  • Non-verbal, debilitating autism is extremely difficult. I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. It’s like asking what’s wrong with schizophrenia and “why do they want to ‘cure’ it”?

    Sure, but there are also types of autism that are nothing like that. A lot of those people like their brain the way it is, and they wouldn’t take a cure if there was one. I don’t think you can say the same for schizophrenia.

    Someone I love is non-verbal and currently going through the straights with their disability.

    I assume you meant “straits”. Unless they’re being hassled by a bunch of heterosexuals.










  • Back then this was a mainstream belief, heck Christianity itself was incredibly mainstream…

    Christianity is still “incredibly mainstream”. In fact, the more extreme Christians have become so mainstream that they’re running the government now.

    Now you are allowed to not believe in magic, in fact it seems to be slowly becoming the dominant position.

    I don’t know where you were living, but I’m confident that most people in the 90s didn’t believe in magic. Yeah, The Craft was pretty popular, but I didn’t know anybody who thought that it was a documentary.
