1. They brought up autism?
I was avoiding it because GD pseudoscience threads are tar pits.

I'll check it out.

2. Oh brother. He's doing it to promote his website.
He's using tags to get attention from the Woo Anti-vaccine Brigade.

5. Can I ask you a personal question, Odin?
Not too personal, of course. :)

7. Has anyone ever told you that you were an indigo/crystal child?
Because of your autism, I mean.

9. I didn't think so, you probably would have clobbered them.
I just wonder how many other parents (besides Jenny McCarthy) think their autistic children are victims of vaccines and are also the next generation of humans?

Using their reasoning (don't hit me) if autistic children are indigos and crystals, isn't that a gift, something wonderful to celebrate?

Or is it the result of a terrible crime committed by doctors, scientists and Big Pharm?

How can it be both?

I wish I could be more like Odin.

13. You know, if the woos abandoned their crusade against vaccines for that...
I'd be all for it. At least they could then keep HFCS away from themselves and their children and not affect anyone else, like they do by spreading disease when forgoing vaccination.

19. Good point

Also going without HCFS will not actually risk your life or harm you, whereas going without a vaccine might.
