    How has Asperger's helped you serve God?

    In Briggs-Myers speak, it refers to iNtuitive/Thinking.

    Did a dog help you

    Dogs calm me down and help prevent meltdowns. Boxers are my favorite breed; they are not the smartest breed, but they are about the sweetest.

    Autism and autoimmune disorders

    I believe Hasimoto's was listed in the study. The other doesn't sound familiar. I will try to list a link to the report. I have a copy somewhere here

    Autism and autoimmune disorders

    In our Asperger's support group, we learned of a study (there are several) wherein three groups were studied: healthy people on the autism spectrum, people with an autoimmune disorder not on the spectrum, and healthy people as a control group. It turns out that people on the spectrum are much...

    God's TEN Commandments: Keep them? or break them?

    Will someone tell me exactly what is entailed in "keeping the Sabbath?"

    "Keep claiming" still does not apply for 2 in 1 citation. I am only stressing this point because it points to your lack of accuracy. And still I only cited its own claimed accuracy once (perhaps this was not so clear) and then that the author verified its accuracy. The original point remains...

    God's TEN Commandments: Keep them? or break them?

    The Law is a schoolmaster to bring us to Christ. He is our Sabbath. Strive to enter into His rest. We are not to fulfill the Law in our flesh; rather, Christ in us is the fulfillment of the righteousness of God. The law is a mirror into which we look to see whether we are allowing Christ to...

    Why do you say "keep claiming?" I said it once. I do not recall the name of the movie/documentary. It was on PBS a few months ago and was about an order of nuns from (I believe) England taken prisoner by the Japanese in WWII.

    I did not and will not watch your video that justifies what God forbids. I have had and heard all the justification and indoctrination in my RC upbringing. And if I routinely and persistently do what God forbids, why will He hear me when I call upon Him in the same manner in which I call upon...

    See response #8. And just because everyone's doing it doesn't make it right. Nor do I believe the RC to have been founded by Christ but much later. I say this as a former RC headed for the priesthood at the time of my calling out by God.

    Nope. Just that they wondered where was God in all this calamity and had never once called on Him.

    I saw a historically accurate movie made from a book by one of the survivors of a RC order of nuns set in WWII. The author was heavily involved in the movie's production and interviewed afterwards, testifying to the accuracy of the movie. In it, bad things kept happening to members of the order...
