You can't cure autism because autism is not a disease or an illness.

Autism is a neurological difference, a variation in human kind, we are born autistic just like people are born neurotypical. As Autism is neurological the only way to get rid of it would be to change a persons brain, literally changing an entire person. This is not only impossible but would be unethical, when people talk about a 'cure' what they often mean is genetic testing to remove autism from the gene pool - this is known as eugenics, it's highly unethical and hopefully never happens.

Autism isn't a disease, it is a neurological difference - the brain cannot be changed once it has developed, and even if it could doing so would completely change the individual. Autism isn't something separate from the person, it is the person.

Is there an autistic cult group trying to come up with a cure for autism and asperger's?

There isn't an Autistic cult group trying to come up with a cure for Autism (no need to say 'and Asperger's given as it is Autism, it's redundant), however there is Autism Speaks which may as well be a cult as they brainwash people into thinking Autism is bad and seek to 'cure' Autism. The only way to 'cure' Autism would be to eradicate Autistic people and prevent Autistic people being born.

Can history help with the discovery of the cure for autism?

How much money is funded to find a cure for autism?

It's impossible to say for sure how much money goes into funding for research into a 'cure' for Autism overall, but an example would be to look at Autism Speaks which is the largest organisation focusing on Autism in the US and is pro-eugenics* so supports finding a 'cure'. In 2012 Autism Speaks put $15,790,797 into research, most of which was focused on finding a 'cure'. * Autism is a neurological difference; it's how a persons brain works and who they are, as such Autism cannot be seperated from the person. Autism can no more be cured than you can cure being African-American, the only way to get rid of autism would be to get rid of all the Autistic people. In supporting a cure what people are saying is that Autistic people are worth less than Neurotypical people, or that Autistic people are broken Neurotypical people, and to support finding a 'cure' for autism is essentially supporting eugenics.

Can you cure Autism ?

There is no cure for autism, and hopefully there never will be.Autism is a neurological difference, a variation in human beings just like race. The only way to 'cure' autism would be to eradicate Autistic people, like suggesting to eradicate African-American people this would be highly unethical and would be considered eugenics. Many people are trying to 'cure' autism via pre-natal screening and genetic modification, hopefully this doesn't happen.

Will there be a cure for autism in the future?

Unfortunately organisations such as Autism Speaks are working on a cure for Autism. It should be noted that Autism is a neurological difference, it doesn't need to be cured and it cannot be separated from the individual so the only way to 'Cure' Autism is to wipe out Autistic people. A 'cure' for Autism would basically be Eugenics, preventing Autistic people being born.
