Oh, I don't just mean faith, though that baffles me the most.

I mean belief at all.

I can't hold an idea to be true if I can't prove it is true.

I can hold it as usefully true if I can't prove it is false, but that is not the same as knowing 2 + 2 is 4 in Peano arithmetic.

Wait.. Stop.. Hold the press for a moment.

This not having baths thing... is this a Aspergers thing?? I thought that was just me being me... Also.. does anyone else have problems sleeping?? Don't get me wrong, I can sleep as an olympic sport.. But a little like putting off baths or showers, I also put of going to bed, like its a waste of time, is this usual?.

Also.. I found it interesting what you said about proving things... I can test the living daylights out of something but within 1 second of completing the test without any logical doubt, I distrust my findings.


Yes apparently i think it is a aspergers thing... I can't stand baths and showers but I have to keep fresh in the mornings before i head off to college.

I do have a funny sleeping pattern. When i don't have college i can sleep for quite a very long time, but when it gets to college days, its the complete oppisite and i'm not aspergers, i have high functioning autism :P its relatively the same :)
