Here is the main part of my letter:
We are in a time of intense political divide, censorship, and misinformation, with radically different narratives and interpretations proffered by well-credentialed scientists and experts. As a Christian first, I am obligated to remain faithful to my core beliefs and utilize every skill at my disposal to cut through masses of confusing news sources and data and take positions and actions that honor God.
My professional activities are established upon the aforementioned core values as well as religious convictions to not defile my body (1 Corinthians 3:16-17, 6:19, 8:7; 2 Corinthians 7:1) nor allow others to dictate my freedoms as based on God’s laws as outlined in the Bible. These foundational beliefs along with my scientific studies and analyses of original source data and numerous publications have led me to conclude that current COVID and related vaccines and boosters are inappropriate for me.
As shown in the The Myth of Religious Neutrality, everyone ultimately considers something to be divine and thereby operates upon some form of religious presuppositions. My religious convictions underlie everything I do, including science and data analysis. I am fully prepared to offer an extensive scientific and data-based defense of my current position, but I understand the purpose of this form is to focus on my sincerely held religious beliefs, and so I limit discussion to them.
Under a Christian worldview, honest evaluation of important topics like vaccines reveals God’s glory and truth in His Creation and should shine past any attempts at political exploitation or obfuscation. For me, high-quality and unbiased science is a form of religious expression as I seek to know and understand My Creator and what is truly going on in our world. At the same time, I believe strong forces of evil exist that promote false narratives and distortions of the truth designed to harm Christians, innocent citizens, and the traditionally conservative Christian-based moral foundations of the United States.
I hereby assert my right to a religious exemption from vaccination. I am objecting to these vaccines because I believe in and follow God and the principles laid out in His Word, which include both faithfulness to that Word as well as honest and unbiased consideration of available science and data. I have a deeply held belief that my partaking of these vaccines violates these principles. I believe my body is a temple for the Holy Spirit, and furthermore that “God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind” (2 Timothy 1:7). It is my God-given responsibility and requirement to protect the physical integrity of my body against harmful intakes and to seek truth and righteousness amidst battles between good and evil.
I make this assertion for the glory of God the Father and His Beloved Son Jesus Christ, My Savior, as consistent with my faith which I am grateful to share with you. Thank you for your consideration of it.
