Catholic U.S. troops should be allowed to refuse the COVID-19 vaccine based solely on conscientious objection and regardless of whether abortion-related tissue was used in its creation or testing, the archbishop for the military declared in a new statement supporting service members who are seeking religious exemptions.

“No one should be forced to receive a COVID-19 vaccine if it would violate the sanctity of his or her conscience,” said Archbishop for the Military Services Timothy P. Broglio, in a statement released Tuesday.”
Statement by the Archbishop on his change in position:
He should be the next pope.
Does anyone, besides we Catholics, pay any attention to what any Archbishop has to say? Is an Employer going to care?
GIven that he is effectively the Archbishop for an employer, he does matter
>>Is an Employer going to care?<<
Yep, several of us at work filed religious exemptions primarily because of the use of HEK-293. Human embryonic kidney cells from aborted fetal tissue.
Secondly, because the so called vaccine alters your DNA by use of mRNA. We rejected the changing of our DNA as God had intended.
Our exemptions were granted. We now have to test each week.
That’s good news.
To paraphrase Janet Napolitano: “Sometimes, the system works!
“ He should be the next pope.”
WRONG! He should replace the current Pope.
Thank you Archbishop Broglio! “Sanctity of conscience”…that’s the exemption argument I’ve been looking for. Finally, a voice of reason from a religious leader AND a letter to use!
“We now have to test each week.”
Why don’t the vaccinated have to be tested? They can catch it and pass it on.
Wow..gonna be a lot of conversians to Catholicism...
Heck..just say I’m Catholic...how they gonna prove you’re not???
Bahaha

Yes it is a big deal.
Now it is Dementia Joe vs the Catholic Church.
It’s also Pope Francis vs. the Catholic Church, as Bergoglio is firing his own military (Swiss Guards) for not vaxxing.
If this isn’t the “Mark” I don’t know what is.
It is worldwide.
Such a shame.
You’re Catholic? It’s a huge deal...it us an open act of resistance to immoral government acts. Maybe the problem isn’t with the Archbishop...maybe the problem us looking you in the mirror friend.
My Confirmation name was from Saint Frederick.
My elementary school was Saint Cecilia.(green & gold!)
Great
If I may ask, is the testing snot or spit, and who pays for it?
