Im a big Notre Dame football fan.. I know there is an irish guy in here, I see some of his posts when I get a chance to get on here, Go Irish!.. but I was just checking out the universities vaccine requirments.. and i noticed it still said vaccine is required unless they give a religious exemption. It reminded me of when I was confused by this term when they started pushing these vaccines. Whats the deal woth this religious exemption? Why would anyone need to prove that? Do they want to know our true religious view? Like, can anyone lie on these exemption forms? Or.. do they need to be signed off by someone that knows the person and can prove they are religious? Can someone help me underatand this religious exemption? Whats the point...

It's not. you can simply say "no thank you" because no one can legally force you to take anything you don't want to. period.
You can refuse on the grounds that you do not want to take it. People wrongly terminated over this kind of response won money and/or got their jobs back w/ backpay.
No magical conversation between your employers lawyers and managers means you somehow waive your rights to body automony.
Making people pick between relgious or medical exemption is a strawman. the real answer is to just say no. The lack of a third option is good to point out. You can sue if there's no third option of just declining it.
