Continuing a conversation begun several posts below<\/strong>,<\/a> let’s get the ball rolling on the Flu Resource Area. This would be part two of the resources area — we’ve already posted one <\/strong><\/a>as part of an annual edition several years ago.<\/p>\n

Jenna Dern, my old friend from the New Paltz PCB skirmishes, turned up in my neighborhood today, and while I went down to Dominick’s Cafe<\/a><\/strong> and made sandwiches, she researched several helpful anti-vaccination resources. I think the most important thing to have organized now is the basis of your objection, which in 48 states may be based on religious principles and in 18 states may be based on philosophical principles.<\/p>\n

I told Dominick what we were up to and he said flatly that if mandatory vaccination came along, they would have to arrest him if they didn’t accept his opposition. To work, that opposition generally needs to be religious in nature; religion does serve a purpose, which is to codify your relationship to existence in a meaningful way.<\/p>\n

The main problem with objecting to vaccines is mostly likely to be you. You may not want to get the shot(s) nor may you want your children to get them, and you likely have the legitimate grounds to oppose. But can you stand up to your mother, your husband, your child’s teacher or your friends, if they are all getting the jab, and think you and your kids should get it too?<\/p>\n

To overcome this issue you need to understand this, and you need to be strong. If you can’t be strong but you want to be, proceed immediately to therapy. It only gets worse as other people continue to run your life.<\/p>\n

Here is some of what Jenna turned up in exactly 23 minutes of research. She is a Taurus and part of the conversation was what it’s like to identify an issue and take action. So I challenged her to see what she could come up with in under 25 minutes, while I made us lunch.<\/p>\n

Religious Exemption from the Flu Vaccine
\n<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This exemption seems to be designed more for children than for adults — though we’re all covered under the 1st Amendment right to freedom of religion. And notably there has not been a mandatory flu shot required, on penalty of arrest. Such an outcome is foreseeable, especially if people start to figure out that these vaccinations don’t work, are dangerous and designed for profit only.
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Here is a resource on religions and philosophical exemptions to vaccination published by the National Vaccine Information Center<\/strong><\/a>.<\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This is not as difficult as it seems. It helps if you establish your objection over time (starting with when you understood you had this religious belief) and the basis of your position. Step one is you write an affidavit (statement) that you have held this position since such and such a date and are affirming it now. They you get it notarized and put it away with your birth certificate and other important identity paperwork. When you need it, you dust it off and bring it out.
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

You could also mail the sworn statement by Certified Mail to your country health commissioner, save the “return receipt” for the letter, and save the reply that you get. If you don’t get a reply, call the commissioner’s office and insist on one.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Here is another website, called Know-Vaccines.org<\/strong><\/a>, which offers detailed and relevant information about the religious exemption.<\/p>\n

To wit:
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

All vaccines are made in violation of God’s Word.<\/strong> Vaccines are made with toxic chemicals that are injected into the bloodstream by vaccination.\u0412\u00a0 All vaccines are made with foreign proteins (viruses and bacteria), and some vaccines are made with genetically engineered viral and bacterial materials.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A conflict arises if<\/strong> you believe that man is made in God’s image and the injection of toxic chemicals and foreign proteins into the bloodstream is a violation of God’s directive to keep the body\/temple holy and free from impurities.<\/p>\n

A conflict arises if<\/strong> you accept God’s warning not to mix the blood of man with the blood of animals.\u0412\u00a0 \u0412\u00a0Many vaccines are produced in animal tissues.<\/p>\n

A conflict arises if<\/strong> your religious convictions are predicated on the belief that all life is sacred.\u0412\u00a0 God’s commandment “Thou Shall Not Kill” applies to the practice of abortion.\u0412\u00a0 When you believe that the practice of abortion should not be encouraged or supported in any way, a conflict arises with the use of vaccines produced in aborted fetal tissue even though you did not have any other connection with the abortions from which the vaccines are derived.<\/p>\n
