Asperger's Syndrome: the inability to empathize because 'theory of mind' is a concept that has been physically mapped with fMRI to specifically NOT exist in these individuals.
Renders them incapable of forethought and consequencial effects of their actions and predictability of other's actions.

-- I wonder if you really understand your own question... Asperger's Syndrome is a developmental disorder in which people have severe difficulties understanding how to interact socially. It has nothing to do with the concept of marriage.
"Why would God create a mental condition..."
-- "For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life" (John 3:16). As a Loving God, He does not create sickness at all. However, he doesn't intervene with the course of nature all the time. He allows it to take its normal course. But out of the so called "misfortune in life" God makes something beautiful. For instance, if one of your parents have in the gene that sickness called Asperger's Syndrome God will not make a miracle and render that gene unblemished. So, it is more likely that you will have it. Now, in spite of what you are, your parents still love you very much, people around will realize that a child's defect can never hinder parent's from truly loving. Their life becomes a revelation of true parental love. Isn't it beautiful?
"mental condition that specifically OMITS the most important concept to marriage?"
-- God, even in the time of Genesis, designed that marriage be a union of man and woman so that they become one body (Gen 2:24). Jesus reiterated that in Matthew 19:3-9. The purpose of which is for the husband and wife to participate in God's continuous act of creating human beings. He does not mold clay anymore as He did in Genesis 2:7. Through the sexual act of a married couple a new life blossoms.
-- If God designed marriage in this way how can you say He destroys it?.. "Every kingdom divided against itself will be laid waste, and no town or house divided against itself will stand" (Matthew 12:25).

As others have pointed out, God did NOT create the disease (any disease).
I like the story of Noah myself... it explains a lot. Not so much the raining part and building of the ark, and not even the rainbow, but what God allowed after the ark landed:
Genesis 9:2-4 "And a fear of YOU and a terror of YOU will continue upon every living creature of the earth and upon every flying creature of the heavens, upon everything that goes moving on the ground, and upon all the fishes of the sea. Into YOUR hand they are now given. 3 Every moving animal that is alive may serve as food for YOU. As in the case of green vegetation, I do give it all to YOU. 4 Only flesh with its soul—its blood—YOU must not eat. "
People didn't eat meat before that time, but it became allowed. Adam and Eve were perfect and required no such nutrition but the further people got from perfection the more their bodies and minds would fall apart.
So, again, I must stress that it is not God's fault that such illnesses exist. It's the result of human imperfection.

and why do you think GOD created it? there have been many reports of forced vaccinations causing autism- which aspergers is close to. perhaps it is our punishment on society as a whole for tampering with Gods creation in the abiblity to fight our own diseases. seems like meds during a pregnancy can cause this as well if i am not mistaken.
pharmacopia comes from the word sorcerers. do you think God wants drug pushers when he can heal. we are paying for not having faith to be healed......somewhere down the line we pay. its too bad it happens to an innocent child, but the scriptures say down to the tenth generation.......

Eh, you're reading too much into Asperger's Syndrome. I've had students who have had this - they struggle with empathy, but they're fully capable of having strong relationships and of loving others.
By the way, this syndrome exists because of imperfection and sin. Its a consequence of the fall and unfortunately, one of a ton of diseases (many are of course much worse) that infect our world today.

God allows the laws of nature to occur. It's that simple. Why do I have Spina Bifida when no one else in my family ever has? Only God knows!!!!!!!

My brother has aperger's. He's only 22 so he's not married yet but I am sure he will be one day. He always has a girlfriend. So your premise is incorrect.

A better question in my mind would be why God gave two hard line choices, marriage or celebacy.

um, no. I have that and I am married and love my wife dearly. It is no different than any other handicap or challenge both mental or physical that exists in this world of sin.
