And folks thinking the two are similar is a lot of what's wrong with our country today.
So when the government says you cant teach creationism in science class, that is bad because its people telling others what is right and wrong. When the government says you have to get vaccinated to go to school, then the government is doing the right thing?
is certifiably bug fuck crazy, and can keep her precious Typhoid Mary away from my children/grandkids.“Disease is pestilence,” Ms. Check said, “and pestilence is from the devil. The devil is germs and disease, which is cancer and any of those things that can take you down. But if you trust in the Lord, these things cannot come near you.”
Not often that a cheer rulings from the courts, but in this case, I absolutely approve!
The Supreme Court, Judge Kuntz wrote in his ruling, has strongly suggested that religious objectors are not constitutionally exempt from vaccinations.

Wondering how many people posting in this thread have gone to work sick?
Hypocrite much?
if I miss a day of work I will not be able to make my house or car payment.
Because going to work "sick", where those you could infect someone who might be out a few days and be absolutely no worse for the wear, is not the same thing spreading polio, where a lifetime of not walking awaits. Turd.
You have a shit job, find another one where they give you a certain amount of paid days for sick leave. Most jobs including many part-time ones include said benefit.
My issue is people who live by one set of rules, but want others to live by a different set of rules.
From the linked article,
In other words, the government can tell people what they must do to their bodies.
This is one step from other crimes against humanity such as forced sterilizations.
We need to be careful when the government has the right to enforce certain medical procedures up its citizens.
So, to be clear, you argument is that since we do one wrong thing, that endangers the lives our our co-workers, we should do the other thing wrong, and endanger the lives of our children, as well? Just to be consistent?
Yes we need to be careful.
Sterilizations =/ to vaccinations. They're not in the same ballpark, solar system or frankly universe.
How many cases of polio were reported in the United States last year?
The linked article in the opening post was talking about chicken pox.
Somehow in your mind chicken pox = polio?
If you are sick stay home.
It is not a matter of sterilizations vs vaccinations, the government is using the same laws and logic to justify both.
If the government has the right to tell you to take this shot, what else can they do? Maybe force everyone below a certain IQ to be sterilized? Oh, we already did that.
No, the government is forced by the stupidity of others the control their ridiculous behavior for the benefit of those in the majority who believe they are imbeciles. What I don't like is being forced to apply government authority, when the kind of stupidity such people should have been prevented by liberal education. I don't like being a nanny to imbeciles. It is inexcusable that we allow so many to be so ignorant with all the resources we have. Most people look down on idiots like this Mother and Jobs, but I have sympathy for them. Our culture creates people who can't intelligently assess risk.

Do we have the right to control our bodies? Yes or no? There is no maybe, or sometimes, or this or that. We have a basic human right to decide what we put in our bodies.
I'll make that argument right next to you, but I will not say that if you choose to go to work you should send your kids to school as well. Two wrongs don't make a right.If you are sick stay home.

We have a right to control what we do with our bodies up until the point where we may negatively impact someone else.
That slope is not as slippery as you are trying to make it out. The Government also tells me I can't drink and drive, is that leading to my forced sterilization? They are the same argument, the Government is telling me what I can do with my body.
Drinking and driving is not the same as diseases.
then surly you must also argue that you have the absolute right to put something in your body and then do something causes danger to others because of it.
When are we going to start sterilizing people on welfare?
I am getting tired of supporting them.
Drinking and driving is not the same as diseases.
So it is a matter of degrees? Like the difference between vaccinations and sterilizations?Chicken pox is not even close to drinking and driving.
Does the government tell you have to drink? Are you punished because you do not drink?
Chicken pox is not even close to drinking and driving.
Does the government tell you have to drink? Are you punished because you do not drink?
It is the same argument in inverse. The government tells me I can't drink. I am punished because when I do drink.
What what? This became a Texashiker anti-vaccination Straw Man thread?

I am shocked. Shocked!
