I wanted to thank all of you who are praying for those of us under a mandate to get the jab to keep our jobs. I received notice yesterday that my exemption has been granted. There are many I work with that their exemption has been denied and they're going into the appeal phase. Please continue to pray for those seeking exemptions. I just want to say, what damn clown world do we live in(in America!!!) when we have to beg to be exempted from a poisonous jab that we know is killing people and is the intention of those mandating it?

If I may ask, did they go into what religion you follow and the specifics of why it's against your religion? Or was the claim of religious exemption enough to get you through? I know Christian Scientists refuse pretty much all medical treatment and drugs, but I am Baptist (maybe not a good one if I'm asking this), I don't know if there is anything specific in our doctrine that prohibits me from taking these jabs. I won't get the flu shot either. My actual reasoning is I know the stuff is garbage, but that's apparently not a good enough answer. Religious exemption is great, I just wonder how to defend it if questioned.
fwiw I'm in a Presbyterian denomination and my responses to to our exemption form (note I have not submitted it yet so I don't know what the outcome will be). include that the vaccine development has morally unjustified methods as per that Gab resource, but I also put forth the argument that as a member of my denomination taking vows to be a faithful follower of Christ I am under obligation to act freely according to my own conscience in tending to body and soul especially when it pertains to morally questionable issues, and so bypassing Informed Consent for a mandatory medical procedure on my own self is a violation of that obligation, especially when there are other paths to contribute to and achieve public health in public spaces that are not morally questionable to my belief system.
I'll see how that goes
Best of luck to you - thanks for the input! :)
They do ask what Religion you are a part of. It's not about the doctrine, it's about MY beliefs. Maybe that's the difference. I did not use any Bible verses. I told them I study and worship at home which is true. I told them how I feel, since it's based on my beliefs. That The Lord made me perfect in his image and take the jab would be akin to saying God screwed up, that's offensive to me.
Mathew 7:18 Proverbs 4:27
I'm what part of the Bible was it written that you can accept evil? Clearly that is ridiculous on it's face
You make a very good point, which I fully understand and accept. But one has to know their audience. Someone who is evil won't accept that rationalization, no matter how true it is. And unfortunately, it's the evil ones who are pushing this on people. They don't think it's evil, and the minute "they" disagree with a rationalization, someone's going to lose their job. I don't mean to argue with you, I'm just looking at this from a real world perspective when people like us have to argue efficiently and successfully with unGodly people in order to preserve their individual freedoms. You are absolutely correct in your assessment, I'm just concerned that the context of it would be lost on the Godless who unfortunately wield a certain amount of power over people who want to keep their jobs.
