First, there is a VERY wide range of autism. There is a LOT known about autism and all it's variants, unlike homosexuality. For me, the answer isn't a
simple one, because I believe that autism unlocks certain parts of the brain, (or connects parts that normally aren't connected), while it locks up
other parts, to varying degrees. From this, we get Savants who are geniuses, but cannot function in society as normal people do...I believe they are
gifts to us. I think, in this case, we need to do far more studies as to how we can unlock the locked parts, while keeping those other specially
developed areas open. So to this, I say yes and no. Yes, to more research. No, to gene therapy UNTIL they know which things to turn on and off for
sure.
Second, homosexuality is not proven to be genetic. My philosophy on this issue is more from an eastern approach. It is my belief that homosexuality
stems from a block 2nd chakra, and that is all. (Please don't flame me...I'm simply repeating wisdom that is far older than I am, and it's not done
out of hate.) But let me say this: most of humanity's problems stem from blocked chakras, period. Homosexuality is but just ONE of those.
1st chakra: located at the base of the spine. When out of balance - we feel insecure, lost, and never seem to get what we need. We
find it difficult to eliminate food from our body. From constipation and hemorrhoids to excess weight, among other things.
2nd chakra: located at the sexual organs. When out of balance, it can cause one to be terribly frigid or grossly oversexed. If
we dwell totally in this center we can develop sexual abnormalities. From rape to molestation, from being gay to making love with animals.
3rd chakra: located at our naval and connects to our adrenal glands. Gives us fire and power to achieve in life. If this
connection is not balanced with the sensitivity of our Heart Connection, then we become a madman full of rage, hatred, and greed. If this point is
functioning well - we fill our life with strength and vitality and feel alive. If not - we feel sick, weak, and dead to the world.
4th chakra: located at the chest center, and called the heart chakra. It connects to our thymus gland. If this center is not
balanced, we may find ourselves in a cold world of self-pity, self-commiseration, and self-denial. An overworked bleeding heart can cause
cardio-vascular problems and weaken the thymus gland, which controls our immune system. People who lack an open heart chakra also lack compassion.
5th chakra: located at the throat and connects to the thyroid gland, which aid in purifying the blood. If we always speak truth,
our words become true. It's called vach siddhi, also known as "the power of the word." Yogi Bhajan says: "The highest most effective energy on this
planet is the word." In a book called "Energy Maps, A Journey Through The Chakras," it says: "One who enters the 5th chakra becomes master of his
entire self." It's through our words that we command. It's through the element of etherthat we create. When blocked, the symptoms can include thyroid
and throat issues, among other things.
6th chakra: located at the brow, connected to the pituitary gland. Its actual name is the Ajna (Ah-jah-nah) Chakra, meaning to
perceive. Have you ever had psychic experiences like precognition or clairvoyance? What about intuition? It gives us the insight to see and
command. If we are fat, can we see ourselves thin? If working correctly, we can become thin by simple - creative visualization. It's the command
center to command all the other glands and chakras.
7th chakra: located at the top of the head, and connected to our pineal gland. It's labeled the THOUSAND PETALED LOTUS, because
each petal represents one thought. Our brain can produce 1000 thoughts in the wink of an eye- can we let go, and go beyond all the thoughts? When the
Kundalini enters this center of consciousness, then we go beyond all thoughts, and into a state of Indescribable Wisdom and Being - called Wahey Guru.
8th chakra: located above the head, it is called our "container", or aura. It extends outwards from our body, up to nine feet.
It blocks out what is negative and lets in what is positive. When Kundalini flows fully into this chakra - IT WILL BALANCE OUT ALL THE CHAKRAS - as
it comes back to rest in our Navel Center. At that moment, we truly become ENLIGHTENED.

I can honestly say, I have a few imbalances, so I do not stand in judgment! The 1st step to finding out if this is fact is to consider it could be
true, and then seek balance. Gene therapy is a moot point. The question is whether or not people desire to be balanced...it has nothing to do with
sexual preference. When we are unbalanced, we desire things that continue to keep us unbalanced. (i.e., unhealthy foods, addictions of all sorts,
etc.)
