Subject: Black Sheep

I feel out-of-place in my family. I can't drive, I have autism, and I have to be in the slow lane. Why does this happen to me? I'm thinking about seeing a Fortune-Teller or a Faith-Healer.

You have autism? Cool. My son does, too, but he isn't as verbal as you. Instead of looking at what you can't do take a look at the things you can, heck I know lots of people who can't drive, some who do and shouldn't, and I would guess alot of the people here feel out of place. Forget the fortune teller faith healer stuff, if it worked the world would be alot less interesting because they would make everything the same.

Amen. However bad you may think your life is, handing your money over to someone who's lying to you isn't gonna solve any of your problems. Besides, we have politicians to do that!
For a more optimistic take on why people are better off avoiding pseudoscience, you can't beat Carl Sagan's Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark.
