How do I know you aren't a meat worker? Shop assistant? Bush administration advisor? No offence to shop assistants and meat workers.

Meat worker.
I quite like the sound of that.

Ishmael, don't worry about Dipstick; Emboldened by several days trolling on WP, he'll go back to school and try it on with some Jock and get his head rammed down a toilet. Check out the Pathological Demand Avoidance behaviours and see how well they fit him.

I'm still 100% sure it is genetic it just would make a whole load of sense...nearly everyone in my family has traits of autism, even my "blood" brother has a mild form of asperges. And i was hearing from my mum about my grandma having these traits. So thts why I think its 100% genetic...


But then how would you explain people with autism whose family members don't have any traits? It's definitely partially genetic - but 100%?

Becuase family members don't have 100% identical genetic materials. Heard of "generation skipping" traits?
I have an ancestor the spitting image of myself - John Alden, the fellows name is... er, was.
Damned well indistiungishable to me - but not to my other family members.
By the laws of nature, genetics being a part of that, a person cannot replicate 100% of their genetic materials - that would be called cloning, and is in direct conflict to hereditary evolutionary characteristics of almost all known animals - save those wildly alien to ourselves (amoeba).
In other words: there will always be "flaws" in genetic exchange/interaction (reproduction). Mathematics explains the rest, in terms of probability and possibility for likely characteristics and traits to manifest in certain individuals according to specific genetic history and factors involved. What mathematician has that sort of time on their hands, of course, I don't want to know...

Ishmael, You have a lot of learning and growing to do. Maybe you'll get there, maybe you won't.

Y'know, with the way you speak, I'm half convinced you're a peadophile.
Clearly, you need further education - cut the foolish comments out, and try one of those "adult education" courses drug addicts and homeless people are so fond of.

Basically; rack off. I'm sick of frigging lurkers. If you've got nothing to add, go away.

Hear me? Or, rather, read me? GO. AWAY. You're startin' to get on my nerves, ya creepy middle-aged bastard.

You've made a good example of how any clown can obtain a degree, and "flawed" would indeed be a good description for it.

Ah, paedo, how little you know!
Go crawl back under whatever rock you came from, middle-aged kid toucher.

See, I can make baseless accusations just as well as you can, troll.

Last I checked, troll, I wasn't the one who started with the insults. Now bigger off.

Hey, what did I just say? Cut the crap out, quit trolling and trying to hijack this thread, and rack off!
Unless you have something to contribute to the topic, please shut up!

Kee-riist! What is it with you trolls in this thread?!

That's definitely one for the mods, AspiArtist.

You can't have some uppity little charlatan telling you you're a paedophile FFS.

Well there is certainly some interesting information in this thread.

Ishmael, I am curious as to quite what your position is. Do you mean to convey that only genetic factors can cause a clustering of symptoms that would meet the diagnostic threshold for autistic spectrum disorder or is this a misinterpretation of your position? Is it you position that the possibility of genetic predisposition that is triggered by environmental factors or influenced in expression by environmental factors (including for instance pre-natal factors) can be conclusively excluded?

What are you asking him for ?
From everything he's posted so far, it's clear that he knows less about genetics than the average high-school graduate.
