Belief Based on What Evidence?


Mumps is on the spread in these parts.

The contagion is being aided and abetted by Christian fundamentalists who hold that vaccinations are unholy.

The age-old question must be asked -

Why must my "rights" and safety be put at risk by your belief system?

Religion - that understandable human yearning to find a place in a baffling universe - has much to answer for.

I love to drive through the Valley in the autumn to pick up the scent of the annual witch burnings.

I had the mumps when I was six years old in the mid fifties. It must have been bad as I remember it so well.
Mumps can affect a person sexually.
That's been my excuse.
