It seems that it is a fact that certain diseases are so transmitted. It seems the sheerest nonsense, on the other hand, to believe that illnesses are caused by spirits or demons. In each system of belief, the evidence however is overwhelming, and in the vast nature of reality both notions are equally beside the point, and one is no truer or more false than the other—a hard pill to swallow for modern man.

Diseases have been wiped out through the use of inoculations. In past cultures, diseases have been wiped out through the intercession of good spirits. The specific nature of inoculations, however, means that more and more become necessary in that system, for the fear of each newly discovered disease becomes paramount—and no time is given, in your terms, now, for the body to respond naturally to those natural conditions, and therefore build up a natural immunity, biologically speaking.

A child is quite aware of its parents’ beliefs, and quite aware of the parents’ and the doctor’s authority. Inoculations have great magical effect upon children in that regard. Infants carry a strong telepathic connection with the mother, which is not severed for some time, so that inoculations given the infant can work in that regard, even as a child can also be protected in other systems when the mother calls upon the appropriate spirit.
