I was reading one of WP geek's article http://unlearningasperger.blogspot.com - I did consider writing something like this. I think some of the advice is good. It tries to break the logical thinking tendencies. But to achieve success you have ,too surrender all.
Do you know a song called “I Surrender All” it goes like this
I Surrender All
I Surrender All,
I Surrender All,
I Surrender All,
Stop this logical thinking and surrender to Jesus Christ, Our Lard and Saviour. If you can become a good Christian and be saved in the process, you are an the right track in becoming a NT.

"Zant Would Be Proud" Award, or "Usurper King" Award. In fact, to avoid people not understanding the joke, just make it "Surrender or Die" Award.

Should I sing that to the tune of "She'll Be Comin' 'Round the Mountain (When She Comes)", or should I instead sing it to the tune of "Camptown Races"?
"Stop this logical thinking and surrender to Jesus Christ,"
Give up thinking and become one with the body? I don't think so.
"Our Lard and Saviour."
How is lard going to save you? Lard is bad for you.
"If you can become a good Christian and be saved in the process, you are an the right track in becoming a NT."
What's an NT? Short for nitwit? Or, do you really think people will turn into New Testaments?
There are FOUR lights! There are FOUR lights!
Well, OK, that was a pretty bad attempt at brainwashing. Wanna try again, Aspie_Chav?
Aspies cannot be "cured" and become NT (Neurotypical, people who think like most people do, for those who don't know the abberviation). current research (that I have seen, at least), points to aspergers being caused by repurposing the mirror neuron clusters, which normally do a lot of social interaction stuff. If you try to "fix" those neurons, you'd have to fundamentally change their brain. We don't have anything broken, just used differently, and we (or at least, I) don't have any desire to be "fixed", by God, Jesus, or anyone else. Please stop trying, and learn to live with people who are different than you are.
To begin with, those lyrics must belong to the most boring song in the Universe. And they're surely decontextualised. Second, logic is not something you can't scape of. It's part of the reason God has give to us. And be consistent. Don't use a computer, because without it, it wouldn't have existed.
Apart from the fact that I don't think God is a piece of grease, I am deeply offended by your comments. My former teacher's son has this problem and, by the way, he's a devout Catholic and has to take the lad regularly to a catholic hospital in Ontario. They're using all the media available, secular, in case you're wondering. I find utterly offensive and perverse what you're doing.

Dat's right! Dat's how 'T', done it. I opened up mah head, cleaned out all the bad stuff, the stuff that jesus wouldn't have pity on! I used ta box, beatin' up on other men. Hurtin' 'em. Now I'm a jebus warrior, now I beat up on reality. I used to act too. Bad thing. It put you in contact with drugs. And wimmen. Jebus don't want 'T' snorting lines off of no white woman titties. No sir. So I shun Hollywood. It like Babalonia. Or Sodom. Or...or...the Santa Maria. Now I'm only actin' for gawd. Now I'm actin' like a foo' fo' the jebus!
@Rysith:
Amen, brother! Incidentally, I happen to be an Aspie and a Christian at the same time, which kind of defeats this guy's idea. Of course, he'd probably just pull a No True Scotsman on me if he saw my comment.
@Dot Comment:
No. There are FIVE. *BZZT*
On behalf of both categories of people, I personally invite this fellow to step off.
The third line of the song is "All to thee my blessed Saviour", for any of you who don't know that song. In context, it means "I let Christ be the decider in my life."
Telling Aspies to stop thinking logically is to command them to completely change their thinking processes. Aspies don't tend to think with emotion; rather, they rely on reasoning for their decision making. Hence the high proportion of Aspies in science and computer-related fields.
The fact that this idiot is attempting to convince Aspies to abandon logic in favor of "surrendering all" suggests to me that he's not an Aspie himself, or at the very least doesn't understand AS at a fundamental level.
Besides, very, very few Aspies would ever follow any advice that promises to make them more like Neurotypicals. The Aspies in my life (including my husband) quite enjoy their differences. Having AS may make some things more difficult, but it's who they are and they wouldn't change it. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
My husband is also a Christian with AS. Jesus didn't "cure" his AS - just gave him some really good ideas about how to be decent towards other people.
(Also, I don't think he *wants* to be NT, even if he could be. He likes his brain.)
@Ellimist
The forum is called "Wrong Planet" because Aspies feel out of place in this world, not because of the extremely rare show of fundism. The name describes a sad disconnect and isolation Aspies go through. I appreciate that you were attempting a joke, but the name is more sad than funny.
@TheMissus
I have Asperger's and while I do have a logical mindset I do tend to be a bit more emotional than logical (I think) However,there are times when I can't locate my emotions, lol.
I'm not into technology, science or computers rather I am into artwork and such.
I am trying to find some online support for adults with Aspergers as there is no place locally.
No one, with any kind of neurological or psychological disorder can suddenly stop doing whatever is causing them to be what they are. It's like asking someone with epilepsy to stop having seizures.
I surrender all, I surrender aaaaaall,
all to thee my blessed saviour, I surrender all... your lyrics are a little wrong.
and logical thinking is not bad
What the fuck kind of song is that? Here is mine:
I choose logic over delusion
I choose logic over delusion
I choose logic over delusion
I choose logic over delusion
Stop this delusional thinking and start to use logical thinking more often instead of blind faith.
"Jesus Christ, Our Lard and Saviour"
They say its good cholesterol but it sounds like bad cholesterol.
Do you know a song called “Generic Lame Christian Rock Song” it goes like this
This song is lame,
This song is lame,
This song is really lame,
This song is lame,
"Stop this logical thinking and surrender to Jesus Christ, Our Lard and Saviour. If you can become a good Christian and be saved in the process, you are an the right track in becoming a NT."
No, neurotypicals are not that bad. And why would I want to be neurotypical, anyways?
"Our Lard and Saviour"

Thank you for admitting that Marc Riley (r), a.k.a. 'Lard ' is Jesus, then.
So a bisexual broadcaster - who is a rabid Man City supporter, and a former resident of the parish of the Palace of Glittering Delights - is our Saviour? Job's a Good 'Un!
Stop... Carry On! X3
@Madame Scarlet
As Lard would say, 'Ooh, get back in the knife drawer!' X3
@Tempus
You clearly read "Viz" Comic. b^_^d
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
