ny daughter (27) works for a local nursing home/assisted living facility.
they are forcing the jab, but are offering "religious exemption" options.
how has the FReeper community handled these situations?
they gave her a form to complete, including a place for a pastor to sign off on it.
Glancing at it, I can see a few illegal things, but law and order are dead in bidens america, so THAT is out of the discussion.
How have you all handled it, thus far?
thanks in advance for your responses.
Aborted stem cells used in vaccine
Mandate is assuming EVERYONE will have Covid....yet millions had it before the vaccines even came about.
the Lew Rockwell site has some good info on vaccine exempt letters.
https://www.lewrockwell.com/political-theatre/vaccine-exemption-template-letter/
I got handed one of these last week by my employer. It is not as invasive, but easily can be in the future. I threw it in the trash. Let them fire me, I won’t blink.
Uhmm, fill it out and have a pastor sign it?
Try this one:
Vaccine Religious Exemption Letter
by Michael Suede • October 26, 2021
Religious exemption letter:
This letter represents a formal request for a religious exemption from your mandated policy of vaccination. EEOC regulation, Federal code and US Supreme Court precedent do not require I submit my request for a religious exemption to a vaccine mandate using a pre-supplied form. Nor do they require I answer medical questions or questions of conscience beyond my stated deeply held religious beliefs.
I have a deeply held belief that my body is my own to decide what I put into it, and this belief is sacrosanct. The notion that I must submit to an injection of a substance against my will in order to continue doing a job I’ve been doing throughout this pandemic without incident is shocking to my conscience.
Forcing me to chose between my livelihood or to undergo what amounts to the legal definition of battery is ethically and morally repugnant. The violation of informed consent this mandate imposes is a matter of religious conscience; what the Nazi doctors did is morally wrong, spiritually offensive, and participating or partaking in such invasive, coerced medicine at any time offends the very core of my conscience.
Further, the use of aborted fetuses in either the development or production of these vaccines, or both, when my religious beliefs require that I respect all human life, including fetal life, and not knowingly profit from harm to fetal life, is greatly offensive to me.
I have forwarded a copy of this letter to my attorney [and union representative].
The letter should not be cut and paste. It should be tailored to her.
The LC template is good, but you cannot just cut and paste.
They even advise you against such. She need to tailor it to HER beliefs.
Keep in mind the most common objections and rebuttals to those objections.
1. The abortion derived cell line testing. (Be prepared for the “Tylenol talking point.”) My answer to that talking point would be that there is a distinct difference between things that have their genesis and product development with abortion derived cell testing, and those products that were pre-existing (like Tylenol) that some person then decided to later test on abortion derived cells.
2. The code of life argument. Be careful that you don’t misstate science here. Don’t say things like “mRNA alters your DNA.” That’s not precise and isn’t what is happening. Instead, you might argue that mRNA manipulation and cellular manipulation on this level is something that belongs only to God and what God uses in nature. Man-made interference at this level is tantamount to playing God.
3. If you are a pre-tribulation Christian, you might argue from Revelation 13.
4. The Conscience/Faith argument.
5. The Kuyperian Sphere of Sovereignty argument.
Whatever she argues, it needs to be HER deeply held religious beliefs. Don’t just cut and paste what others have written.
My religion is “Science” and the EO mandate violates my deeply held religious belief in science and the scientific method by denying natural immunity.
she does not have a pastor.
otherwise I would pursue that path.
That did occur to me.
Not familiar with the exemption form, however my nephew in Oregon public school employment, who is a legitimate practicing devout Christian, submitted their form and was granted Religious Exemption as routine, no difficulties.
What a pastor thinks is immaterial. Your religious rights pertain to your personal convictions, not those of any other person. No need for a “permission slip.”
How about adding in how your DNA gets ‘owned’ by big pharma?
So you are not you anymore. You are them; they are you.
This seems to be a foundational point - I and my Soul are mine and mine alone.
PS, I can give them to God only.
PPS and others do give them to.
Go church to church and be honest about it. Might find one rebel pastor.
Does she have a religious conviction about it (pastor or not)? If so, maybe there is a pastor willing to sign off on it in her area (if you post her general location some freepers may be willing to make suggestions)
My son had two issues with it - one was that the shots were tested on fetal cells, the second was that he does not believe in putting anything harmful in his body - like drugs, etc. and in the case of the shot the risk was higher than the reward. He provided data to show that being healthy, and in his 20s, he was less likely to have issues with covid than the shot.
“... Mandate is assuming EVERYONE will have Covid....yet millions had it before the vaccines even came about. “
I’m one of those who had it before the vaccine. My family all got sick from Christmas 2019 thru the 3rd or 4th week in January 2020. Got over it and then late February Covid19 became a household word. We got vaccines in May 2021. No reactions at all to the vaccines, not even a sore arm at the injection site. I did lose my smell and taste. Eating steak or pork chops is like chewing on cardboard, no flavor at all.
“...some person then decided to later test on abortion derived cells.”
It depends if the pharm company paid for the testing. In many cases they did. Then the moral quandary becomes local, not remote, and subsequent use of the vaccine is immoral.
“one was that the shots were tested on fetal cells,”
Wrong.
“No need for a “permission slip.”
I agree. The exemption is not for the pastor. In my own case a pragmatic problem arises because my parish or parishes are remote. No local pastor to sign off and the distant ones don’t know me, although I believe I am as sincere as anyone about the fetal cell line involvement and the moral implications thereof.
I wonder why I am self employed. I’ll stay with my natural immunity and have never had a customer raise the issue. Being rural probably helps as well.
