Jesus was autistic!?!

Post Reply New Topic

So, i realize i haven't been here on WP as long as some of you others, but this is something i think you would really like. Many people here will probably find this article to be quite the stronghold. Though some of you will criticize it as being blasphemous. I personally when i was a kid, used to tell my mom i thought Jesus was schizophrenic. She then would slap me and curse me, but to me, i used to always think he had a "hypersensitivity" to him. In my later years of learning about PDD-NOS, i actually prepondered this:

never existed

well he may have-I don't beleive what he said

I respect that. I believe he existed, but he was just a man. I think religion purposefully took advantage of his family and abused his name.

as you can tell I am not...well a christian Neo-Pagan/Wiccan solitare
whatever

he was a guy who had a beleif
and the middle ages destroyed it

Oh, really... I used to be a pagan when i was younger..

yeah I used to be christian until I saw it was a crock

I used to be christian as well, and it is a crock. A scheme to make money off people. I am now more of an agnostic. Which is weird, cause i am truly a gnostic. I had to switch my beliefs because so many people don't really understand gnosis.

No, just a witty parody.

Actually i think it's more likely that he was some sort of narcissist, as a mechanism for escaping from a crushing sense of gratitide to his adoptive father who had saved his mother from death-by-stoning by marrying her when pregnant by someone else.
He no doubt had to put up with daily admonitions never to criticise his father in any way "because of everything he had done for them", and similarly oppressive strictures.
His mothers sense of owing her life , and that of her son, to his adoptive fathers goodness, (in marrying her), might well have been an intolerable weight to bear, leading to various delusional beliefs about life after death and being destined for an important role himself, of saving others lives.

I believe jesus really was the son of joseph.

Why?

Just follow the lineage of King David. Jesus was the son of Joseph etc...

But perhaps only because joseph adopted him, agreed to pretend to be the father, take jesus on as his own son. There is a suggestion somewhere isn't there that Mary was pregnant already when he agreed to marry her.
I agree that Jesus does a "greta garbo"-and-aspie style retreat on one occasion, and attempts it on another but is thwarted, but his pronouncements are so often in metaphor that he really does not fit aspie profile. What he may have done though is ATTRACT a lot of aspies to him.

Well, i see what you are saying, but i have to say to me, i makes more sense to come up with the story of 'immaculate conception' to the actual heir of 'king of the Jews'. You see it makes perfect sense really that Jesus' family was being taken for granted of.

i think i find it easier to believe in adoption than in an immaculate conception.



Maybe he was autistic; that would make his death on the cross then a tragic misunderstanding, with Jesus unable to grasp the seriousness of the situation into which he had got himself by unguarded remarks of an aspie kind which he had made without realising how others were interpreting them. ( a bit like in Monty Pythons "Life of Brian".)
Is that sort of thing you mean?
