Anyone who builds their opinions based on love would not be able to find anyone else inferior.

Let me clarify a few mistaken points you made regarding my view of MrBest.
1) John Best Jr calls himself a Hater of Autism by virtue of the title of his blog. It is not a random epithet I threw at him.
2) I didn’t say I find his humor disgusting. What I said was “Calling it humor is disgusting to me”. I do not find anything he says humorous. I do indeed feel disgusted when I read him.
3) I did not suggest he is diseased. On the contrary, I suggest he is neurologically diverse.

If HE calls that a disease…. well… I wouldn’t be surprised.

It is true that I see his thinking, and proclamations as inferior to the opposite opinion (which would be founded in Love).

I have found that I can most help my son by concentrating on where he is now, on who he is, today, right here, and by accepting autism and trying to understand how those who have lived with autism all their lives have suffered and lived and learned, about what their stories are.

1.Because we genetic autistics don’t want our brain differences changed or cured or anything else.
2.The medical and psychiatric professions have lumped all the nasty co-morbidities often found in autism as part of the label rather than separate illnesses. This was actually caused by insurance companies but you don’t want me to get started on them so we will leave the blame on the medical community.
3. These parents use a 4 letter word to describe their desire to remove the intense pain their children are experiencing and we despise that word.

I have seen one of these precious vaccine injured autistic children up close and personal. I have given respite to her mother. She is miserable. Well she was until I got her mother to get her to a doctor for chelation. She is much better now. She is Autistic. That will never change. What she is not now is mercury toxic. Now before everyone has a fit. The recognized mainstream medical treatment for mercury and lead poisoning is chelation. It has been the mainstream medical solution for years. The only issue is how to test for toxicity to get accurate results. Even the Bio-med community argues over this one.

On the subject of Freedom of Speech and parents being led astray and all that rhetoric.
Besides being nothing but inflammatory and totally non-productive it is just so insulting.
1.That statement insinuates that parents are too stupid to figure out for themselves what is best for their children.
2. Well Ghandi said it best
Freedom is not worth having if it does not connote freedom to err. It passes my comprehension how human beings, be they ever so experienced and able, can delight in depriving other human beings of that precious right. —-Mohandis “Mahatma” Ghandi

On to John himself
Ok he CAN be a total jerk at times. He is a very angry parent of a very sick little boy. I would be angry too if my child was going through what his child is going through. You can go look at my kids at youtube and you will see why I can be a “Happy Aspie Mom” but my friend does not have pictures of her daughter that look like the pictures I have of my kids. Her child cried all the time. She had bruises all the time (self inflicted). She was a sick little girl. Autism did not make her sick. Her co-morbidities made her sick. I know that and luckily because of her association with me and my family her mother knows that. John doesn’t know that yet. Well maybe a part of him knows that but he still wants to get his son out of the horrible pain he is in. To fail to cure these co-morbidities and leave his son in pain is a sin and a crime. IT IS ABUSE. That is the message that John is spreading. I don’t approve of his methods all the time but his message is right.

The other thing about John is that he uses humor and satire to release stress. Go watch Weird Al Yankovich if you want to see the kind of stuff I mean. Also the Blue Collar Comedy Tour which consists of Jeff Foxworthy/Bill Engvall/Ron White/and Larry the Cable Guy. Some of what he writes is purely done in this style. If we get our sesetivities off our sleeves and learn to laugh at ourselves we will seem like less fanatical people and we might find ourselves more respected. If we learn to poke fun at ourselves then we take away the opportunity for hateful people to poke fun at us in a derisive way.
Question for thought:
If Diva writes at the end of one of the posts on her blog “Autism Diva Rocks” is it cute or funny?
If John Best writes it is it an attack?
You see it is a matter of perspective. If John is quoting the Diva then it is funny if he says it first it is derisive. In reality it is funny either way if you have a sense of humor. Maybe belonging to a religion that has been poking fun at itself for years to avoid being attacked by all our haters has taught me a lesson. Either that or I am suffering from an overdose of green jell-o one (good Mormon humor there). The point is we need to lighten up and remember what we adults are trying to accomplish here. We are trying to make this a better world for our children and our grandchildren. We can’t do that if we keep spreading the hatred and prejudice. We ask to be treated with respect while disrespecting the bio-med parents. Does anyone other than me see the hypocrisy in that?
