[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why not research autism seriously instead of just going on feelings about vaccines? Or would that get too close to researching female health? Wouldn't want to do that!!![/quote]

Scientists are getting closer in identifying the genetic defects that can cause Autism, Schizophrenia, and / or Bipolar.  Why isn’t this this being discussed more and making this research a priority?    [/quote]

They can look all they want, but they won't get any closer because its pretty clear that [b]Autism is an environmental disease rather than a genetic one. [/b]All these scientists are doing is running interference for the real culprit. Basically its like sending OJ to find the real killer. [/quote]

PP-say more about this. What environmental factors are the cause?[/quote]

The cause is debated still, but the evidence fits vaccination more closely than any other single cause.

Exhibit A is that nothing like autism is documented anywhere until 1911, and it doesn't exist in numbers sufficient to study until the 1940s.

Exhibit B is rising prevalence over time since first discovery, being 1 in 30 or so in the USA today.

Exhibit C is the relative lack of autism in less "modern" populations and countries

Were it a genetic cause, it should be more geographically, temporally and culturally stable in its presentation. [/quote]

Nah, I think it is caused by eating organic. Very tight correlation. [/quote]
