Not to Vaccinate is a Sin

This should be in the debate forum. Besides that, it is about the stupidest thing I have ever heard.

 

Not surprising.

 

Just what we need, the government telling us what sin is. :BangHead:

 

Well, is this any worse than them telling us what it AIN'T????

Besides, where's all that separation stuff when you need it??

 

None of my children have received vaccinations of any kind. You see, everything in life involves risk. There are risks to vaccinating and risks to not vaccinating. And in life, we must make choices that make us most comfortable with which risk we are choosing. We made our choice and others made theirs.

I definitely don't like the idea that the government can force certain medical procedures on the whole population. I'm more afraid of that than of flu vaccines!

 

And NEWSWEEK, the world-renowned Christian periodical. And I'm certainly not going to take advice on Christianity from someone who says women pastors are fine, abortion isn't a sin, and othere heresies so frequently on display. My advice is to get yer nose outta NEWSWEEK, and put it in scripture.

 

If you want to have your child vaccinated, that's your decision. But there's no way you're going to get us to have our children get wrapped up in this nonsense.

And, for the record, we're not raising our children for the world. We're raising them for the glory of God.

 

I agree and what people don't understand is that by taking reasonable precautions, we can signifigantly mitigate the risks of airborne viruses.

But the way vaccinations work is to inject you with the virus, plus some chemicals of a dubious nature.

I feel much more comfortable just taking our chances with some common sense precautions than getting a vaccination.

I don't believe it's a hill I want to die on (no pun intended) and I'm certainly not saying that I want to subject my children to harm, but I can't help but wonder if the day will ever come when we have to do like the Jehovah's Witnesses and "fake" innoculation scars. I won't go into details about what that means, but if you've ever known a JW over 40 years old or so, you know what I'm talking about.

 

The source was NEWSWEEK.

Christians have the Holy Spirit to tell them when they are sinning. We don't need NEWSWEEK. And you have not retracted lies you have told about me, or explained why you called me a "bigot" so please don't tell me about Christ's teachings on how to treat others.

And for the record, I never mentioned the government.

 

doesn't surprise me considering where it came from

 

Having nursed children left profoundly disabled after being ill with a disease that had a vaccine, I wonder if those children have a case to sue for damages through neglect by their parents? The fact by not vaccinating can put others at risk seems irresponsible to me as well.

With the recent swine flu I was pretty annoyed when a health worker colleague came to work after being exposed to swine flu thus putting her coworkers and the critically ill at risk. A "typhoid mary" if you like, strikes me as criminal...

Just a thought, not an attack on your comments....just an angle to debate. If the government then has a public health issue, does not the population in your country end up carrying the cost through taxation, it certainly does over here
