Perhaps This Is A BETTER Religious Exemption Letter

Seems like a good one! ( NOTE — this will NOT work for you Holy Ones who simply can’t stop posting Bible verses!!)

===================

No Thank You Letter

I have read a number of employee “religious exemption” vaccination opt-out letters online.   Any religious exemption letter must take into account the fact that 50 percent of an urban jury in America today might be atheist, agnostic, or anti-Christian.  Because I don’t find anything that I have read very persuasive, I am posting this.  I believe what I have posted below is both persuasive and an effective Christian apologetic.

Whenever one’s communication could be “Exhibit A” in a lawsuit it is very important to be persuasive.  Persuasiveness requires FIRST connecting with the reader/jury on a visceral level that is non-ideological.  Once this connection is made, only then can we communicate what we “see.”  First, connection.

Second, communicate view/picture.

Third, lead into the light.  Beginning with ideology or polemic statements is a recipe for failure.   This is persuasion 101.

Although the letter below may not save your job, it is both persuasive and authentic.  If you sue, it will be an excellent and very persuasive Exhibit A.  It does not pound the reader over the head with Bible verses and does not mention abortion or fetal tissue.  Yet at the same time is is uncompromising, epistemologically sound, and truthful.

That makes it a winner.

These 3rd Graders Have Some Questions For God And It's Hilarious | Bored Panda

——————

Dear Sir or Madam:  

Thank you for your suggestion that I get vaccinated.  For the reasons outlined below, I cannot receive the vaccination that you suggest.  Based on the contents of this letter I respectfully request that you make your best efforts to accommodate me and retain me as an employee as together we now enter the process of determining what is a reasonable accommodation going forward (the “Accommodation Process”).  

The reasons that I cannot receive the vaccination you suggest are:

1. Authority and Risk.  I find no legal or moral authority that would allow you, as an employer, to require me to submit to an experimental drug treatment as a condition of my employment.  If you are aware of authority that allows you and/or any goverment to require me to submit to a request to allow an invasion of my body with a drug treatment and experimental drug product for which I bear all the risk and the seller/purveyor of the product bears no risk and has legal immunity, please provide this authority.  If you are unwilling to assume the risk that the vaccine sellers refuse to accept, please explain why you will not accept this risk.  

If you are able to provide some authority for your vaccine request, in your response also please explain how and why your authority applies to the present situation.  All data that I have seen indicates that the mortality risk–the IFR, the Infection to Fatality Ratio–relative to the 2020 seasonal flu (aka Covid-19) is no different than any other prior seasonal flu.  

2. Informed Consent.   My conscience, world view, and value system informs me that I cannot consent to an intrusion into my body without fully knowing the risks.  The risks of getting the 2020 seasonal flu (aka Covid-19) are known and negligible for all demographics.  This is the IFR referred to above.   Please additionally note that the IFR may overstate the known risk because the PCR test used to identify the 2020 seasonal flu (aka Covid-19) is an inductive, not deductive, test in which the sample is mixed with other genetic material and does not isolate the allegedly harmful virus.  Further PCR “results” are magnified as many as 45x to determine the presence of some genetic material (in a soup of genetic material) that correlates with (does not cause) the 2020 seasonal flu (aka Covid-19).   The existing PCR tests therefore do not satisfy Koch’s Postulate which requires:  (1) complete isolation of danger/bacteria/virus; and (2) defintive and reproducable proof of causation (factor A produces result B).  

The risks associated with the vaccine you request, on the other hand, are largely unknown and may be unknowable for many years.  Many esteemed doctors and health professionals advise against accepting the vaccine.  In addtion, there are many anecdotal adverse outcomes associated with the vaccines.  These include Guillain-Barre Syndrome (paralysis) and myocarditis.   Because we do not know whether or how many recipients of the experimental vaccines are receiving placebos and because adverse outcomes many develop many years down the road, it is impossible to assess the total risk associated with taking the vaccine.  Meanwhile the vaccine sellers, who presumably have done some testing and are aware of the risk, refuse to accept the risk and demand legal immunity from risk.  

Informed consent in these circumstances is thus impossible.  

3. Epistemology.  Epistemology is the question of “what can man know and how can he know it?”   All epistemological questions ultimately boil down to the question of “who is in charge here?” and lead to the dualistic choice of whether our timespace experience is under the control of men or a Sovereign God.   Your vaccine request, for which I am very grateful because it has caused me to ask these questions, has also led me to conclude that I am better to put my fate in the hand of the Triune God I believe in than I am to putting it in the hands of shamelessly dishonest and self-interested men.  

