1) I suppose you'll need to ask him. Be sure to post back if you get an answer. :) 2) Doctrine & Covenants 21:3 has unique wording that has been used to established the Lord's true birth day. The revelation came on April 6th, 1830. v3 says, the "church was organized and established in the year of your Lord." While nowhere says the Lord was born on April 6th, this is what some have argued is the Lord's real birthday based of this reference. Christmas is the celebration / recognition date. 3) While what you're supposing might be true, I think the reference is more towards a reference to his character. I am confident his level of responsibilities is above writing essays, debating, or running a marathon.

I think there are a hundred effective ways to study the scriptures. While I don't think there's anything wrong with your plan, here are some other ideas (hope they help). "Study" typically means you're after something. Pick subjects you want to know about, and use the topical guide or index to find references. Something else I've done is critical analysis of verses in the scriptures. I always start with prayer, read the verse, and write up my critical analysis of what I think it means--whether it's right or wrong, I'm just writing what I think. Good luck.

My nephew is autistic, but he's much too young for your kind of question. I have a co-worker (non-LDS) that might be able to talk to you on the matter. One of my former bishops is a psychologist, and knows the subject well. If you want, I can pass along further info.
