I mean sure your point is well taken, but your facts are whackadoodle.

All infants wore dresses in the early 1900s and before. Teddy Roosevelt has pictures as a baby in dresses.

"God himself" -> lol shut up. Tell me about Santa's elves next.

Abortion is a different topic and while I agree with you this is a shoe horn.

Obesity is a different topic as well because WW2 government ads focused on fattening up depression era recruits and we kept it / dont really promote more affordable options, and also doctors up until 1950 told us how GOOD smoking was for you.

Basically there's good science AND evidence for getting vaccinated, there is NO evidence for religious arguments, and religion and other health problems as discussion points are a) non sequiturs and b) not as clear cut as vaccinating for polio.

I think their God arguement was a counter to those who discuss thoughts and prayers, or gods will, or God will provide, or the Bible doesn't like this.
