oThis morning I opened my email to see that I was granted an exemption from my employers requirement of the Covid-inspired mRNA injectable product.
I need to thank this community as I could not have done it on my own.
Over the last month or so I copied a piece from a post here, a segment from someone's comment there and was able to craft an assertion of religious objection that was well sourced, accurate, and most importantly - true to my sincerely held beliefs as a Christian.
I work at a University in the Northeast US which is extremely leftwing, some of our top administrators actually openly worked for the Biden/Harris campaign and all our leadership donates bigly to left wing extremist house/senate members.
So, I was fully expecting my application to be denied, but by the grace of God it was accepted and I will not be losing my job due to my un-injected status.
I am however aggressively looking for a new non-jabby job because f*ck them for attempting this in the first place.

EDIT: To answer some questions. My school had a deadline of the end of August so I submitted last week to give me some time to bail if denied.
I do not have a copy of what exactly was written as it went into an online form and I did not back it up onto a word doc or anything. It was brief and essentially I said that I was a Christian and taking an injection that has or uses fetal cell tissues goes against my sincerely held beliefs. I don't remember the link now but it can be searched for that shows which ones have it in the shot and which ones used fetal cells in the testing phase. I didn't quote any Bible verses or anything like that since I learned from videos I saw that it is not necessary, the only requirement you need is that you have a sincerely held religious belief so the less you say the better.
Lol, don't you love it when people WANT to ask, but they're still too polite, so they just assume...works out well:)
YES! I really needed this job and it will open a lot of doors for me. I prayed over this for a long time & knew if they made a fuss, I'd have to leave. Turns out I didn't need to be concerned at all because they all just assumed I was. I like all of these people a lot so it's been good for me to have sympathy while trying to learn how these very intelligent people have been so snowballed. It's fascinating!
