    I’ve never seen “religion” spelled that way before.

      Religion is just an excuse to justify the hatred. They hate the real Jesus and disagree with the text in the Bible.

          My point exactly. If it wasn’t religion, they’d find something else to use as justification for their hatred.

            Religion normalizes the tribalism and magical-thinking.

      Sounds like laziness leading to child neglect, to me. There are endless ways to justify laziness, no need to pick some specific one.

        It’s not laziness. These people are actively opposed to vaccination.
