LOL!!!!
The Amish also do not drive automobiles. Ergo, because the Amish have a somewhat lesser instance of Autism, it must be that Autism is caused by driving cars! Correlation vs. causation = fail.
OTHO, the Amish have because of their closed communities and close intermarriage have many children with rate and devastating genetic disorders, the so called "founder effect". Some of these Amish kids have severe mental retardation and a host of physical problems. And they didn’t get it from watching TV but “no one wants to even look at that.”
Try again.
In your eagerness for a cheap “Gotcha!” you missed the point completely, not surprisingly.
The vaccine alarmists claim the Amish as support for their vaccine-autism link. The correlation between TV viewing (I never claimed causation) and autism is far more solid than any evidence for a link between autism and vaccines, but the vaccine alarmists won’t even look at it. Even when it’s staining them in the face with the Amish population.
Why?
Because they can’t sue anyone or blame anyone if it’s related to TV viewing habits, which is completely under their own control.
