nothing humorous, artsy or entertaining here

Is it vaccines or irrational beliefs that you are talking about? It appears you have no grasp of either, IMO. Vaccines are big business, and irrational belief is small potatoes to these companies who get billions of taxpayer funds for the creation of their injectable toxins. I dont think Avraham would be pleased with these things.

The explanations could've been clearer...

If I may play devil's advocate here for a minute: "You're substantially more likely to die from having furniture fall on you (than die from a shark attack)." -- The conditions were not stated in the video. For example, are they comparing people in /general/ or are they comparing people who are swimming in the presence of sharks with people who are walking by two-or-more story tall buildings? And what about people who believe that the sun revolves around the earth while ALSO believing the earth revolves around the sun? Y'know, the people who claim they understand all about relative motion and the comparative complexity of orbital equations?

About those European studies

Steve, are you referring to this one--> "Lancet Renounces Study Linking Autism And Vaccines"?

(5) Steve, February 18, 2011 2:42 AM

Was this about lies or about vaccinations? And what about those parents who had a normal child and they got their vaccines and the next day where autistic and now Mom and Dad are actively involved in letting people know what is going on? Oh and what about all the studies done in Europe on this, oh right they don't count. Sorry.

Excellent Video!..

Just look at the case of the "Mavi Marmara", the so-called "aid ship", for example.. The "world" in general considered the IDF to be the guilty party in the matter, after listening to the lies circulated by various anti-Israel sources.. Then came the video PROOF that Israel was NOT the guilty party at all, but by then the original lie had taken root within many, and shifting that initial lie has proven to be very difficult indeed.. People so very often would rather continue to believe the lie than accept the truth, even if it is staring them in the face, especially if it profits their hidden agendas.. Shalom.. Keith.. :)
