> I would like to better understand how/why mRNA vaccines can't/won't eventually turn into a dangerous prion.
Why would it? A prion is a specific protein, why would this specific mRNA molecule, which only exists in our body for hours, cause that specific protein expression, when we have hundreds of thousands of other mRNA molecules per cell all similarly experiencing their own self destruction?
You're right, I may have been too dismissive, and you're right, science is about curiosity, but the "just asking questions" approach is a way to demolish perfectly good science. You can't prove a negative, and so throwing doubt after doubt at something is a good way to discredit a perfectly valid point because eventually you run out of answers. That's why I asked why they had that belief.
The user that asked the question didn't further engage, they just threw in some doubt and walked away. That doesn't feel like scientific curiosity. That feels like pot stirring.
