Instead of arguing your own religion for exemption from vaccines, why not indicate the vaccinators’ religion as NOT your own, and separation of church and state?
This is great. I am a CA attorney and wrote numerous religious exemptions for people last year---this year, not so many seem to be needed. People called me initially to complain about discrimination based on the vaccine and while I never have believed it is legal for an employer to mandate any medical procedure, I knew that fight was not going to be a winner, esp. in CA. So instead, I wrote these exemptions. And I did them all for free out of sheer rage. I am happy to help anyone else who needs this help (also for free).
As always, Dr Huber spotlights an out of the box viewpoint and uses her critical thinking skills to blast holes in the narrative of the day. Thanks for your tireless work on behalf of humanity.
After reading the comments, I realized that many thought I meant religious exemption to be used by adults in employment settings, and that is the context where I discussed most of my conversations on this topic with patients.
However, religious exemption, as other exemptions from vaccines, have been used mostly over the years by parents defending their children from state-ordered injection rituals. This is where I think religious exemption is most urgent now also, protecting kids from the most highly toxic vaccine by far, the COVID vaccines, that we have seen in the 30 years of VAERS morbidity and mortality data. Parents usually receive a letter from their children's school with vaccination demands. The parents then generally respond that there will be no vaccines, or no further vaccines, on grounds of religious exemption. There should not be a need to disclose which religion or precisely why. An attorney's guidance here can be wonderfully helpful
this is a brilliantly reasoned analysis. trouble is, realpolitik is that all the large organizations who have been weaponized to push the mass extermination campaign have lawyers who are fighting the employees tooth and nail. peggy hall is the doyenne of religious exemptions - she and her husband pastor dave have probably saved thousands of lives https://www.thehealthyamerican.org/religious-exemptions
apparently citing chapter and verse is the way to go. peggy has been fighting this from day one, has a very acerbic sense of humor and a regular youtube feed which often gets censored.
It's really the oddest thing now as data have arrived. The various mandates were based on a theory that mass vaccination would reduce social harm by ending the spread of the virus. Once data arrived to refute that thesis because the vaccines did not end transmission, the mandates were not rescinded. It's quite fair to ask why not. We, the public, need to pressure those with oversight powers to examine why a failing policy was allowed to continue.
Now Biden weighs in to say we are the only nation to protect our babies with this lifesaving vaccine. Does he not know most nations are advising no vaccination for the young? Our level of incompetent is stunning.
Once again thank you for a really thoughtful article!
My eldest son wrote his application for religious exemption, not pretending to be any particular religion, just objecting to the use of fetal cells in the testing and production of the mRNA shots, on the grounds that his belief in a good God made it reprehensible to him. His employer accepted it.
My husband, born into a Muslim family, did the same. He also got a religious exemption.
What I know is if you claim to be, say, a strict adherent of a particular sect, you're easily shot down, because the religious leaders have all failed to discern the grave evil involved in producing and giving these shots. I'm a Catholic, and the present Pope cut a deal with Pfizer to get everyone in the Vatican shot up. He also called getting vaxxed against covid "an act of love", so I'm on my own, along with every other Catholic that saw clearly what these shots are.

One solution that many people aren't able to accomplish is just refuse to comply. They've already laid off so many it's affecting the economy, a significant factor in the recent inflation. Double that rebellion, or triple it, and the economy would crash, opening the doors for our own "reset" of banishing socialism from our society. Alas, that's impractical since so few today are even capable of supporting themselves, and even if they are, they're addicted to the comforts provided by society, even when burdened with arbitrary fascist dictates.
A society of people who are independent enough to ignore those dictates are immune to fascism. Begging for exemptions is as unhealthy as the vax.
My sincerely held religious belief is that God designed us perfectly; to be self-healing organisms. I practice herbal medicine and I have seen that it works, and herbal medicine and nutritional healing ARE safe and effective.
I believe our bodies, as designed by God, are sacred, and not to have our DNA messed with -- that is against spiritual law, especially if it is done under coercion or deception, as this has been.
I do not belong to a particular church, and this sincerely held belief has nothing to do with aborted fetal cells.
It has to do with my spiritual beliefs about what these vaccines might do to my God-given body, and my faith that my God-given immune system is already a perfect design, and the vaccines seem likely to mess with that.
It's wrong -- it's against God -- and I won't do it. 100% no!
Beautiful insights. Thank you! I think the same thing with the masks, it’s not my religion. I respect yours might force you to cover your face, but my religion asks us only to cover our nakedness and shame, not our faces. We present our faces to God.
I’ve encountered a lot of confusion about religious exemption. Liberty Counsel does a nice job of explaining it and giving resources. Please go check out lc.org. The following is my interpretation of those resources but i’m not a lawyer. You don’t need a minister or priest or vicar or any religious official to sign off. If you are part of a religious organization, it is not required for that organization to support the belief - and your belief can in contrast to their position on vaccines. You do not have to hold the belief for a long time. It is discriminatory to be asked to provide those things. You can wake up in the morning and determine that the vaccines are not for you as long as it is sincere and you have a personal religious basis. Your belief cannot be challenged. One such basis is the fact of the use of aborted fetal cell lines used in development and/or production of the vaccine - Pfizer JJ and Moderna. Another is that your body is a temple of God and he has given you stewardship over it, such that polluting it with products that manipulate your cells to manufacture spike toxins is a violation of the sacred duty. There can be more. Mine was accepted by my company. They asked for some things I didn’t have to answer such as length of time but I chose to answer so that wouldn’t become the sticking point.

Good post. Some judges have cited Francis as head of Catholic Church and his statements it's moral thing to do.
I'm Catholic... he's a tool of commies, not a Catholic and not Pope.

Here is last Pope on experimental medicines:

I love it, not a member of the vaccine religion. 👍🏼 Thanks for breaking this down.
I am not a lawyer but I like the twist to the plot.

I thought this is a religion when I saw Steven Colbert dancing with the vaccines. Thanks for providing better reasons!
Hahaha. I see what you did there. 😉
But yeah, they really are cultic about it. That nutjob Hochul was literally wearing a "Vaxxed" necklace.
Very insightful! I am not a member of the vaccine religion! I’m going to use that next time someone calls me “anti vac”. Ha
