(33,688 posts)The best science indicates that there is a structural difference in the way the brains of those of us on the spectrum are wired - literally in the physical matter of the brain. Which means it is almost certainly genetic. I've read some significant English research that indicates we Aspies do not have the same concentration of mirror neurons in the brain.

Wakefield's study was fraudulent. Jenny McCarthy is an idiot.
You can be mad, but that doesn't change the truth. Sure, you can find a study here or there that shows a link between vaccines and autism.
A 95% confidence means 5% of studies get it wrong. Pointing at only these studies is cherry-picking and it is unscientific. The truth is vaccines save lives.
The literature has shown this over and over again. -->

I mis-entered the link so the first few people didn't see it.
But you can tell the people who tried & the people who didn't.
I had seen that link the other day, so I knew the gag, and I got a kick out of watching people out themselves. They're probably the kind of people who interrupt others in real life with "I know what you're going to say..." This was a perfect demonstration of why that's just a little bit stupid.
