“Mention her interesting past exploits (1994 Playmate of the Year, among other endeavors) and one gets soundly drubbed (look at some of the comments on an earlier post;”

I did not read the posts, which I assume were vicious. Christina the above is an ad hominem attack. It goes beyond arguing that Ms MCCarthy lacks credentials, a valid and germaine argument. The ex-Playboy bunny is meant to imply at least one of the following: Ms McCarthy is stupid, Ms McCarthy is immoral, Ms McCarthy is “white trash”, Ms McCarthy would do anything for money.

One can easily point to inconsistencies in the arguments, and lack of scholarship without bringing up Ms McCarthy’s life in a “warren”.

G.K. Chesterton , the gret logician and Catholic apologist once advised, You win arguments one needs to love one’s own side, not hate the other.”, or words to that effect.

Currently more than 20% of children in the country generally are not being vaccinated with MMR and in London and some other places the uptake figure barely reaches 50%. Many parents who forego MMR also avoid other vaccines so the likelihood is that current avoiders of all childhood vaccines is somewhat higher than 20%.

The Health Protection Agency is presently running tv commercials to try to raise uptake warning of measles epidemics if this does not happen. HPA should be open about the numbers of measles cases where the children were vaccinated and also about the ‘new form’ measles is taking suggesting that vaccines may be implicated in these.

Its not really that difficult to work out is it?

Hasty conclusions are your thing, Mr. Fryer, not mine.

Chernobyl is still a dangerous place to live.

The chemical bombs dropped on Vietnam, Iraq and the former Yugoslavia cause major health problems to people even today.

The chemical spills from various places also continue to give rise to health problems.

What is always difficult is first to prove that these incidents ever gave cause for concern one day later let alone two or three generations later.

Those with eyes can look at rivers, beaches et al and be aware that even where there is no particular major spill or act that all is not quite right.

The deliberate injection of brain destroying chemicals into babies vaccines and the continued use of such toxic matter with a denial that it is even present is surely enough to not trouble me personally but sufficient to affect the health of millions who are still managing to partly survive the holocaust thats happening and which many people on this post seem to think is an illusion and of no consequence.

When the people have children on the autistic spectrum I wonder why they dont jump up and down to stop others following in their own childrens footsteps.

The use of vaccines has improved but that isnt to say that improvements cant continue and to insist that mercury is out when its in is not forgetful its a deliberate criminal act.
