Can't argue with it either. Don't know why I try.

Well you're a bad parent if you're not giving your kid organic only. And breastfeeding until they're 6.

Yeah, you're right, without a few infant/toddler elementary school age deaths we'll soon be up to our a$$e$ in teenagers, and we all know what that would be like.
Let me cite some history. Back in Victorian times the solution for sour milk was to add alum which got rid of the sour smell and taste but left all the bacteria. As a result hundreds of thousands of English children contracted tuberculosis, a disease with a high death rate. Was pasteurizing going too far with precautions with kids?

You've lost the plot completely. Do what you want, but why attempt to convince a bunch of internet strangers to take the less safe approach based on your thoughts and feelings? Let's be clear - you haven't offered one single piece of evidence to support your position.

Or get run over by grandma.

Saying it over and over doesn't make it true.
