How I Feel About the Vaccine

In contemporary society, doctors & scientists for example, are considered to be experts in that they hold a body of dominant knowledge that is on the whole, inaccessible to the layman. How I feel about the vaccine, its nobodies business When I look around I find tons of brainers on the subject Half of them scientific experts who know it all (yes) 100% Half of them scientific experts who know it all (no) 100% Just like politics and religion now we have a 3rd subject that has become taboo I rather focus on a cure for the world at large stay positive, don't pound your opinion on either side "They say never throw away a Layman" was originally used to distinguish between non-clerical people and the clergy. It soon was used to distinguish non-professionals from professionals in a field (such as law or medicine). In a similar fashion the collective noun "laity" originally referred to non-clerical people, but came to also mean "persons not of a particular Profession. In my opinion, most of us can be considered layman so why are we so quick to act as Doctors or Shamans How do I feel about the vaccine is an opinion too costly to say these days you got it ? you didn't ? you ! gamma rays ! I'm in a daze

Quite true! Families would still be enjoying diptheria, rubella, polio, syphilis, and whooping cough if they let God determine the outcome!

Rico...you've said it like it is! If my parents had resisted vaccines when I was a lad, I might not be here at all. Just sayin'.

I'd like to agree wholeheartedly with you, Mystic Rose Rose, but I can't. The opinion of others that are harmful to society at-large, I'm sorry, but I cannot respect those opinions. I probably should go further, but I'll withhold my opinion beyond what I've just indicated.
