Both of these guys have a better memory than I do! I remember a lot of facts and figures, but not to this extreme! :)

@Gutschiii Daniel Tammet writes about his own belief in God near the end of his book "Born on a Blue Day". Many people in the world understand that God and science are NOT at odds - and that the God who creates nature can also bend/suspend/disregard it as he pleases - it's His creation, and we have a privilege to live in it. I think Daniel also believes this, judging by what he wrote in his book.

Interesting in that it shows the power of the brain necessary to process social interaction, humor and personality and the like. Kim is probably awkward because that part of the brain which would handle being human is crunching data, just a guess.

Imagine being so smart that Daniel Tammet thinks you're brilliant.

@torgosassistant By that last message I mean I 'm not sure I believe in that in myself, in other autistics perhaps but eh, I have estem issues. Blah.

@torgosassistant I must concur with the statement that Kim Peek is not an autistic, still he did help raise awareness, helping many of us who are on the spectrum out. Also thank you for the compliment, now if only I could believe that myself.

Kim Peek's father is also very interesting. He's obviously extremely intelligent and you can tell that despite his age he's stayed alive and strong to take care of his son.

Would be greatly appreicated if this God talk was whipped off the planet once and for all and all realized that there is only nature and the difference of people is not a work of God or a miracle but only a different set of genetics happen in a natural way.
