I'm struggling to make friends and I'm not sure what to do
I am rather new to all of this, having only discovered I was autistic about a year ago. But from all of the books and forum messages I have read and all the podcasts I have listened to, this is a pretty common theme. As I approach 50, I find myself in a similar situation. Back when my life...- SeanF

Why do Humans believe in the Existence of God?
Honestly, I have loved reading the discourse especially between @The Pandector and @Hypnalis. Thanks for the interesting read. I also appreciate the complexity of the arguments from both sides. But I think the thing I appreciate the most is that I feel both sides have managed to cool down a bit... -
Why do Humans believe in the Existence of God?
That is interesting. I think it is cool that you both are capable of changing your entire worldview based on the rationality of an argument. Maybe it is an autistic thing. I have found this scenario to be in the minority. Usually people's eyes glaze over the second you start discussing the... -
Why do Humans believe in the Existence of God?
To my understanding, the original post asked, "Why do humans believe in the existence of god," not "what" or "who" do they believe that God to be. Too often posts about the higher power of any religious affiliation devolve into a sabre rattling contest about one particular religion or another. I... -
Why do Humans believe in the Existence of God?
I agree that it would take much longer to discuss this sort of topic than simply exchanging emotionally charged blog posts. I recall taking a semester of epistemology (what is true?) back in college. I would say very few people use a consistent approach when discovering the reality of anything... -

Autism is a "disease"?
According to a recent FORBES article, autism is a disease that can be caused by chemicals in common household products. This is taken from a health hazard assessment conducted four years ago by the CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL CONTAMINANT BIOMONITORING PROGRAM. I have a lot of feelings about the...- SeanF

Self introduction
Welcome! I agree with a previous poster. If you haven't played any of the previous versions of Baulder's Gate, you should check them out. BG2 will always be one of those games that lives in my memory. Good times. Anyway, welcome. :)- SeanF

Have you written a screenplay?
Nice. I have written both novels and screenplays before I knew I was autistic. Since then, I have been toying with ideas about how I would want autism portrayed in a movie without simply perpetuating stereotypes. Did you add an ND character, or were they commenting on your style of writing? If...- SeanF

Christian concept of "Faith" question
I am not being dismissive. One of my degrees is in theology, specializing in NT scholarship. I was merely seeking clarification to join in what I perceived to be an interesting discussion in the most respectful way possible. Odd that I am feeling attacked for doing so, especially since we are... -
Christian concept of "Faith" question
I am sorry, but I have no idea what that means. Are you referring to God dividing and conquering? -
Christian concept of "Faith" question
Not sure you understand me. My comment about 45,000 denominations is neither meant to prove or disprove the concept or reality of God. I merely seek to understand the terms being used before venturing a response. I Calvinist, for example, will provide a vastly different answer than a Free Will... -
Christian concept of "Faith" question
If only that meant we no longer needed to further define the terms... Despite the somewhat snarky response stating that you posted the question referring to a "Christian concept of God," I am sorry to say that the term "Christian concept of God" does not mean the same thing to all Christians...
