These are the exact arguments I've encountered when talking about vaccines to our daughters.
They don't want to hear it and will argue with me when I bring it up.
I'm making a little headway with one son in law, though, He's starting to see the light about vaccines and even POTUS Trump. I keep praying about this.
"...The ingredients thought to be dangerous in vaccines are the preservatives..." - Not completely true. Aluminum is in vaccines as an adjuvant, not a preservative. Aluminum is there specifically to cause an increased immune response from the injection. Dr. Christopher Exley did some interesting research into aluminum in vaccines, and was professionally destroyed for suggesting the possible danger of these products.
"-Mercury, the most commonly referenced "toxic" ingredient in vaccines, is no longer found in any of the vaccines formulated for children. It was phased out many years ago." - Last time I checked, Mercury is still in the standard influenza vaccine in the US, although I'm not sure if children would be given same product as adults. For some reason they were able to take it out of the European flu vaccines, but not the American version. Weird. I have no doubt some doctors would give children the adult vaccine if they didn't have the childhood version available. Also, Mercury is used in the production of many of these products. It is supposed to be removed, but do you really trust these people to get that right?
Regarding correlation versus causation: The vaccine companies refuse to do double blind, placebo controlled studies of their products prior to licensure. This type of study is the only way to prove causation. They should give half the group the actual product, and half the group an inert substance. Their favorite trick is to use a different vaccine as the "control". They don't really assess safety of the new product, they just compare it to the safety of the other product. Then once they get the new product FDA approved, they claim they can't do a double-blind placebo-controlled study because it would be unethical to deny any child access to their life-saving product.

Thanks for the post! This will really help others make better arguments! 👍
Yeah, these seem to be the main talking points of pro-vaccine people.
I was hoping that if I could get people aware of them, they could prepare a response in advance and make better arguments.
It's a helpful list of arguments...thanks for posting.
