Anti-vaxism reminds a body of Mary Baker Eddy's Christian Science, once a very popular version of Christianity, which holds that sickness is an illusion that can only be corrected by prayer.

But the group declined by 1990 to just over 100,000, and by 2009 to fewer than 50,000.
Yup, those Darwinian principles kinda got a mean bite to em. I wouldn't want to meet up with one in a dark alley after midnight.
