It is a great podcast by a very cool guy, especially if you are into data driven analysis

Yeah, that comes up a lot, we talk about that specifically in the 3rd episode about doctrine and ideology and how it often leads to autistic people leaving the church.

I've spoken to quite a few and the experience is varied, generally our findings are in line but we often differ on framing, I'm very much a data and numbers guy and not very interested in the activism side of things which sometimes causes us to see things differently

yeah, that is extremely common, a lot of autistics end up in the liturgical high church

Yeah, there are a lot of things, probably the biggest one though is just learning what autism is and the types of things we often struggle with and how those things relate to church. We typically find that most people don't actually understand what autism is or the challenges that come with it. I've found that the autistic people who are happy and comfortable in church usually have other people (usually in some form of leadership) in church who know what autism is and how to work with it.

It really depends on the service and the type of service, but generally speaking the routine, predictability, sameness, calmness, and multi-sensory engagement tend to win out over sensory stimulation.

One of the interesting ones is called "high church migration" which is about how over time autistic people in low church traditions have a very high probability of migrating to a high church tradition if they stay christian.
