Mankind is constantly trying to improve the way of life to further advance the society of man. God commanded us to use the resources he has given for the benefit of all people in the Creation Mandate. "And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth." (Genesis 1:28 KJV) Even though industry is always improving, it is not always for the moral reasons God intended. Vaccinations have been known to prevent numerous diseases and even save lives, but is one of the most commonly disputed and controversial practices in our society today due to the …show more content…

It is clear in our society that some vaccinations have helped to improve many lives. Many diseases like Polio have either been or are close to being eradicated.

The distributors obviously are not concerned about the health of the child, but instead they are attempting to fatten their wallets. There has been many reports of infant deaths linked to vaccines. If the baby's immune system is not strong enough to learn how to fight against the bacteria being injected in its body, it's immune system can shut down causing the child to be harmed. Many people have filed reports over complications and illnesses they have received after using a certain vaccine. Many of these reports have been denied by the company distributing the drug.
