FFS, they're getting dumber!
Put them through a few epidemics like those of past years and they’ll change their tunes. How many deadly diseases have been wiped out through vaccination? Without vaccinations the world population would be a fraction of what it is.
Just one hundred years ago one third of the world’s population had the Spanish flu and over 100 million died. My parents remembered that epidemic well.
We are spoiled.
Yes, and they'd scream ' blue Murder' IF they were to see their child/children come down with Poliomyelitis because they refused vaccination for it, wouldn't they?
It is sometimes staggering the amount of ignorance out there!
There are ever so many out there that richly deserve the Reverse Darwin Award.
@Triphid I sometimes think , as a species , we have gone into reverse as far as intelligence is concerned.
@Marionville Yep, I'd agree on that partially, whilst some of our species is securely riding the intellectual development train and enjoying it, others are back in the wilderness trying their hardest to 'flog' their dead horse in the vain hope that it will rise up and start pulling their covered wagon again.
Bull feathers.
Bull Feathers, Rocking Horse Manure, Chickens' Teeth, etc, etc, there are some people out there who are most definitely as ' thick as 2 short planks,' aren't there?
@Triphid Exactly, & they don't want to learn any differently.
@Lilac-Jade Yep, just as you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink, so it is that you can lead an idiot to reason but you can't make him/her think.
@Triphid Yeah, it is what it is.
