Here is why Catholics for instance can have a religious exemption. By the way, the current pope is not well liked among devout Catholics.

"Religious reasons" are based on ones relationship with God...not church doctrine.
I guess my point is very few people can really use this without actually just lying about it.

he knew what the consequences would be for refusing the shot. he made his decision. Many more will as well. The legality of all this will come into question and if it goes like some think, those that were fired for refusing an experimental shot, will have the rest of their financial future well in hand.
But regardless, he stuck to his principals, he retained his integrity. Good for him.

It depends, in certain situations yes.
An example if you please.

Sounds like he made the decision to not get vaccinated based on religious reasons. Far enough, looks like his dedication to his religion was his top priority.
He had a choice.
you are an asshole. I am sorry but you are.
"No one will be forced to be vaccinated."
go # yourself.
welcome the mods.

I'm not going to line by line talk on this, but I don't see where the vaccine fits here, maybe you can help me as to what would be the "informed and sure judgment in conscience" in the consideration to suggest it is a "religious objection" if that person has taken many other vaccinations and medicines in the past.
I do believe a person has the right to say no, but to use the "religious objection" is just trying to scam the system. I'm not saying that is wrong either, but doesn't change it from still being BS.

I think most understand that there was no real choice. A fake choice. I see what you are doing here and I do not agree, it's about dignity and basic human rights.
It's not a choice to have a job to survive.
Do you find comfort in the knowledge that those, who do not accept external rulings over their body may have to accept this "choice" because they have children to feed? You have to, since you are a strong supporter of forcing others by leveraging basic human needs like food and shelter, to get them in line and obey.

That's my point, they are scamming the system. People who fall into this category are a small number and show a long history of following this conviction. Not all of a sudden for this one vaccine...lol
Its like I walk past a place that gives 20% off to gay people and I walk in telling them I'm gay just to get the 20% off. Doesn't make it true, now does it, but they can't dispute it either.
