    actually, i'm pretty sure it was in boston, in 1721.

    the ownage i speak of occurred in the early 1600s.

    I know it was around 1721 when there was more understanding of how the vaccine worked but I did not know it was used then, thanks for the lesson.

    eh, you got me to look it up, so ditto. :)

    the point was that, while white people weren't all completely immune, they had developed enough immunity to survive, by being directly confronted with the disease(s), and that the current method of inoculation is poisonous.

    Exactly, immune systems in Europe and elsewhere in the old world have developed the antibodies to combat smallpox. Even with that though it was often fatal. Native Americans had absolutely no antibodies to fight smallpox, it's essentially like giving the flu to someone who's had HIV for 10 years and hasn't been able to take medication for it.

    I thought you were speaking of the epidemic that struck around the 19th century which struck many parts of the world not just the U.S. killing hundreds of thousands of people.
    Your right though Europeans did have stronger immune systems when it came to viruses they were more accustomed to.

    It took many many many thousands of years and millions upon millions of deaths to build these immunities, and there was only so much evolution the disease could do at the time, due to the limited number of hosts. There are over 6 billion people in the world today, and they're all a lot closer and in more contact, allowing diseases and their mutations to traverse the globe in a matter of hours.

    Unless you want to live like people did in the stone age (often, not at all) then don't advocate going back to the stone age just because the human species survived it.

    Standards are great, advocate them all you like.

    However, you do have to weigh the individual pros and cons of each situation, or vaccine.

    I understand that vaccinating sometimes causes "side effects". My question would be, does it do more good than bad. I think I will selectively vaccinate when I have kids. Personally i get flu shots every few years and I was vaccinated as a child. A lady I used to work with had an autistic child and she believes that vaccinations caused it. I'd feel safer vaccinating my kids.

    A better word for "compromising" in this sentence is "assisting".

    Can vaccines cause dyslexia?

    i didn't receive vaccines till high school. i also didn't get sick very often until i received the vaccines. this is circumstantial and non-encompassing evidence, of course, but paired with what i know of the immune system, our government's track history, and my intuition, it's enough for me.
