Feeling trumps reason, eh? In that case, I have a feeling I can fly if I believe hard enough. What do you think the outcome will be if I jump off the roof of my house in an attempt to fly into the sky?

We don't hope we are right; on the contrary, we hope the evidence is good and demonstrable. Only after that do we know what's most likely right.

Well lets hope their right, it doesn't bother me who it is, as long as they do their job in all honesty.

Good thing the scientific method is honest. As long as they can transparently follow it then we should be just fine.

Polio should be 100% gone in developed countries though, or did I miss something?

Should be. It's not. Where I work we saw a child who had had it a few years back. Eastern European migrant. We all shit ourselves because we haven't had to deal with pps in a child for decades! Nobody knew how.

What ever you believe, means nothing to me

Out of interest slice, are your beliefs informed mainly by what you read or by your own experiences? I understand that there will be elements of both, just curious to know whats the tail and what's the dog.

Hi, yes its from my own experience, after taking the polio Vac. I started to have epileptic fits which lasted for 3 to 4 years, I also know a lady who's son after being Vac. became autistic. And of course its from reading other peoples stories on their experience. All I am really saying is, Vac's are not totally safe, why on earth can't people admit this ?.

Why do we need to admit something that is entirely based on anecdotal evidence? (Anecdotal evidence is useless for a claim that requires demonstrable evidence.)
