Neither was the polio vaccine, but it saved countless lives. The fact is
that there exists things like rape and incest, which has nothing to do
with abstinence:

In part...

Somewhere in America, a woman is raped every 2 minutes, according to the
U.S. Department of Justice.
In 1995, 354,670 women were the victims of a rape or sexual assault.
(NationalCrime Victimization Survey. Bureau of Justice Statistics, U.S.
Department of Justice, 1996.)
Over the last two years, more than 787,000 women were the victim of a
rape or sexual assault. (National Crime Victimization Survey. Bureau of
Justice Statistics, U.S.Department of Justice, 1996.)
The FBI estimates that 72 of every 100,000 females in the United States
wereraped last year. (Federal Bureau of Investigation, Uniform Crime
Statistics, 1996.)


That's a weak argument to convinve anyone they should vaccinate themselves
with something that hasn't withstood the test of time...like I said, we
still haven't figured out the possible causation of autism from the MMR
vaccine yet and that's been well over 20 years...it's also a well known
medical fact that people who live negative paranoid lives, worrying and
stress filled, are candidates for cancer...so let's make some more
paranoia for tjem so they contract it for sure...let's tell them all
they'll get cancer if they are raped! Let's hav ewomen worry more that
they may be raped...God, this world is really becoming a very pathetic
depressing place...I prefer to live my life thinking positive thank you...


The polio vaccine is a weak argument? Rape stats are a week argument?

As far as MMR goes, there is absolutely no evidence that it causes autism.
This has been looked at over and over.

You still haven't said why it's a problem if there's an opt out for parents
who don't agree morally or on religious grounds.
