Vaccinations - The Fact The Experts Are Not Talking About

Most folks are aware of the debate that has been surrounding vaccinations and its possible link to autism. Frankly, I do not think that is the real issue.

Widescale vaccinations in schools began in the early 1950's. I was one of the "guinea pigs". At that time, while polio was an issue, other diseases were not so much - asthma was relatively rare (as was autism), diabetes was not all that common and HIV/AIDS was unheard of, even though HIV has been around for thousands of years.

By the time that first generation of vaccinated kids reached maturity, all those afflictions suddenly began to spike, and HIV, which had never been able to afflict humans on any real scale, was running rampant.

Now consider this --- the human body develops a strong immune system by creating anti-bodies to fight off any threats. If the body never experiences the threats, the immune system remains weak, which makes us more susceptible to later threats. But vaccinations do the work for the immune system. Since the immune system no longer has to do its own job, it remains weak. And this may be the very reason why a disease that strikes our immune system (HIV/AIDS) is now able to affect us.

And it may also be responsible for the huge spike in other diseases, also running rampant since that first generation of vaccinated kids began having kids of their own.

Certainly, vaccinations can protect us from certain diseases. But is the price of the protection an immune system too weak to protect us from others?

Personally, I believe the only vaccinations we should be forcing onto our kids are those that protect us from a very deadly and debilitating disease for which we have no other cure, such as polio. But all these other vaccinations for diseases that rarely kill, or for which we have other "after-the-fact" cures should be outlawed. By reducing the number of vaccinations, we encourage the human immune system to do its own job, and grow stronger.

The Bible says what we do not use the Lord will take from us. Well, if that is true, and if we no longer use our immune system, we may be in for a long, bad ride if we keep using widescale vaccinations. Are we, in fact, saving individuals at the expense of the entire race?

I'm just sayin'...
