Reuters is reporting today that a gene known as Contactin 4 may be the cause of many peoples Autism.  Dr. Eli Hatchwell of Stony Brook University Medical Center in New York recently led a study that found people with Autism have a higher rate of duplicate or deletions of DNA that disrupted Contactin 4.

Hatchwell tested 92 patients from 81 families and according to the article in the Vancouver Sun found 4 patients with a change in the DNA around Contactin 4.  According to the researching these changes were inheritied from fathers who had no previous history of Autism.

While 4 out of 92 patients is a small group - it is some legitimate science that shows that autistic people are born autistic - not changed into autistic people by immunizations or government conspiracies.