All of the points above are reflected in various constitutions, laws, statutes, and the Nuremberg Code.   I say “reflected in” because I do not rely primarily on law or “rights” scrivened by man for my position.   My position is based on an epistemolgical worldview–God is in charge here.  If there are laws that accord with this worldview and you believe that such laws require that you cooperate with me, then please follow such laws.  This will benefit both of us.  

Again, I thank you for your vaccine request and look forward to working together in the Accommodation Process.

Sincerely,

Since it has been 5 days I suspect his doctor may have balked. I hope not, but the shit is getting real.

As an attorney admitted to practice in multiple states and court systems (state/federal) with 50 years of corporate and trial practice I believe this is an EXCELLENT (dare I say “inspired”) effort.

* It LEADS WITH personal, ethical, health concerns which are totally non-denominational.

* It references facts and themes which are NOW WIDELY PUBLISHED in our national consciousness. They are disputed, but they are INCREASING IN THEIR POPULARITY every day.

* It makes REASONED arguments which COMPEL RESPECT.

* It not merely invites BUT DEMANDS a reply/response which MUST BE based upon verifiable, scientific and medical data, proofs, statistics which, I respectfully suggest, DO NOT EXIST and thus CANNOT BE used to question, much less refute, the author’s logical and reasonable opinions.

* The letter then SEGUES into religious concerns based upon ENORMOUSLY BROAD shared beliefs, without the risk of offending any person of moral/religious conscience. [Again, brilliantly non-denominational.]

This is, I submit, GENIUS I must applaud.

God bless the writer and God Bless the USA.

I had Covid, I had a blood test that confirms the presence of covid antibodies, I asked for the medical exemption based on the antibody test.

I was told I still must get the vaccine, and booster when it becomes available.
I questioned why, the reply was the vaccine, and booster would help my body produce antibodies.
I again submitted the lab results showing I had natural antibodies.
The emailed response from HR?

You must get the vaccine and booster when it becomes available or you are not allowed in the facility.

The kicker is I’m a contractor, my office is responsible to determine who in my crew can work in the facility. The maintenance director will not police the contractors.
The Trinity Health hospital employees though, are screwed, those who did not get the jab were given 30 days unpaid leave.
Get the jab, ya got yer job back, no jab? No job.

I hope there’s a Yuge lawsuit.

I do have a question. This does seem to br suggestive to the company making the mandate. Although how would you change the letter if the authoratives of my company are fairly supportive of giving the option but it is the state mandating the vaccine in order to keep my job. I dont want to direct it towards my employer if they arent the ones that are mandating it

it is very important to be persuasive.

The author is missing the point. One can write mostly anything in the exemption letter (as long as it is not openly offensive or stupid). Whether or not the exemption gets approved has very little to do with the content of the exemption letter. It has everything to do with whether the company is interested in keeping that particular employee and whether the company owners have been allowed by TPTB to keep at least some of those rebel employees.

Again, the actual content of your exemption letter is mostly irrelevant.

Correct. My company boasted of approving 97% of supplicants, I read some from coworkers from other faiths.

Mine was turned down and the VP of HR admitted “it had nothing to do with what was written in your application” and only because they had monitored me online and didn’t like what I had to say on this platform, even though everything I have posted had been redacted to contain no personally or corporate identifying information.

Went so far as to say that the act of publishing my application on this site demonstrated that my beliefs were not sincere. I did not waste my breath arguing with HR, but I posit that posting here was an act of sharing my sincerely held beliefs.

Also termed me a racist and antisemite?!?

Excellent, excellent letter. I do have one question I was wondering about—as one who has had covid (or whatever it is) and recovered. The author writes: “The risks of getting the 2020 seasonal flu (aka Covid-19) are known and negligible for all demographics. ” While this is indeed true given the information we have now, it is still early and we do not have data concerning long haul covid so to speak. Isn’t it equally true that the people that are naturally infected with the wild virus (as opposed to the synthetic gene therapy) now have the spike protein running through their veins as well? So how do we know that the long term effects of this wild virus spike protein (especially since it itself was likely made in a lab and hence synthetic) are any less dangerous than the synthetic spike protein? Perhaps the uncompromised immune system can completely destroy the wild virus spike (I hope this is the case), while the other ingrediencies in shot compromise the immune system and allow the spikes to run unchecked (seems to be Gert’s contention)? Or maybe the immune system can not fully be tricked by any spike proteins (wild or synthetic) and maybe this is why most people seem to be making it out of this thing (both wild virus infected and gene therapy infected) okay? I guess only time will tell, but the suspense is killing me. What do you all think?

