The New Autism Dictionary

Last month and the Green Our Vaccines Rally, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. mentioned a new term in his description of Paul Offit:
Biostitute - (by.AWS.tuh.toot) n. A biologist who supports a company or activity that is harmful to people, living creatures or the environment in exchange for pay, fame or career advancement.
Today, in a comment on the Age of Autism site Kim Stagliano found the term for Offit's religion.  I have taken the liberty of defining it:
Vaccinianity - (Vax.e.an.eh.te) n. The worship of Vaccination.  The belief that Vaccine is inherently Good and therefore cannot cause damage.  If damage does occur, it is not because Vaccine was bad, but because the injured party was a poor receptacle for the inherently Good Vaccine.  (ie.  hanna poling was hurt when she came into contact with Vaccine, not because the Vaccine was harmful, but because her DNA was not to par or because her mitochondrial disorder was to blame.)  Vaccine is presumed to have rights that supersede the rights of the individual, while the human person's rights must defer to Vaccine.
 That Paul Offit is one inspirational man.
