Not the true Christians.

Some do. Some non-christians have a problem with vaccinations, too. There is plenty of evidence that vaccinations are the cause of so many cases of autism today. Back in the 80's, children were given something like 8 or so vaccines before their second birthday. Autism was about 1 in 100,000 children. Today, children are given about 20 vaccines by age 2 years. Now, the autism rate is 1 in 150 children.
I would look into it, if I were you. You do not have to vaccinate your child. It's not illegal. Don't let some public school tell you it's the law. It isn't!

The only "religion" that I know of that do not endorse immunizations are the JW's, maybe, I don't know. There might be more. But as a Christian, neither me nor any other Christian I know of have never gotten our kids vaccinated based on our religion, both of my kids have gotten their vaccinations when they are supposed to. However, I do know of one family who we all make fun of, they are not Christian that I know of, but they haven't gotten their kids immunized, they believe that the whole family should share the same bed, the kids are home schooled because mom and dad don't want them out of their sight, etc. Weirdos.

Christian Scientists use homeopathic remedies and do not want professional medical attention at all. Jehovah's witnesses object to anything that has to do with the transference of blood. I am not certain if any or all of the Jehovah Witnesses refuse a vaccination, but for the most part Christians don't refuse medical attention or vaccinations.
This said, I know many mothers who refuse to have their children vaccinated due to possible complications, not for religious reasons.

I hate getting vaccinations, but it has nothing to do with being a Christian. I just hate shots in general. I took the original Sauk vaccine for polio and it was just a sugar cube. That was not bad and sure has saved lots of people from Polio.

It's the fact that vaccines can create other problems that people have a problem with. If you read the whole story you will see that.

(so sorry to hear that lilly) you don't have to be a Christian to question the risks involved in vaccination. educate yourself on this one before you make the choice. I myself probably would have gone along with the standard innoculation, thinking they were "what is best" for my kids if thier mother hadn't insisted that I look at the research connecting vaccines with various neurological disorders (and I was calling myself a pagan in those days) .

No, just people with common sense do. So yes, I suppose you could say, except it really has nothing to do with the religion.
