Okay, I cannot in good conscience let a mention of the Diptheria-Tetanus vaccine go by without mentioning this:
Okay, in all seriousness, can anyone find the WHO report (specifically where they explained how different areas differed in how commonly they opted out of giving their children the medical care they needed to not get diseases?) Knowing what I know, I strongly suspect that the more Islam-oriented areas might be the biggest offenders, given that Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Nigeria are the only countries where polio is still endemic, two of them are almost exclusively Muslim, and the few cases to appear recently in the third were all in a majority-Muslim area with large problems with Boko Haram, I think it may be possible.
Ever read Hitchens' God is Not Great? Fantastic part about exactly that, and how the (Muslims in Africa) twisted it to get people to be afraid of polio vaccines.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?
