to promote equality by discussing issues that affect all of us?
If you're not here for equality, then simply don't respond.
I've grown very concerned that autism will prove to be like mesothelioma, i.e., that we will ultimately discover that autism is directly caused by some common substance (like a flame retardent or insecticide), just like mesothelioma is caused by exposure to asbestos. Get rid of asbestos and mesothelioma goes away. Get rid of XYZ substance and autism goes away.
I'm concerned that we as human beings are leaving a natural wilderness (as we cultivate civilization) only to create a new one.
