So It Seems the Anti-Vax Crowd

[Esquilax]

Well, we can't all graduate top of the class at Post-Hoc-Ergo-Propter-Hoc University, now can we?

You would think that's where some of you came from though lol.

I don't think you know what post hoc ergo propter hoc means.

People shouldn't be called crazy for being skeptical of certain institutions, and those who believe in the education of science should never respond with simply saying, "it's settled," or "you're stupid if you don't believe." It may be the case in some instances, but I don't think medical science has earned that credibility in the way we might say "round earthers" have (meaning facts that are basically established beyond a shadow of a doubt).

I hope you can appreciate the difference between being skeptical based on evidence, and being skeptical based on direct, total defiance of every piece of available evidence. The anti-vaxxers are the latter category; there is no evidence to support any of their assertions, while all the evidence contradicts them, and yet still they hold that position. Skepticism is fine, but when you have no reason to be skeptical, then what you are being is irrational.
