Can autistic guys be ordained as priests?

Yes, as long as they're qualified. Just like literally any occupation, ever. Now move on to the next question.

I feel like it would be a job that you're not suited for …I mean I don't know you but the priests job isn't just to say and live by the Bible. You also have to build relationships and LEAD.

You're better off talking to a vocations director or a priest, I don't think there is a clear cut answer other than its possible as >>757243 has shown

I couldn't find anything pro-sodomy on his Twitter, but hes definitely pro-life, and hes a priest, so he almost certainly isn't.

Out of curiosity, is there anything in Christianity, it's history, theology, or any denomination that talks about autism?

Interesting, thank you. Though I see he lived before autism was really known. If I can ask for more, is there anything where a priest or theologian or somebody specifically talks about autism? Or mental health in general.

Yeah, sure. Look at Fr Mike Schmitz.

Maybe they're better suited as monks?

>As noted below, speaking was said to be generally "painful" for St. Thorlak, but one wonders about his motive (or his extreme anxiety / autism overload?) in not speaking during the campaign process.
