    Just to address the ''personal choice of parents'' argument put forward by a few people in this thread.
    Would you support the personal choice of a parent who picks his kids up from school in a Boudicca style chariot with blades coming out of the wheels?
    How about the personal choice to send your child to school with a loaded firearm?
    Parental choice must have its limitations especially when it endangers other children.
    Vaccination against potentially fatal diseases is one of these limitations.
    Your right to a ''personal choice'' ends at the point where your actions endanger others.
    This is why there are speed limits in school zones, or maybe you think I should be able to exercise my personal choice to drive at 125mph past your child's school?

    Yes, obviously. An individual who seeks and gains knowledge would be purposefully educated.

    Again, what would exempt someone?

    This seems a pointless discussion and you seem intent on arguing to ignorance so I will leave you to it.

    Have A Nice Day:)

    So you have suggested that parents could be charged on the basis of your made up term "purposeful ignorance", but you can't talk about how you would apply such a law! :roflol: Well done!

    Actually...I have posted a poll on an internet forum to get input into public opinion on the subject, though I do believe the parents to be irresponsible and dangerous. I have also dismissed you as someone unworthy of debating for many reasons, including the habit of placing you own words into an opponents mouth. There is a cruise ship full of scientologists right now that cannot head to port because they do not vaccinate apparently and measles has spread uncontrolled....does that make any sense whatsoever?

    No it doesn't, but I'm not sure what story you are referring to. Anyway, you would agree that they shouldn't be allowed to enter the country, right?

    No, I would not. I would however place limitations on their travel until they are cleared and have them all tested upon arrival. Fortunately most scientologists stay away from those who are not.

    Please refrain from asking me further questions as the answers should be clear from my posts to anyone not ignoring what I have stated previously and you seem to be trolling.

    Your definition of "troll" appears to be: someone who scrutinises me. :roflol:

    Actually I use this:
    "
    Internet troll - Wikipedia

    Jump to Background and definitions - In Internet slang, a troll is a person who starts quarrels or upsets people on the Internet to distract and sow discord by posting inflammatory and digressive, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the intent of provoking readers into displaying anger.…"

    Though this is also accurate:
