I know this thread is pretty old... but yes I have read that article as well as one of Brant Hansen's books.
I don't know if he intended it to be a shout-out to WP. I think I've heard "wrong planet syndrome" used as a nickname for AS in other contexts not related to the forum though.
Being an Aspie (unbeknownst to me until a few months ago) and a strong Christian (and a pastor's kid) who feels more alien around American Christians than with any other group, I relate to SO many of Brant Hansen's experiences. When I first heard his story a few months ago, it resonated with me a lot and now I listen to his podcasts (which he calls "oddcasts" lol).

But that was to make me rely not on myself but on God who raises the dead. He delivered me from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver me. On him I have set my hope that he will deliver me again.
