OTOH, I wouldn't be surprised that people who have been observing
healthful practices for years, not eating bad food with chemicals and
preservatives might have severe reactions to vaccines which contain a
lot of crap in them. You spend years raising your kids to be healthy
and then you're going to abandon those principles to help big pharma
make money with "junk" vaccines?

Maharishi School in Fairfield is only one where less than half of
students are vaccinated.

Good points made by the reporter - like how can u have a religious
exemption when TM is not a religion!!
Those who choose to ignore the mistakes of the past are doomed to
repeat them.
I liked this bit:
Movement members say it is not a religion, but stresses "natural"
methods of staying well. Followers are urged to eat nutritious foods,
exercise regularly, meditate and take other steps to maintain their
health.
Yes, I can really see the world's viruses respecting their healthy
lifestyle and twice daily practise of meditation. Still, there's
always the yagya programme as a last resort.
Then there's the triumph of irrational thinking over common sense:
Leila Montgomery is one of the Maharishi school parents who obtained a
religious exemption to avoid vaccinations. Montgomery's 9-year-old
son, Dil, is a third-grader at the school, and her 18-month-old
daughter, Lyra, will soon start preschool there.
Montgomery said her application for the exemption wasn't based on an
organized religion's teachings, but it was sincere. She defines her
religious belief as "my ability to listen to my inner intuition."She
added: "I believe science is not my God."
Montgomery said her children never get sick, and she credits good
nutrition, exercise and other healthy habits. She doubts vaccines are
as effective as promoters claim. She said she's not overly worried
about her kids contracting diseases such as measles.
"I don't live my life in fear,"she said.
Maybe not, but she'll live her life in sorrow if her kids die of
measles. I almost hope these deluded idiots get what they're asking
for but a lot of other people will get ill when diseases like measles
come back.
It's an astonishing yet true fact, you may not be ill now but you may
get ill in the future. Maybe this woman is so brainwashed by her lack
of real world experience she actually thinks her children's current
good health is an indication of their future good health? I wish her
luck...
I also blame the prevailing stupidity of the TMO and it's "prevention
is better than cure" meme that puts having a perfectly balanced pulse
ahead of anything else when it comes to health management. Oh, and
eating seasonal organic vegetables. That's a big plus in the fight
against contagious diseases obviously [eye roll].
PS I think that "I believe science is not my God" is the dumbest
statement I've ever encountered..
