April 14, 2008 Autism

Comedy Central should be applauded for holding a terrfiic fund raiser.  Very funny; very effective.  And without the garbage of most fundraisers.  I think their writers took a break for Adam Sandler’s routine – more than made up for by Sara Silverman and Chris Rock/Steven Wright.

I think they were smart to focus on educating autistic children.  I know that homeopathy can reverse autism.  But I realize that homeopathy is not easy to find out about and it’s tricky.  And the psychological trauma of a “cure” must play havoc with the parents, not to mention the kids.

From what I’ve seeen and read, we can all learn much from this.  Apparently some parts of the mind are unblocked with those children.  They exceed genius, but in a fixed dimension.  The kids can teach us; but we don’t come close to trying to learn.  We try to cure.

That’s like trying to cure indigenous people from their inherent knowledge of sustanability; socialization and spiritual fulfillment.
