows that mentalizing deficits, associated with the autistic spectrum and also commonly found in men more than in women, may undermine this intuitive support and reduce belief in a personal God.
>...it is possible that the autism spectrum is associated with interest in math, science, and engineering (IMSE), which in turn reduces religious belief.

If autistic people lack the ability to understand other people's feelings and desires, then obviously there can be no moral imperative for them to care about anyone other than themselves. If your life is based on numerical values in a graph, calculations using formulas and looking at the world through a mechanistic lense then you become sociopathic.
I've never met an autistic person that wasn't socially awkward and giving off creepy serial killer vibes.

Makes sense to me.

Being autistic means you can't see the forest for the trees.

I always get the feeling that autists are disconnected from everything that's innately human. It's like talking to a machine sometimes. A machine that only lives on stimulus from its surroundings.

There is a piece missing in their minds so obviously their behaviour is defective by nature. You can't blame them for it but you also don't have to care about them or take their wellbeing into consideration. I rarely see autistic people that treat others with dignity or have a basic understanding of compassion because it's all just repetitive rituals to them that make it easier for them to blend in.

>I believe that to understand neuronormativity, we must first understand Solipsism. Solipsism is the belief that only the self and its experiences exist. A solipsist would believe that their experiences are the only experiences, essentially reducing others and their experiences to sub-human automations.
>In my opinion, while neurotypicals have been using ideas such as theory of mind to accuse Autistics of lacking the ability to know another’s mind, neurotypicals have been so unaware of the existence of neurodivergent experience that they will inflict pain on us to “help” us conform to their standards.

You can tell that autism is a huge problem for society. The majority of autistic people have alexithymia which means they’re unable to know what feelings are and that makes them mentally unstable. If an individual with these kinds of issues gain political or monetary power it will always be disastrous. Think of it as involuntary psychopathy.

Gotta love the "understanding" on here.


I hate the glorification of autism but this whole pathologising autists as sociopaths is ironically projective.

Fuck all of you.
I bet you all have a level of autism and you dont even know it.


Also religion amd science arent mutually exclusive in pursuits

Quite scary.

It's true, though. Due to autists lack of understanding they also misunderstand social context and more damage can be done in any situation.

Autistic people can hold grudges over nothing. The danger of not being able to comprehend normal daily interactions is that you get angry and vindictive over absolutely ridiculous comments or banal conversations.

They grind their teeth all the way down to the pulp because of some random woman asking about directions in the street and she just happened to put emphasis on one syllable which made the entire sentence a sarcastic, verbal assault against their pride and self-esteem.
