    So I could make a case to declassified myself as an autist, because I am an autist, without any scientific research and then counsel other people for their mental illnesses and disorders?

    Dr. Fryer looks like an Elton John from a dimension where he became a psychiatrist rather than musician. This is not a negative. I think it's just a cool coincidence because of what they both stand for. That or Elton John is immortal and that was his previous alias, he even kept the "John". Mostly in the image shown @ 3:24

    It wasn’t a mental disorder by definition, They determined that mental disorders should be defined as having “regularly caused subjective distress or were associated with generalized impairment in social effectiveness of functioning” (Drescher, 2009).

    ​@@sushirice6751 that presumes quite a bit. What do you mean by "normal functioning"? Also, if a person is a sociopath but can function well in society, does that mean they do not have a disorder?

    ALL sin affects the entire world negatively. God said that sin enters the earth through man's thoughts, words, & actions. Choosing to sin against the teachings of God is not a 'mental disorder', it's CHOICE to go against the authority of God & become a law unto each individual self. The Bible is the Word of God who created all things, & the only firm foundation to which all things can be weighed & balanced. That's why God gave man 'his' teachings, laws, Commands, judgements & the historical account of creation. God put all these instructions in the hearts of man so that they are always aware of their 'choice' of serving good or evil, right or wrong, what is allowed or forbidden. Only sinners, who lie to themselves, & 'hide' from God, pretend they don't know the truth. Is God a liar? Or is man a liar? It is an 'impossibility' for God to create a human being with an unforgiveable sin, call it a hated, abomination, or then deny him access to Heaven. Impossible! God said, "Neither homosexuals, adulterers, fornicators, murderers, liars, thieves, gossipers, usurpers, blasphemers, nor idol worshipers will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Sin is not OF God; sin is OF Evil. God will not allow Evil into Heaven. What kind of world would it be if liars, adulterers, murderers, etc. designed their own flags, held their own parades, adopted innocent children, taught them how to steal, lie, murder etc., organized themselves into gov't. positions to change their crimes into acceptable laws, then forced the world to accept the accumulation of their sins as 'normal'? Would it be like Sodom?
