Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps. (Deuteronomy 32:33)
Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: (Romans 3:13)
Even when Scripture discusses snake poison symbolically, its literal danger and cruelty is implied. Vaccination is analogous to a bite from a venomous snake. Both actions pierce the skin and inject the bloodstream directly with poison.
In essence, vaccination is a synthetic snake bite.
With this in mind, check out below this portion of a letter to the English publication The National Anti-Compulsory Vaccination Reporter in 1878. This is a powerful critique of vaccination, comparing it to snake poison.
The author also discusses snake idolatry in history, which is relevant, as, vaccination, its man-made counterpart, has also been idolized throughout its history. Finally, the author discusses the tyranny of mandatory vaccination, the dangers of vaccines, and calls the vaccinators to repentance, whom the author says are on a “satanic mission of scattering disease and death.”
“V–RS (Vipers) and V–RS (Vaccination). To the Editor of the N.A.V.C. Reporter,” The National Anti-Compulsory Vaccination Reporter, vol. III, no. 2 (November 1, 1878). Excerpts below; topic titles mine.
Snake and vaccine idolatry
Permit me, at this crisis, to direct your kind attention to a fact or two which may afford useful lessons in the Anti-vaccination controversy. A weekly paper states that: “In Europe every means is taken to exterminate vipers, and in France a reward is given to every one who brings a viper’s head to the authorities.” But there is a country–Senegal, in Africa—where the reptiles are held in such honour that a Frenchman barely escaped being massacred for having killed one which threatened to bite him, under the following circumstances :—“A French naturalist travelling in Senegal, having crossed over to the Island of Su, upon the Niger, to collect some remarkable birds that built their nests there, was very well received by a native chief who had invited him to a meal at his house in a neighbouring wood. …
“[T]o the horror of the naturalist, a viper of immense length, and of the most venomous kind, descended from the straw roof and began to crawl towards him. He, terrified, sprang up instantly, siezed his bamboo stick, and gave the viper a blow on the head which killed it at once. Immediately the whole company raised loud cries, advanced furiously upon him, and threatened as though they would kill him. One would have thought that he had just committed some crime.(!) The chief had the greatest difficulty to prevent his being stoned to death.(!!) The naturalist afterwards learned that [they] regard serpents and vipers as deities. They treat them with the greatest veneration, and even allow them to multiply in their houses, even to get into their beds and to eat the fowls of their farm yards.”
Macaulay says “The old Britons, among other idols, worshipped serpents.” It appears, however, that they kept at a respectable distance from them. But the modern Britons, those who are called Vaccinators, worship, not indeed serpents, but a highly concentrated venom called “vaccine,” which causes far more suffering and death than “the poison of asps”; for with lancets tipped with this venom they stab and poison all they can “all the year round” for so much a head!
Persecution by the “venomous vaccinators”
[T]here is no denying the fact that we, or those belonging to us, are in constant danger of being attacked by these venomous vaccinators, who are, as we know to our sorrow, suffered to roam at large, and are strongly protected by our Government, who act quite as foolishly as the natives of Senegal in their protection of the viper, for, if we defend ourselves from being wounded and venomed, we are set on as absolute criminals and prosecuted according to law!
Lest you should think the above illustration far-fetched, or lest any should think it inapplicable, the following statement from the Daily News of last Friday (Sept. 20), may prove that we are not entirely exempt from such dangers in our own country: “Three young men, Mortimer, Forbes, and Gordon, were crossing the Downs to Amberley, yesterday morning, when they stopped in a copse for luncheon. As they were sitting on a bank, Mortimer was bitten on the hand by a black viper. The reptile was killed, and no further notice was taken of the matter. Before Amberley was reached Mortimer was seized with serious symptoms, and expired in great agony at a village public house. All three were engaged as clerks in the city.”
The sufferings of this poor banker’s clerk, the viper’s victim, were soon terminated, whereas the lingering torture of the vaccinator’s victim often continues for weeks, months, and years ! and for one viper’s bite many thousand venomous stabs from the vaccinators are continually inflicted. Indeed, I often think that the British nation is in a similar position to that of the ancient people in their plague of serpents, and that it is high time that we began to look for deliverance.
The “fatal results” of vaccine venom
We have to deal with results, and we are well aware that inoculation spread small-pox to such an extent that it was suppressed, and is now made a criminal offence; and vaccination is none the less criminal because enforced by law, for, as Dr. Noble, of Manchester, says—what, indeed, Jenner said before him—“The vaccine disease is not the preventive of small-pox, but the small-pox itself.” While as to its fatal results, Mr. Adair, of Maryport, states: “When from home recently, in Scotland, a minister told me he had buried, on an average, one child per month that had been killed by vaccination!”
Instances of the misery and mortality occasioned by these destructive vaccinators are of daily occurrence. What is to be done? Is this alarming state of things to be allowed with impunity ?
Repent, vaccinators!
I presume that your valuable paper is read by parties on the other side—let me briefly address these words for their edification: “Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape, &c.?” If there be such a principle as justice, your condemnation, though it linger long, is sure as the return of day. We know men who were public vaccinators who have been wise enough to give it up for conscience’ sake. Let me commend their example to your notice.
