that is the convenient answer.!

It's the answer most likely to be true. Think about it. Many people with Asperger's (a form of autism) are extremely intelligent. So either government shots cause extremely high intelligence, or they affect people like that, at a disproportionally high rate. Neither explanation makes any sense.

This describes my 17 year old grandson but he was called autistic as a youngster. The change has been remarkable. I'm suspicious enough of vaccines to encourage my grandchildren who are childbearing age to think about this very carefully.

But then what's wrong with being Aspergers?

The Neanderthal Theory

Abstract

"In the past there have been numerous theories for the cause(s) of autism, Asperger's syndrome, ADHD and Tourette syndrome. Most of these theories can at best explain small parts of these diverse syndromes. Many of them extend their findings in spectacular ways to be able to claim to explain larger parts of the autism spectrum with little success."

"This theory approaches the problem from a new radical viewpoint. Instead of approaching autism as a disorder, brain defect or the result of poor socialization or parenting, it claims that autistics are fully functional."
