Important: He was not inquiring why she had an abortion. Instead he scolded her for being open about it . He was offended (he did say he was a Catholic). And so were the many angry comments on the blogger’s article page.

I'm not personally pro abortion. If you aren't, don't get one. I don't mean to condescend (even to make you tast your own medicine) but one of the strangest things I see about NT's is hatred of those who refuse to lie. She didn't insult anyone, just told the truth. Why does that offend your christian values so much.  I can't speak for her kids but I have Aspergers, I'm not "special needs" I've been taking care of my family (All NT's) since I was 10 years old.

I lot of them were doing what suited them, what they were good at. Unprogrammed to hide there abilities and talents.  I'm a guy that has Aspergers and It has struck me that a number of the women that broke into so called male professions had aspie traits at least, engineers scientist ect.

I came across your blog yesterday, and was taken aback at first, as it's so radical and outspoken - but the more I read and learn about you, the more I LOVE you! You are an asset to this world, which is full of stereotypes and constraints.
