Ask an autistic person anything

[xAlphaStarOmegax]

I'm kinda bored and down, so I wanted to do an AMA. Interested? Then ask me anything.

FYI: I avoid questions and comments that are made as bait just to incite arguments. Other than that, feel free to ask anything as long as it's not breaking any rules or trying to start some sort of drama. Thanks.

I was raised as a Christian, and I've had miracles happen and seen things that have reinforced my faith in God.

This is my favorite verse;
John 15:13
King James Version
13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

i can see that, i haven`t experienced a miracle yet but maybe i haven`t been paying attention lol

i like the verse very true indeed

How do you deal with close social interaction?

Honestly, I don't have many close interactions. The only person in real life that I actually socialize with is my partner.

I did read your favourite book is the bible. Isn't that contradictory, tho? Often autistic people or Aspies are atheist because they see the world in a realistic manner. Also they don't understand the world as it huge and scary. As well they tent to believe in scientific stuff rather than following a religion.

No, it's not contradictory at all. Autism is a spectrum. I am myself; I am not anyone else, so I can only speak for myself. To me, my faith is realistic, even if it may not be to some others.

Oh nice. How are you doing reading that thing? Must be a slog getting through old english. On the other hand, it's very poetic and charming.

I am actually doing pretty well reading it, but I am used to the style of it because I have been reading it from front to back since I could read. I have tried some other translations, and the KJV is the only one that works for me.
