I would suggest going to “human resources” and asking for a religious exemption request form.

I have to get swabbed twice a week

This is the University of California form:

That’s only for information purposes and is not to my taste.

we have not be given any procedure to submit our religious or medical exemptions

No need to wait (if you are feeling aggressive): Go to your parish priest (or other clergyman) and get him to write you a letter stating "Mr. uzumaki_naruto is hereby exempted for religious reasons." (I'm assuming that you can find a "sympathetic" / "cooperative" clergyman.)

Submit that letter to HR.

Say and do nothing more. If you are "called out" or otherwise challenged to "justify" or "explain" the letter, simply state, "The letter is explanation enough."

Case closed!

Please do not comply at this point in time. Liberty Council has filed a Temporary Restraining Order to delay this mandate. They have also filed a suit challenging the EO. The case is being heard in Florida by the same Judge who ruled against the Cruise lines industries requiring a vaccine passport.

For what it's worth, there is no Official Guidance of Religious Exceptions for Federal DoD workers. You can find the actual court filings on LC's website.

Related - My daughter was doing work for Washington State DOT thru her company. Then she got notice if she wasn’t jabbed, her contract would be suspended. She’s already had COVID, so that was a non-starter.

So now another company has picked up the contract, and has subbed the work out to her as a temp - so she still has the work …

Dear Employer:

Article VI of the Constitution of the United States states that “no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or trust under the United States.”

All the Covid vaccines federally approved for use in the US have a fetal cell connection.

By mandating Covid vaccination, President Joe Biden is attempting to impose a partisan & unconstitutional religious test upon the predominately Protestant Republican faithful.

While not very religious personally, I have accepted the religious principle of “Thou shall not murder” without reservation into my life. I do not knowingly wish my body to be contaminated for the rest of my days with the biological fruits of baby murder.

There are some people who believe that Joe Biden’s advisors are trying to break the religious faithful by forcing them to sell their soul for the modern equivalent of thirty pieces of silver. This attempt to break the religious observance of million of people is a great evil and I would hope our company stands firm on the side of the faithful to God and his Commandments.

Yours Truly

A friend who is a federal contractor was advised by his supervisor to request a medical exception to the mandate as the vaccine poses a risk to his health. HIPAA law prevents disclosure of medical data without the patient’s consent, in writing, so he can elect not to reveal the condition without penalty. Seems this strategy may work.

Bookmarking. I’ve been given until Oct.27 to file my request for religious exemption. If accepted, then it will be with some compromise (testing, work from home...?). Else I’m out of work as of Dec. 8.

If you are Catholic, Bishop Athanasius Schneider will get you a religious exemption - https://onepeterfive.com/bishop-schneider-affidavit-religious-exemption-covid-vaccine/

[disclaimer]

Also keep in mind:

1.) There is no executive order, nor OSHA regulation, that "mandates" a COVID Vaccination. A group of Republican State Governors are still waiting for it to materialize so they can proceed with their lawsuit.

2.) The COVID vaccines in use have not been approved, and are experimental. The 'approved' vaccine is not in production.

This is the GSA form Religious Exemption form:

https://www.gsa.gov/Forms/TrackForm/147239

I don’t recommend using it, but your exemption request probably should deal with all issues the form raises.

Note: This is a political blog and I’m merely stating my personal lay opinions as protected by Amendment I.

As many of you know, a belief often hardens with additional thought and information gathering.

Go to Sydney Powells website.
She has it for every faith. Must verify citations to make sure they are correct.

Hubby used Catholic version and found a few errors. His employer accepted his claim.

(Why are illegal aliens exempt?)
