Jon from the Christianity On The Spectrum Podcast | Both Christian and Autistic | Red Team and IR | Veteran of the Cyber Wars
Have you seen me post this Acts of Paul and Thecla fic and think "Jon, I wish you would do a full episode with the esteemed author of this important publication." Wish no longer, because the latest podcast episode is about Autistic Christian Fan Fiction. link below

Continuing on in my trend of uncomfortable autism analysis and after many requests I have decided to give a full accounting on my experience having gender dysphoria as a teen and how it feels now that I don't have it and have to watch my friends go through it. Link below:

Sometimes as an autism researcher you stumble on a youtube channel and just know

You may have seen this insightful meme and thought "Wow Jon, I hope you do a podcast episode about these weird nerds" and today your wish has been granted! This weeks podcast is about the autistic people involved in the inclusive orthodox movement featuring Richard Pryor from @earthandaltarmag.com

The reason that you didn't see autism "back in your day" is because the way you used to deal with girl autism was to send them to a convent where they all pretended to be cats

When looking for correlative causes of autism, it is often worth asking "Is this something that autistic mothers are more likely to do?" Does Tylenol cause autism, or are autistic women more likely to take Tylenol during their pregnancy.

if the episcopal church was smart, it would use the latest trump announcement for some sponsored brand deals

CALLING ALL TRUE THECLA PATRIOTS! THIS IS NOT A DRILL! Important development!
The author of the acts of Paul and thecla fanfic where Paul is a gender studies professor has recently dropped a fic about Jesus taking the raads-r at a sleepover

Have you seen my thecla posting and thought "Man, I wish I had stickers whose proceeds would be donated to the against malaria foundation", well, luckily the podcast has a merch store with many fine offerings.

Huge thank-you to everyone who has donated to the podcast's Against Malaria Foundation fundraiser, over $1000 (317 nets) raised!

This genuinely helps to support my podcast and work, and it feels amazing to see a tangible impact of my work.

I love when I'm talking to people about the act of Paul and Thecla and I get to ask them if they've read the AO3 fanfic about Paul being a gender studies professor and when they inevitably say "What are you talking about?" I get to drop this gem on them.

I still talk to this guy, he managed to solve this issue by getting really into dune lore and so eventually just stopped caring

Hooker's 3 legged stool (when understood in its proper context) is key to understanding anglicanism. As someone who has studied the english reformation for at least 5 hours, I can assure you that this is what King James had in mind when he wrote the BCP

The section which mentioned the DEP mentions it as a methodological consideration, and it mentioned papers that we specifically talked about during the episode which we pointed out don't actually show double empathy as they are expected, but other effects like in group effects.
August 10, 2025 at 1:14 AM
Also this relevant section from the conclusion. It looks like this systemic review does not accept the conclusions of the double empathy problem and is reaffirming other models of autism which suggest empathy deficits.
August 10, 2025 at 1:07 AM
Also, did you read the study? Because they seem to have come to a conclusion that would not be expected if the double empathy problem was a real phenomenon. I highlighted the relevant section from the discussion.
