Renaissance 0 – Middle Ages 1
The vaccination “debate” continues/exists. I checked, it is February 2015. This is the 21st century [by most calendars]
Another outstanding contribution to the public-health policy debate [sadly] by the Guardian US interactive team of Rich Harris, Nadja Popovich and Kenton Powell
In response to those that wish to open a “debate” regarding vaccination, I am reminded of the words of one of the 20th century’s greatest philosophers, Lisa Simpson..
Homer: “Aah, not a bear in sight. The bear patrol must be working like a charm.”
Lisa: ‘That’s specious reasoning, Dad.”
Homer: Thank you, honey.”
Lisa: By your logic, I could claim that this rock keeps tigers away.”
Homer: Well, how does it work?”
Lisa: It doesn’t work. It;s just a stupid rock. But I don’t see any tigers around here. Do you?”
Homer…hmm Lisa, I want to buy your rock!”
