For autism, I'd look more at environmental toxins than vaccines -- we all got vaccinated, and as you point out, autism was fairly rare in our boomer generation.
A baby's antibodies come from the mother, but they only last about 6 months, then the baby needs antibodies of his/her own, and without vaccines, there won't be any antibodies. That's science, not subject to beliefs -- it's still a fact whether you believe it or not.
I'm thinking all it will take to get these folks back on the science/vaccination train is another epidemic of measles, german measles (rubella), mumps, whooping cough, diptheria, or god forbid, polio.
