This idiot clearly doesn't have an autistic child. My wife and I have adopted two.

What color is the sky in this numbskull's world?

They had the advantage of knowing Kmart sucks before the rest of us did.

Really?

And Down’s syndrome kids wove really intricate baskets and thats why they had an “advantage”?

Ok, then...that was real science! You posited an idea that was a piece of crap. Now go back and try again for another grant./s

Only one problem with that........there is no evidence to suggest there was a hunter-gatherer past. The only record we have is the Bible, and it doesn’t account for it.

Harmful mutations are actually beneficial ... yeah ... that's the ticket.

Wait...I thought the mercury in all of the vaccines caused autism. Then they supposedly removed all of the mercury and the prevalence of autism went up, so it was the aluminum or squalene in vaccines. So they supposedly removed them, but the CIA/NSA/Bilderbergers/CFR really kept it in and just isn’t admitting it.

First of all a survival advantage is only and advantage evolutionarily speaking if you are able to pass on your genes. Hence the formal definition of the Darwin award.

They could have been the best hunter gatherers in the world but if they couldn’t reproduce - it doesn’t count. And reproduction could very well depend on some degree of social skills.

Secondly wasn’t there info just recently focusing on *mutations* as cause for Autism? If so the sickle cell analogy won’t work as sickle cell is due to a recessive gene that is passed on with normal recessive mendelian genetics - not really sure how *mutations* get passed on - almost sounds oxymoronic to me.
