re: #681 Sacred Plants

Well, there exists people who I go to just because they either know more about a subject than I do or have the proper tools to deal with a problem. Doctors are one of that group. Do I absolutely trust all doctors? No. Being an informed patient is much better for both parties than is being uninformed. You’ve got to know which questions to ask and what answers are likely to give you that warm fuzzy feeling.

As to vaccinations, well, when your kid comes down with a preventable disease that has him/her puking out his guts for a week or so, going deaf/blind, becoming a cripple, etc. you, as a parent must take responsibility for not taking care of your child.
