[QUOTE="Gahars, post: 4559020, member: 282323"] Because courts can make ill-informed, rash decisions - they are staffed by human beings as vulnerable to superstition as the rest of us. The Supreme Court of New York, for example, ruled that a house was legally considered to be haunted by ghosts - in 1991, mind you. The scientific evidence overwhelmingly finds absolutely no link between vaccines and autism. "Now," you say, "A test only uses a relatively small sample size. Surely it can't represent everyone." The problem is, this has been tested [URL='http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14519711']again[/URL] and [URL='http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16865547']again[/URL] and [URL='http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16555271']again[/URL] and [URL='http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15877763']again[/URL] and [URL='http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15364187']again[/URL] and [URL='http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14761240']again[/URL] and [URL='http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10376617']again[/URL] (just to use a few examples). If there was a definite link, it stands to reason that vaccine-caused autism would sprout up in any population. And yet, after years upon years of tireless, endless research (each taking into account a variety of different variables), that link has never been found. One test may be a fluke, sure, but when it has literally never been found in a properly conducted scientific study, it stands to reason that the link just isn't there. The only evidence for the anti-vaccine crowd, on the other hand, is entirely anecdotal or baselessly drawing causation from correlation. These people are the medical equivalent of truthers. From my experience, they don't want to face the harsh, unfortunate reality of the matter - so they invent their own and latch onto it. It's a shame, too, because they could use their money and clout to campaign against factors that actually seem to contribute to autism - [URL='http://articles.latimes.com/2012/apr/08/health/la-he-autism-obese-mothers-20120409']public health concerns like obesity[/URL]. They could be saving lives, rather than endangering them. While no one's questioning your good intentions, and I wouldn't quite call it "abuse" myself, try and understand it from another perspective.
