Okay, I'll bite. HOW is having an Autism Awareness Week raising anything above their putative savior? Is he going to say the same thing about Black History Month or any other holiday or event which notes an issue worthy of our attention? I should note that christers have both Lent and Advent, leading up to Easter and Christmas, respectively, so it's not as though their boy J isn't getting a considerable degree of notice on the calendar, never mind the other media means evangelists use to jawbone people into joining their ranks.
I should mention, too: I have friends who are on the spectrum, and they're good people. What Baker is doing here is what his kind do entirely too often: PUNCH DOWN, something those people do not deserve. Sadly, it seems as though that, if ANYTHING gets attention that evangelicals aren't getting, they have to feel aggrieved and they have to lash out ... which strikes me as pretty juvenile behavior.
You should consider that many people with autism are not afflicted. They have a different way of seeing and experiencing things than we do, but it's not wrong. Just different.
A friend who is autistic and a writer says it's like different operating systems for a computer. I thought that was a perfect way of looking at it.
I suspect we already know his thoughts on Black History Month. I also suspect his true beliefs about autism and other "special needs" people involves demonic possession.
It may be related to their shrinking numbers. Evangelical proselytization functions like a pyramid scheme: the 'senior sellers' like this Pastor are always encouraging their 'junior sellers' (the teachers, parents, etc) to spend every living breathing second selling the product. It's not in their self-interest to recognize or validate their 'junior sellers' may have other ways to spend their time.
Punching down is what a certain class of so-called Christian simply loves to do. Its intent is to make the puncher greater than he is.
It's sort of like the Christian passion for sin leveling. The point is not to bring your minor sins up to the level of my great ones, but my big sins down to the level of your minor ones.
It definitely has that 'let them eat cake' feel to it, doesn't it? Privileged dude telling less privileged folk 'I don't spend any time on that problem, so you shouldn't need to either.'
You would almost think that it doesn't matter to him because it doesn't matter to him, and it will never matter to him until it does, so you might as well give him your money.
Hey Matt, please tell me why Easter falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon after the spring solstice. When you and your follower's beliefs are based in superstition, I guess you can say anything you want and make it true. The gullible will swoon. What an asshat.
Jesus was a werewolf. If it were held on the full moon, Jesus would have eaten the twelve at the last supper. It obvious to everyone, but like Elijah was a vampire.
My first job out of college was in Dubuque, IA for two years. On my walking commute, I would pass by a billboard saying seizures are not demonic possession. I was saddened someone thought such a sign was necessary. Looks like it still is.
If Jesus was real and anything like described in the NT and was around today. He'd want an "autism awareness week" and wear a trans-rights pin. Of course, he'd be dodgy about the causes of autism and such.
I think Jesus would say the same thing my mom used to say: that God created ALL kinds of people and loves ALL of them, and "think how boring the world would be if everyone were the same!"
"... anything that teaches our children to have their identity in anything other than Christ is idolatry and demonic..."
So recognizing that autism exists is idolatry, but deifying traitorous political candidates is 'righteousness.' Get this man a Treason Bible and some gold sneakers.
"If Jesus Christ led Trinity. would HE have an Autism Awareness Week? Of course not!"
Hey, P-ass-tor Blockhead: The distinct developmental disorder that's now recognized as autism wasn't known in the 1st Century CE. You know. Back when your imaginary savior was casting demons into pigs. Autism as we now know it was officially recognized in the 1940s (though Eugen Bleuler was the first to use the word in 1911).
And I just love the arrogance of Christians who seem to think they somehow know the mind of a person who allegedly lived 2000 years ago and can speak for them.
But who couldn't be bothered to write down any of it, knowing that he would become (or already was?) the omniscient, omnipotent deity. Yup, a perfectly plausible premise for a religion.
He said the media and parents misunderstood the message he made, but he clarified exactly what he meant.
“Also, anything that teaches our children to have their identity in anything other than Christ is idolatry and demonic. Let me repeat myself just so I am not quoted out of context: any philosophy, teaching, or program that teaches our precious children that their identity is found in anything other than Christ is idolatry and demonic. Period.”
Individuality is demonic. Conform, or else.
“"The word 'Christian' means 'Like Christ,' and it was given to the followers of Christ because they acted just like Jesus.“
Yup, that’s what Jesus did. He went around telling people they were demons because they were different. He hid away the folks who didn’t comport themselves exactly like the majority.
You provide accommodations for the students , and yet you refuse to educate the rest of the school about those students needs. Autism awareness week is not about identity for the children with autism, it’s education for those who do not have autism. If you feel this way, then don’t have honors society or graduation or sports or anything at all the encourages the students to achieve anything. None of that stuff has anything to do with Jesus.
I hope the school loses lots of families, not just the school but the church as well.
Baker sounds like a man who is genuinely SCARED. He sees kids moving away from religion, which is his bread and butter, and he panics because that's his livelihood and his meal ticket.
And this absolutism about anything above his boy is evidence thereof.
Why? The school board has no issue with his position, they’re not even bothering to hear from the parents affected by it. They’ve doubled down right along with Baker. The rot has already taken hold.
Some of the families have noticed the leopards nibbling at their faces and said they will be taking their children out of the school but I suspect the leopards will still have plenty of meals left at the school.
If nothing else, fools like Matt Baker stand as great examples of what reasonable people are up against. As long as a significant segment of our population continues to delegate their thinking to people like this, humanity faces a stiff challenge. Left up to people like Baker, we would still be burning witches at the stake.

