I am going to forward this document to the Colonel who is assisting our unit with our Religious Accommodation Requests, and see what he thinks about this.
I am not in the military so please take this with a grain of salt, but if you state concern about the health effects, could that possibly detract from the weight of your Religious Accomodation Request? Since your request relates only to your personal religious beliefs about putting things in your body, this data (or anything relating to vaccine health effects) probably cannot do anything to help you get a religious exemption, but questioning the health aspects might make people doubt whether religion was the real reason you were requesting an exemption. Because under military policies, concerns about the health effects are not a valid reason to refuse.
Quite the contrary, a religious exemption can be due to a religious, conscience, or moral ground, and I framed my request around all three. The main point of my request is related to the overwhelming lies that have been used to trick the public into thinking the only way is the vaccine. I am a Christian, but I am not anti-vax per se. However, after all of the research I have been doing, I am becoming anti-vax. I believe there are evil forces behind the motives for pushing an untested vaccine on the entire world's population for a virus with such a small percentage of mortality rates. I believe our bodies were made wonderfully in the image of God, and that we have been designed to withstand and to fight the illnesses of this world, and I also believe God has put it on my heart that this vaccine is dangerous. Further I believe we were created to be free, and free to make our own decisions about our bodies. So, any evidence that proves we have been lied to, manipulated, or that the vaccine is dangerous, in my opinion, just bolsters my case. Regardless of the outcome of the request, I can stand strong knowing in my heart I have made the right decision to refuse the vaccine.
-Ephesians 5:11, Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, instead expose them.
I guess what I meant was that if it's a religious exemption then I would assume the reason for requesting the religious exemption would have to be related to religion, but I guess I had that wrong.
