That quote is taken out of context. To quote the entire thing:
"The point is that I have heard of – I mean who hasn’t ever met a child who has a profound disability and in the parents’ mind they see a connection,” Paul said. “But I didn’t allege there is a connection. I said I heard of people who believe there is a connection. I do think that vaccines are a good idea. I’ve been vaccinated. My kids have been vaccinated."

The headlines says "Rand Paul: We Wouldn’t Need Laws If Everyone Were Christian". Paul never said anything like that. He said that "Christian values" like non-violence and such are good.

To quote the entire thing That wasn't out of context, that's him later trying to walk back his quote. They link directly to a video of him saying what they quoted[1] (and even ignoring that, his point that parents should essentially use their instincts for setting a vaccination schedule is irresponsible and would make for incredibly poor public policy) [1] http://video.cnbc.com/gallery/?video=3000351424 http://video.cnbc.com/gallery/?video=3000351424 at 1:53
