| Message | Why should parents have the "right" to allow their children to contract preventable diseases? Why should parents have the "right" to endanger their children's lives? In this case, the "rights" of the parents are clearly secondary compared to the well-being and health of the child. |

| Message | Even tough we believe there are homeopathic ways (ie ideological reasons) to prevent diseases and such, we recognize the fact that modern healthcare has evolved to a level where we can not neglect it's effectiveness and therefore agree on this proposal. |
