[edit] Campaigner for informed medical choice

[dubious — see talk page]

Because vaccination is such an important topic, Miller believes parents are entitled to a full disclosure of all pertinent data, and the freedom to choose whether or not to vaccinate their children. Miller began crusading against mandatory vaccinations when his son was born. He discovered numerous[citation needed] studies in science journals that warned of vaccine injury side effects, and he concluded that vaccinations are often unsafe and[citation needed] lack efficacy. His dismay over what he regards to be the suppression of this information led him to become a passionate advocate of informed choice in health care decisions and campaigner for informed consent for parents.

Miller raised concerns about vaccine safety and efficacy problems well before[citation needed] such concerns became widely known to the public in the wake of reports of a possible autism epidemic. He has complained about thimerosal (the mercury based preservative once widely used in childhood vaccines), chronicled the scientific controversy regarding a campaign alleging safety concerns over the MMR vaccine, and claimed[citation needed] to have found evidence that links vaccines and autism.

[edit] Interest in cosmology

Miller also has an interest in cosmology. As a member of Mensa International, the high-IQ society, and the ISI-S Society, a group "founded with the aim of bringing together intelligent individuals who also value creativity", he is working on a project to "define the various layers of affective, cognitive and physical manifestations that occur when solar archetypes form critical junctures with human volition, and establish the rudiments of a new living science substantiating a link between the Pythagorean concept of Divine Number, Platonic Ideals, and the Keplerian notion that celestial harmonies and perfect ratios unify God and humanity".

[edit] Quotes

"Every year, more than 12,000 people in the United States contact the FDA to report serious adverse reactions to mandated vaccines. The FDA estimates that this represents just 10 percent of the true rate. Yet, even these figures pale in comparison to the number of cases of new diseases now being scientifically linked to compulsory inoculations: MMR and autism, polio vaccines and cancer, the hepatitis B vaccine and multiple sclerosis, the Hib vaccine and diabetes, to name just a few. For these reasons, among others, I am opposed to mandatory vaccines. I do not recommend for or against the shots. I want everyone to think through this enigmatic and controversial subject on their own. I believe that parents are capable of obtaining the facts and making knowledgeable choices regarding the care and welfare of their children."
