Not having your children vaccinated unless there is a good medical reason for not so doing, is borderline child abuse. You do not have the right, to endanger others because of some ill-conceived notion that “God” doesn’t want you to vaccinate your children.

You don't even see that it is you who are out of your mind. How are we endangering you? You are vaccinated!?! No, it is lunacy to put your trust in a government committed to population control? My grown children have traveled the world on Mission trips to the 3rd world and have never gotten vaccinated.

My family is not in California, thank God. You can have your Sodomite cities, your forced abortions, your unmitigated illegal immigration, etc.

How are we endangering you? You are vaccinated!?!

1) There are quite a few children with compromised immune systems (including most kids being treated for childhood cancers) who cannot, for medical reasons, be vaccinated. If you refuse to give your child the measles vaccine, for example, your kid could easily kill one of these kids. That's beyond irresponsible and borderline evil.

2) The second reasons is a little harder to understand but just as important. No vaccine is 100% effective in preventing infection. However they can eliminate a disease in a community by significantly reducing each person's odds of catching a disease. It's a concept called herd immunity - each individual may or may not be completely immune but the population is immune. Once a sizable number of parents stop vaccinating their kids, that herd immunity effect goes away and kids who are vaccinated start getting sick as a result.
