100 genes linked to autism discovered... bad news for future autistic children

www.telegraph.co.uk/.../Autism-screening-closer-as-100-genes-linked-to-disorder-are-identified.html

The article says "It raises the prospect that couples undergoing IVF would be able to select embryos without the mutations and prevent their children developing autism." So basically, couples will be able to commit genocide. This is sickening. Why is it that we are constantly seen as negative? Why are genes that cause corruption and greed not being identified and wiped out? Reading this has completely ruined my day and made me incredibly worried about the future of this planet. I can't stand the arrogant NT attitude that we are somehow "wrong" and they are right. THEY are the ones who gawp at rubbish like TOWIE and Made In Chelsea. THAT is the weird behaviour, not us wanting to feel in touch with our surroundings. It all makes me want to give up

  • There is something fundamentally wrong with being unkind to those who are different.

    We legislate against certain types of discrimination, which leaves others wholly unprotected. To disciminate on the grounds of race and creed is penalised socially as well as legally, it's non PC. Why then are we seeing a rise in bullying of disabled people or those with ginger hair.

    What we need is education from starting school onward, to ensure that difference is embraced. Then perhaps, those with minds more geared to logic than socialising would be appreciated for their tallents, not aborted because others will make their lives a misery.

    It is evolution, not mutation.
