When you are told by someone lese your belief is not sincerely held you are basically being told you are going to hell. This is a cornerstone of Christianity - humans cannot judge another human that way.

I’m not sure which angers me more, the continuing demonization of those who want to simply choose for themselves, or the Christian community that goes along with the demonization.
Fr. Matthew’s argument seems similar to claiming that since someone at some time used an SUV as a deadly weapon, you must forever cease driving any SUV, or be considered a hypocrite.
The real issue is whether a drug’s developers relied, unnecessarily, unethically, and immorally, on aborted fetal cell lines to bring their product to market. If they did, then they became part of the problem, and for many people, using their products becomes part of the problem. It is irrelevant what someone else did, somewhere else, at some later time, with the drugs.
Thanks, ebb tide.

Do you really expect anyone to read that hour long post, plus URL footnotes? You couldn’t condense? Thanks for the info, but no thanks.
Must be why Tylenol never worked for me. If I had known about the aborted cells, I would have never taken it in the first place
Long read, well done and worth the time to take it all in. Thanks for posting it, ebb.
Thank you for posting the whole thing. I have advised a few people on religious exemptions and this info is very good to know.
I told my employer that I have a religious objection to the Covid vaccines. I didn’t tell them what the objection was, only that I had an objection.
I will not be requesting a religious “ exemption”. Requesting an “exemption” is an admission that they have a right to review it and make a decision whether or not to grant the exemption.
I’ve informed them that I have a religious objection. They have no constitutional or statutory authority to decide if it’s sincere. It’s none of their business.
An enlightening article. Thank you for posting it.

“I found that none of their medications were tested on HEK-293, except one: a very recent diabetes medication”
I wonder how I can find out which one.
Very interesting, and I suppose I should not be surprised,
(but I am only because I smelled bs and did not dig into it like I should have when they said tums were tested on this cell line)
