Hey, Paul. One thing you have to understand about autism-spectrum disorders is that it's not a "sinful" condition. When you have some form of autism you're certainly a sinner, but that sin can vary, and it comes as a result of the circumstances and life experiences that autistic people commonly face. Some people, as a result of having Asperger's, turn to drugs or alcohol, or they get involved in crime. I myself was lonely and so I became lustful.
Another common sin that Aspies are tempted with is bitterness. That may not seem like much of a sin since it's not an obvious vice, but remember all those times in the Bible when Paul discussed not having malicious thoughts or unkind speech? We can also become selfish due to our resentment of people at large (because we feel misunderstood), or dogmatic. I know one poor Aspie on Youtube who isn't a Christian that reminds me of what I used to be--that same angry, dogmatic person who thought he just "had" to be angry.
But not all Aspies act like jerks, or at least they don't try to. We all have various sins and issues we have to deal with, and with God's help we can triumph over our sins
Rex of Lex is speaking from ignorance, as a non-autistic person and most likely having never met someone like me. If he got to know me he wouldn't dare make some assumption about the position of my spirit or whatever.
The Bible doesn't clarify how a person's soul "works" inside one's body, and I have no idea what kind of inner chamber thing he is talking about. But assuming for a moment that he's on to something, if my soul is just cloistered away in some inner chambers, then why do I have such a strong desire to make friends and navigate the social world? Why do I enjoy talking with the people on here? Rex of Lex is falsely accusing autistic people of deliberately avoiding social stuff. That's not the problem; the problem is that we autistic people don't really know or understand how it works, so when we mess up people chastise us (without telling us what we did wrong and expecting us to behave exactly like them) and so we sort of "give up" and often develop social anxiety.
God doesn't heal people of Asperger's or autism. The point of a relationship with God, as an Aspie, is for me to both be able to cope with and manage my social difficulties. I may not be the most gregarious person in the room, but I don't have to be shy. I may sometimes think too inwardly, but that doesn't mean that I have to be selfish. I may be "smart", but I need to always be reminded of the fact that I'm not as wise as I think I am.
Do you see what I'm saying, Paul? It's not the autism that needs to be healed or relieved from. It's the bad habits, thoughts and fears that come about as a result of being "too different", and then to show everyone I can that people with Asperger's can be godly people.