From my reading and understanding, the spike protein from the “wild virus” is cleared by a healthy immune system and thus poses negligible risk after a person gets over it. The engineered medical treatment (aka JAB) on the other hand causes the body itself to continue to produce spike proteins for a long time (I am not sure how long) and that is but one key difference – the jab causes your body to produce the spike protein so your body becomes likely to attack itself in various ways (autoimmune disease) while the wild variety “virus” does not do this.

My work has been submitting all religious letters to a team of lawyers to shoot them down. They knocked all the letters down I knew of from one department. Everyone’s letters had arguments, facts, news articles, scientific reports, etc, and were all dissected by the lawyers and disproven, thus invalidating the letters. I figure since religion is inherently illogical, using logical arguments is a recipe for disaster. I think you would do better if you write something direct and specifically, “God told me don’t do it!” If you argue or cite any human facts, they’ll just disprove them.
If you want to really beat it, get a medical exemption. You fall under ADA with that one and they can’t mess with you.

Good luck getting a medical exemption. I was told by my PCP that the hospital had ordered them not to fill out any paperwork for exemptions. Sounds like they’ll be ready for a malpractice suit when someone dies from being coerced into being vaxxed.

Also heard the same thing from coworkers in other states who had a variety of conditions (cardiac, neurological, autoimmune) that I thought should have gotten them exempted. Out of a group of 41 coworkers, I don’t know a single one who got a medical , but several who shared about getting denied.

It is simple to craft a “God told me not to” argument using the BIBLE.

Attorneys have neither the capacity nor the authority to argue against the Scriptures. Otherwise, what’s the point of refusing on religious grounds?

Christian: God does not dwell in temples made with men’s hands. Technology, even biological technology, is inherently the work of men’s hands. Keep the tech out of the temple, per God’s clear instructions

Rabbinical: There are expressed prohibitions against mingling seed in the Books of Moses. Religious Jews won’t even keep meat and dairy in the same refrigerator. DNA and its components (RNA, for example) are ‘seed’ in the most fundamental and biblical sense

Isalamic: Does someone want to tell me this schmutz is HALAL and is compliant with the Sharia code of cleanliness concerning substances to be consumed?

No lawyers can argue with any of the above. And corporations expose themselves to devastating lawsuits if they dare to buck this tiger. Moreover, rejection of this mandate on religious grounds requires NO explanation other than a personal, sincerely-held belief which prevents a person from allowing this abominable filth into their bodies.

Everyone should stop yielding ground to these whores and thereby playing the game according to the whores’ rules.

The fundamental problem with any exemption is that they are statutorily defined. Once you employ them, you have voluntarily accepted them as a legitimate jurisdiction and you are trapped. Nobody gets to define what your sincerely held beliefs are except you. The proper response when someone demands an operational framework (i.e. when they start questioning you on the meaning of a Bible verse)… is the middle finger front and center in their face.

Unlike the boomers (if the rosy-tinteds aren’t being used by them), I have bent over for jobs before. Never again.

People who really worry about feeding and housing their family probably worry about this nonstop, covid or no covid, and I can sympathize. For the rest it’s an excuse. They never seem to worry about risking their family when they go into debt for more shiny garbage, or by having a string of affairs, or sending their kids to a shitty school to end up beaten by apes or doing drugs or getting sex-ed from government-sanctioned perverts.

The last two times I heard the ‘family to feed’ argument IRL they had brand new nice vehicles.

For the most part, I like the letter. I would take exception to equating covid with the seasonal flu. Not that I don’t think the two are inseparable, but members of a jury may think you are a conspiracy nut.

If you plan on taking this to court, then the best tactic is to put the onus on the employer i.e. Nuremberg Code, HIPPA or laws against forced use of experimental drugs.

When it comes to the bottom line, your employer will accept exemption letters from those they deem to be valued employees and reject the exemption from those they see as troublemakers (See Tony Baloney’s comment). Of course, this in and of itself, can be used in a courtroom as proof of discrimination, if you are a protected class (minority, woman, sexual deviate, over 50 or non-Christian).

An excuse for your failure to plan and prepare to take care of yourself and family.
An excuse for your failure to have a plan B.
And C.
An excuse for your failure to be constantly increasing your knowledge and skills to monetize at a moments notice when traditional income streams disappear.
These were your choices, and this is your result.
Own it.
Don’t worry, many before you have been in the same position.
Take this as a learning experience and try not to repeat the mistake.

For those that indicate that there is legal recourse; the government has already ignored Supreme Court rulings.
There is no valid legal system coming to your rescue.
All legal recourse is now extra-judicial.

For those claiming violent resolve to prevent the wax; you will be the poster child of the ballyhooed Domestic Terrorist.
Best to simply decline and make no mention of weapons or intent, lest you find yourself on a red-flag list.
