I just saw this.

Thank you, Ladislaus!

If you would just pray 3 Hail Mary's for Our Lady to shelter my son and console him, I would never forget it (and neither would Jesus).

It was buried in another thread (deliberately), but I mentioned that I never disliked you: We just have competing views in a couple areas, and I like to be right.  When I'm up against another knowledgeable man who contradicts me, I am prone to crossing the line (unfortunately) from time to time.  But I always liked you, or I would not have paid so much attention to your posts.

Matthew and I were also at eachother's throats a year or so ago, and long after things had died down, I told him in a phone call that I always viewed him as a brother, with whom I have experienced a special time (Winona), and whatever may have been the vigor of my arguments, I never had anything personal against him (quite the contrary, actually).

I mention that only so that he can verify it, and that therefore you may also believe my words to you are genuine as well.

But back on topic, yes, liberal society is the most heartless society known to history: It hasn't the concept of supernatural charity.

I know you weren't talking to me, but I will pray for him as well.  As I've mentioned on this forum, I have aspergers myself so I can relate somewhat.  Don't know if you've said how serious your son's case is.  

Hi Byz-

Thank you so much.

I also owe you an apology, for my comments directed to you when you first joined.

I have no shame in begging prayers for my son, and if you have the magnanimity to offer them, then I am much edified.

Regarding the seriousness of his case, he is completely disabled.

He will be with us his whole life, and God willing, his siblings will care for him when we are gone.

It happened a couple weeks after he received his 2-yr vaccines.  We shouldn’t have gotten them.  Difficult birth and car accident in vitro, so could be couple other causes too.  

But the timing is suspicious.

Anyway, he has been a blessing, and despite all the rough edges you (all) will see, he has made me quite a bit softer.

Anyway, glad you checked in, and jogged my memory to apologize.

I really appreciate the apology.  No worries.
Mine is comparatively more mild, but it still has substantial effects.  It took me till last year (I am 25) to get my drivers license due to coordination issues.  I’ve got chronic depresssion too, which often goes hand in hand.

I just saw this.

Thank you, Ladislaus!

Of course, Sean.  Same here.  I just believe what I believe and write what I think.  Among men, such disagreements are not personal.  That's a major difference between men and women, and why women are not designed for competition.  I had 3 brothers, and we'd occasionally get into knock-down-drag-out physical confrontations (fist fights), but 5 minutes later we're sitting down eating ice cream together with no lasting ill will.  In fact, a man can actually respect another man who kicks his butt, and will merely work harder to make sure it doesn't happen again.  Women would personally resent losing.  If girls fight, they might hold a personal grudge for months and even years.  For girls/women things are more personal.  I could fight with you tooth-and-nail about some point of doctrine, but I hold no lasting personal ill will towards you outside the heat of the moment.  It's not even about you "liking" to be right, but being convinced that you are right and asserting the truth that you believe you have found.

I have a son also who is on the spectrum.  Not fully autistic, but still having a lot of social and communication issues, perhaps even a touch of schizophrenia.  He's not debilitated, and is what's known as "high functioning" (he's actually very bright intellectually).  I attribute this to the fact that he got a couple of vaccines.  We stayed away from the ones that were from fetal tissue, and got separate M + M + R (Japanese non-aborted-tissue ones).  But he got a few of them before we came to the realization that vaccines in general were harmful.  He also had colic and cried non-stop for a year.  I had to stand in front of the running diswasher (for the white noise) swinging him in his car seat to get him to calm down.  I didn't sleep very much during the first year of his life.  He's my oldest.  We stopped vaccinating and the other kids have no such issues.

this definition of schizophrenia describes my oldest perfectly:  "a long-term mental disorder of a type involving a breakdown in the relation between thought, emotion, and behavior, leading to faulty perception, inappropriate actions and feelings, withdrawal from reality and personal relationships into fantasy and delusion, and a sense of mental fragmentation."

The comment that "in the present social and political environment, a statement such as this, especially if it came from a white Christian male, could be interpreted as terroristic threatening", is just a paper chain. White Christians have to just break that paper chain. A Wolverine is respected by all of the bigger predators because he has no fear of pain and injury, a white Christian male is afraid of words or court? They are just paper chains.

No, a white Christian male is afraid of having CPS called to his home after he goes down to the principal's office and makes a threat such as the one described.  WCM is afraid of having CPS to come into his home without notice, late at night, either allowing them entry and letting them come in and take pictures of every room of the house, including his gun rack, gun safe, and shelves of ammo, or denying them entry and calling an attorney first thing next morning.  WCM is then afraid of being dragged into court and having a feminist SJW judge, possibly even a person of color and/or a member of a highly favored religious and cultural demographic (cough cough), hear the case, and a jury comprised of people from various identity groups that do not like WCMs.  WCM is then afraid of having his children taken into protective custody, being found guilty of having communicated a threat, being put on probation, and having to meet with an SJW counselor or social worker every two weeks for the next year until he is deemed not a threat to society.  WCM is afraid of having his attorney tell him "well, we tried our best" as attorney hands him the bill.  WCM realizes all of this could have been avoided if he had just chosen his words a bit more carefully.


It's a bit more than just a "paper chain".

This thread is proving to be a revelation of the many crosses members of CI must bear. My nephew ( 22 years old) on my brother's side is autistic.
Offering up :pray:as we approach the beginning of Lent for all of you and your families touched by illness.

If you don’t mind me asking, how old is he?
