You were quick to blame Christianity for the spread of smallpox to native Americans, but not for the invention of the vaccine? Isn't that a bit of a double standard?
So explain why you initially pinned the blame for smallpox on Christians.
If you'll look back and actually read what I said, you'll see I didn't pin the blame for smallpox on Christianity at all. All I stated was that you're stating that their quality of life was better before they heard about Jesus. The natives who you claim had no need for vaccines certainly weren't Christians.
No, I never brought religion into it, that was you.

You mean the ones who came over here, and wanted to evangelize the "savages" and spread the "good word" of Jesus? Those guys? Funny how they apparently didn't need vaccines before the Jesus freaks showed up.
If you aren't blaming Christians for the spread of smallpox, why bring it up?
