Or perhaps the majority opinion is held by the majority because that's the way most peoples' brains work, and we're generic sports that Nature allows for, to give humanity a way out of mental traps.
Like the prophets of old.

I personally donβt like to conceptualize myself as special in any way. Probably an American thing. We all want to view ourselves as self made people who pulled ourselves up from the earth and carved ourselves out of clay.
That said you may be right and itβs possible that neurotypical people are actually just incapable of changing the world or even their immediate environment.
Nah, you ain't special. Funny AF at times though. Merry Xmas A.Hodl. :P
They have other talents. It's not as if prophecy is always a pleasant occupation. Arguably the worst, of the talents.
Think of Jonah, who preferred to risk drowning, than tell people things they didn't want to hear. Remember what Christ said, about the thankless job of being a prophet.


The danger of refusing the label of "specialness", exceptionality, or being set apart by Providence, is that you are still left to explain the chronic dichotomy, and you will tend to accuse everyone else of simply being inferior and to rage at them to become more like yourself, even though they might not be able to.
God made you the way you are because He thought you would be useful for Himself and to others, by being that way. Humility is not found in denying this, but in acknowledging that it comes from Him and that it is meant to serve some purpose.
If you are a prophet, what purpose does your prophecy serve? Have you done all you can, to warn others? I think, we can never have done all we could do, and that is the misery and the tragedy of the prophet. Prophets perpetually grieve.
