In response to:

“9th commandment says you don’t.
This anti-vaxxer nonsense is tin foil hat.”

Maybe you should actually look at the context of the 9th commandment. I’m not saying that lying is ok, but “You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor” means that you will not lie about what someone else does or does not do.

...and your “anti-vaxxer nonsense” statement is BS. This has nothing to do with being anti-vax. This has to do with one’s right to NOT participate in an experiment.

Mark of the beast. My religion is not against vaccines, and neither am I. I have deeply held religious concerns against reporting a status that I have received a mark in order to participate in society. So the objection is against the reporting, NOT the vaccine. Revelation 13:16

It’s not a vaccine, it’s gene alteration.

Vegans are attempting to use the “Sincerely Held Religious Belief” Covid vaccine exemption.

Get a black mask, one of those sold in boxes as disposable.

Notice that there are several layers to the mask. Peel off the inside 2 layers (the side that will go against your face) right around the area of your nose and mouth, leaving only the thin outside layer of gauze. You might need scissors to cut out the area.

From the outside, you can barely, barely see that the inside layer is gone.

This will not work with the lighter blue or white masks - you can clearly see the inside is missing.

This will allow you to actually breath and you have met the mask-up requirements.

Because it is NOT a vaccine. I repeat it is NOT A VACCINE.

It is pure gene altering - and experimental. Research it.

1. It is NOT a vaccine. It does not prevent disease, ie., smallpox or polio. This injection will not eradicate any disease. Scientific belief.
2. It alters your RNA, hence destroying God’s design for you. Religious belief.
3. It is man attempting to be God for all of mankind. Religious belief.
4. It is as in the days of Noah, when man became corrupted genetically. Science and religious belief.

I’m trying to wrap my brain around it because this sure does seem like it will become the MOTB. Only, do the left handed have a get out of jail free card? Lol.

Also, my folks got the jab. They’re good God-fearing folks. Always have been. That right there throws me off big time.

As for a Christian, we believe that children of God, saved by the Blood of Christ, have the Holy Spirit as guidance. If the Holy Spirit is warning one against it they cannot in good conscience, and the well being of their soul, disregard that.

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) defines “religious beliefs” to include theistic beliefs (i.e. those that include a belief in God) as well as non-theistic moral or ethical beliefs about right and wrong that are sincerely held with the strength of traditional religious views. In most cases, whether or not a practice or belief is religious is not an issue. However, generally, religion typically concerns “ultimate ideas” about “life, purpose and death,” while social, political and/or economic philosophies and mere personal preferences are not “religious” beliefs. It is important to consider that an individual’s religious beliefs may change over time. Additionally, individuals may choose to adhere to some tenets of their religion but not others, and/or individuals may have a sincere belief in a religious practice that is not observed by other followers of their religion. Title VII also protects employees or applicants from discrimination if they do not subscribe to a particular religious view and/or are atheist.

Also, all of the vaccines currently in use in the USA use aborted cell lines in some capacity. I can.never give support to that.

This has gone beyond experimental, the original post is about using lies about religion to avoid getting vaccinated.

The anti-vaxxer nonsense has become fashionable and political. It should not be either of those things.
