Hating Humanity by Opposing Science

People live longer, healthier lives because of science, Genetic modifications, Vaccines. Friends of the Earth and others who oppose such advances want you to die. Humans are a plague on the Earth

They don’t want to admit it, but we know it’s true. There are countless organizations that hate humanity enough to do everything in their power to put a stop to anything that might benefit it. Their focus is on the use of science to improve and protect our lives.

A recent example is the discussion over the need to ensure youngsters are vaccinated against measles. When I was a child, the great fear parents had was polio and, when the vaccine was created against it, it ceased within my lifetime to be a major health threat. Measles, too, went from being a common disease in my youth to where it occurred rarely.

Even so, some idiots keep spreading the lie that vaccinations can cause autism. That was enough for some parents to fail to vaccinate their child. In other cases, children brought here from foreign nations where vaccination is not as widespread as here can and do cause outbreaks like the one at a California amusement park. It is occurring in other states as well. A disease like measles exists with a life force of its own to spread as widely and rapidly as possible.

The Left wants a depopulated world, with themselves the only ones left.

There's also a hard core that wants everyone gone, including themselves. Human extinction.

Lumping those who have concerns regarding genetic modifications & vaccines together with “Friends of the Earth and others who [believe] humans are a plague on the Earth” is crap.

Wide brush stupidity and a truly progressive tactic in the first 3 sentences.

People do live healthier lives because of those scientific advances for the most part but declaring any opposition to be wrong is truly ignorant. Good science welcomes questions and debate or it becomes the same as modern global alarmism "science".

I guess people who oppose embryonic stem cell research are all just a bunch of anti human crazies.

[cripplecreek]

Its the same tactic the left uses to keep their sheep on the plantation.

[Ray76]

You were much more diplomatic than I was!

[Da Coyote]

I fully support vaccinations.

However, I also am uncomfortable with forcing those who object to vaccinations to be vaccinated.

Now, given that we perhaps have the right to restrict in some ways those who are not vaccinated in order to prevent the spread of disease, do we also have the right to restrict those who are infected with liberalism so that we do not lose our freedoms (and intellect)?

It's a public health issue!

The absence of a clear and present in-your-face threat is what allows nitwits to question the need for ongoing defense and vigilance.

Maybe some doctor or scientist ought to give a tweaked version of Jack Nicholson's rant from A Few Good Men.

Measles are a little different than polio. I was looking to see if I needed a vaccine and it turns out anyone born in 1956 or earlier are not recommended to get it. Why, because everyone born in 1956 or earlier has already had the measles.

[Dalek]

I also am uncomfortable with forcing those who object to vaccinations to be vaccinated.

If somebody doesn't want to be vaccinated, they're welcome to take themselves and their germs elsewhere.

Those nine words proceeding that last little blurb of nonsense and the last blurb of nonsense seem to contradict each other....

We do have the right to set the rules for who goes to daycare or school.
