2011.03.05 Q'uo on Vaccines

[flofrog]

I agree with much you have to say about using discernment and trusting that regardless of what happens all is well. At the end of the day, I personally don’t think the sky is falling; if indeed current vaccines are somewhat unsafe as I believe is likely, it’s not something that is killing or harming babies in droves.

Rather, it’s a small percentage of unnecessary harmfulness that we generally accept that is more reflective of the values of our society about how in all things we cut slight corners in the name of profit and expediency, and then realize decades later what has happened (ozone layer, climate change, roundup, heavy metals/arsenic contamination of groundwater and rice due to chemical usage, plastic pollution in the ocean, etc).

Xise, I am like you incredibly moved by the issue of vaccines. I already was prettty questioning it when I was a young mum. I completely agree that the concept of vaccine is a sound and needed one, after all Pasteur saved many

It is just that knowing that vaccine manufacturers have total immunity is a horrific thing, philosophically and pragmatically.

My daughter has a nine months old baby and she is adamant that he will get all vaccines he can ingest. Benevolent intentions are sure in order.
