Right, so me taking a scientific approach being likened to "obeying Mr. Hall Monitor" doesn't reek of holy-than-thouism? However you come about your opinions doesn't matter, but if you don't have evidence to back it up in scientific situations then your opinion is not valid, at least not in discussion. From what I've read so far from you, it sounds like you're not approaching it with critical thinking in mind but just aligning yourself with whichever side you already agree with or that you're only critical of the side you already oppose. You need to be skeptical of both sides. Science relies on skepticism so that it can self-correct and advance.

I brought it up (didn't even know you had kids) because not vaccinating your kids is a form of child endangerment. There's no arguing about that.
