And not just that
Whooping cough is scary as hell
I feel like we are jumping around a lot
@The Gwench If we have the ability to eliminate a disease, we should, even if it's not as dangerous as say polio
Can we stick on what topic
I had pertussis as a kid it nearly killed me lol
@Bear. what are the chances of the virus reaching the brain?
Can I just ask,
That’s the right question?
Fairly large I think, not sure
Governments don't eliminate diseases. they control their distribution among populations.
There's more than just measles
Is there anyone here that believes in the vaccinations cause autism thing?
I feel like we are all debating the wrong eay
This is just the lounge, not civil debate
In Aristotle's Rhetoric he makes it clear that debate is to prove a point to an audience not an opposition
Not a debate
I meant because of the <#547645432604393482>
Just look at trials
oH you're talking to them
The prosecution and defense aren't convincing each other they are convincing the jury
Like that is linked to measels
/shrug
XD
For convincing each other there is cognitive behavioral therapy
@Hamburger Guy That doesn't mean debate can't be about convincing opposition, as fruitless as it might be
@Fading that's what I am saying
Question Of The Day #49
Is it against our individual rights and freedoms to make vaccinations mandatory?
We want to know what you think. Speak your mind in the <#484514023698726912> grin
No !!
Lmao i need behavior therapy
Your opposition will never change their mind
jump in vc
@Hamburger Guy my ex girlfriend was a very devout christian and through a lot of debate she eventually chose to be agnostic/atheist. It can happen it's just rare
@Hamburger Guy You can choose not to do it because of the low success rate, but it's still something you can try. I agree, generally useless these days
@Fading cognitive behavioral therapy is more effective
@Hamburger Guy Do you really think you should use CBT on people who have a different opinion to you?
@Fading science is not up for debate but experimentation
@Hamburger Guy Interpretation of results is absolutely up for debate
That should be followed up with more experimentation, of course