So I can only assume if you have diabetes, you pray and don't take medication or insulin, right? Or if you feel chest pain, you trust that God will either save you from the heart attack or take you to heaven?
Of course they don't.
But this jackass is perfectly happy to punch down on people with autism or mental health issues.
I don't have autism, but I do have depression and anxiety and was told by pastors that depression was a sin. I was told I should have the "joy of the Lord" and if I didn't have that joy, then something was wrong with my "spiritual life". It was my fault I was depressed. I was letting God down in some way either through neglect or sin which made me feel worse. A rather vicious spiral of depression leading to guilt and shame leading to more depression.
This is the same guy who likely takes 21st century technology for granted, can't be bothered to see or acknowledge its presence and benefits in his life, then makes declarations like this, mostly because he's blind in one eye and can't see well out of the other.
Mostly because of the planks he won't think to remove from them, while complaining about the specks in others' eyes.
Sponge on a stick is too Roman for the disciple of an alleged Jewish rabbi from 2000 years ago. You can as well ask him to cut his hair and shav... Wait a minute...
I don't know if that's the cause or result of this culture's dismissal of mental illness as not a 'real' illness. We constantly treat mental health as different from physical health, especially insurance companies. It's disgusting.
My psychiatrist gave me TMS treatment pro-bono. I don't know why and I don't think it was fair to all those people who had to pay for it, but I am grateful ze did. It's the closest thing to a miracle I've ever seen. Certainly more than I've ever seen prayer accomplish.
I'm not sure it's "this culture" or just plain old fashioned human attribution bias. "I don't need the police to behave prosocially, but 𝑡ℎ𝑜𝑠𝑒 𝑜𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟 𝑔𝑢𝑦𝑠 do" very easily translates into "I'm not faking it about my internal mind-states, but 𝑡ℎ𝑜𝑠𝑒 𝑜𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟 𝑔𝑢𝑦𝑠 are", particularly since we can't see mind-states.
Some really quick Google research shows me that it may be that 1 in 36 people are on the spectrum, yet people with autism are more under-represented than atheists are. This is not really a surprise as those with autism are unlikely to excel as politicians due to the nature of autism. There are way too many politicians who want to legislate against anything they find is different, most of the time while using their religion as justification for their bigotry. The good news is that many of the kids coming up to take over are much more open to the differences that made the United States united. Until we get rid of religion altogether, these people are still going to exist. Right now the single most important thing we can do is vote blue!
Even if it weren't cloudy here, I'd still see nothing. I guess Marjorie Traitor Greene doesn't grok the fact that her god's 'warning' doesn't cover absolutely everything worldwide. Low-budget deity.
Hubs is in Spokane right now, he texted me that he saw about 30% and it’s already done. I’ve been poking my head out, it’s my lunch time, and seen at least that much already. The skies are pretty clear so far.
It currently looks like a child’s drawing of a crescent moon.
Spent the entire thing stuck in a meeting. With the cloud cover there wasn't much to see except the darkness, but it would have been nice to see what there was to see.
And just down US 63 from Iowa I will have 100% totality and clear skies from my front porch on Crowley's Ridge. So, it seems their god has a special warning for us here in the Midsouth bible belt!
Oh I’m 100 miles from 100% totality. That’s probably why I’m an Atheist with a gay son, who’s also on the spectrum and has ADHD. Most of that is his fault, he declared he was an Atheist in 6th grade. 🙄
If Jesus led Trinity, or was just more influential in general, he might declare a clueless troglodyte pastor awareness week, out of love and pity for those who qualify.

WWJD? Supposedly, he would heal people with various afflictions. Sounds like that ain’t happening.
You should consider that many people with autism are not afflicted. They have a different way of seeing and experiencing things than we do, but it's not wrong. Just different.
A friend who is autistic and a writer says it's like different operating systems for a computer. I thought that was a perfect way of looking at it.
I suspect we already know his thoughts on Black History Month. I also suspect his true beliefs about autism and other "special needs" people involves demonic possession.
So if they develop a test that would recognize autism in a fetus, would he support aborting a demonically possessed fetus?
Good question. One you'll never hear him answer.
It may be related to their shrinking numbers.

it is a particular form of delusion, isn't it?
Indeed. That kind of delusion is dangerous. It tells the believer they are justified in committing atrocities in the name of a phantom.
