If no one knows what causes Autism or Alzheimers (and no one knows what really causes either one - it's all hypothetical), then nothing can be ruled out. I don't think that vaccines will ever be blamed for anything because they know that people would then stop getting them.

"The number of children diagnosed with autism or related disorders has grown at what many call an alarming rate. In the 1970s and 1980s, about one out of every 2,000 children had autism. Today, the CDC estimates that one in 150 8-year-olds in the U.S. has an autism spectrum disorder, or ASD."

Something is the cause for this. I know the number of vaccines has increased that children are forced to receive. That's why, imo, they cannot be ruled out.

And Alzheimers is on the rise. SOMETHING is causing this too. Flu shots with mercury? Pneumonia shots? Chemicals in the food? What?!

My Ma brought up to me the other day because I had forgotten, but when I was young we had thermometers with mercury and they had said to get rid of those because they are toxic.

Actually, specific claims which have proven to be false (like the autism-vaccine link) *can* be ruled out.

Wikipedia isn't the original source. The scientific method is the original source.

Angela, question. Why do you blindly agree with what Trump says 100% of the time?

What if he said an anti-Semitic comment, would you still defend him? I'm just curious. A lot of Trump "fans" seem to ignore the offensive things he has said like it doesn't matter.


She did say she supports the far right idea in Germany that they should ban mosques in the country. Kind of like when they banned all synagogues in the thirties. And she credited Trump for the idea.

One of the reasons why there's been an increase in the incidence of autism is because of this thing called Asperger's.

Autism in the 1980s excluded HFA (in the vast majority of instances), and Asperger's (totally)

If vaccines caused autism, they would have been a spike in cases of autism during the 1950s/1960s campaign against polio.

I'm not ruling out environmental causes for autism, by the way.

Wikipedia is reliable if the information it provides is backed up with reliable sources.

e.g.

Wikipedia wrote:
Donald John Trump was born on June 14, 1946, in Queens, one of New York City's five boroughs.[7][8][9][10]

In pure form, mercury is toxic. But that's not true when it's a compound. Just like sodium chloride is just table salt, but chlorine alone can be used as a chemical weapon.

Doesn't matter. Andrew Wakefield's research has been proven to be fraudulent.

Um Angela, it is a credible source when given citations and actual links to proof. The same can't be said for Trump and his "views" on science.

I have to ask Angela. Why are you trying to prove us wrong on a subject that we are correct on? I'm confused, this is a support forum and you seem hell bent on proving those on the spectrum wrong (that's how I view it).

Any sources which are peer-reviewed articles within journals, no matter where they are cited (e.g., Wikipedia), are considered credible sources by academic institutions.

A question for you, Angie: what exactly do you like about Trump? Not saying I particularly agree or disagree with you about him being better than Clinton and Sanders or whatever, since I myself don't know who I prefer out of them, I'm just wondering what it is you like about him.
