Let’s be honest: The vast majority of claims for religious exemptions are nothing but an excuse to avoid vaccination. Those claiming religion as a reason should have to justify that claim. Do they attend a church? Does that church have a policy on vaccinations? Have they every taken other vaccinations without claiming a religious exemption.

Firstly the freedom of religion does not require membership in an organized church. Secondly, you can’t just declare all vaccines the same, as some are made from the corpses of murdered children. Thirdly, the medical history of a patient is somewhat irrelevant since beliefs can change over time.

I realize that fundamental human rights can be inconvenient to tyrants, but that’s the way it SHOULD be.

Seriously? So you think people are simply lying? And you measure a person's religious fervor on their church and whether they attend? And what should they say or do to meet your 'justify their claim'?

And what about those other vaccines? We have all of our other shots current, but refuse Covid experimental vaccines on religious grounds. Does that invalidate our claim? Why?

And who gets to play God and decide if someone is religious enough, a member of the right church, attended enough, can write the correct words, or not?

It’s none of their business. Stop violating our rights.

Got any stats on your claim? Or just an opinion...

As you have been an ardent pro-vaccine poster here, you likely don’t really know what you are talking about...

My family member had to fill out extensive paperwork to justify their Religious Exemption request against an Unconstitutional Mandate. They don’t know who has read their information or who will read it; and yes, they had to indicate if they had taken other vaccines as well as dozens of other pharmaceuticals—prescription and over the counter.

You sound much like the intrusive Fascist Compliance Review Committee my family member is dealing with—perhaps you are on the committee because your post is almost verbatim what they demanded my family member submit...and the request still is “status pending” with one-day until termination...tho after multiple attempts to find out status, finally today they have been told to report due to worker shortage but still pending. They have been waiting for 3 months.

And you, like the company feels compelled to decide if my family member’s faith is worthy of an exemption...?You know who is allowed to judge their faith? That would be God—not you nor this employer. Frankly, they should be able to belong to the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, celebrate Festivus and still get an exemption. Funny how employers are not supposed to discriminate on basis of race, sex, sexual orientation, age, country of origin, or ironically religion, yet what you state, along with this employer are doing just that.

Before spouting off like this against those who are seeking a R.E. and don’t feel they should be compelled by an Unconstitutional mandate, perhaps you should take a second look at your position.
