#53 Vaccines and the Inevitable Hypocrisies of Scientific Moralism

We must consistently seek to honor the Lord in our medical and nutritional choices. But, this is an era of increasing judgmentalism toward those who make different choices than we make. Some Christians are arranging anti-vaccine protests. There are quick to judge accusations on how a mother ought to feed her baby, or what is the best nutritional choice for the family. Since science is always discovering and exploring, we must be slow and sympathetic to the different decisions others make.
