Religious Exemption for Covid Vaccine Mandate

A couple of Amish people.

Is it really considered standing up to the man if you hide behind fake religious exemptions? I would think telling them to take this job and shove it would be the alpha thing to do.

Alabama passed a law that all you have to do is check a box

I was able to get an exemption a week ago.
Mostly via quotes from the EEOC and the good book.

I just received the approval for my religious accommodation request today. But they did say that "The final details of your accommodation will be determined based on your work location and/or customer requirements." So basically my company has to work with the contracting officer on the government side to determine if my request for accommodation can also be accepted on the customer (government) site. We are currently working from home, and have been ever since the original shutdown, and from everything I've been hearing is the telework will most likely be permanent. So I'm hoping that the government side doesn't refuse to let me work on the contract. But either way, I'm not getting fired from my company for the time being.

ETA: I based my religious accommodation request on the following three issues:

1. It is my firm religious belief that God commands us to go to Him in prayer when we face major decisions in life, and he is faithful to lead us in those decisions. And I have been in much prayer over these vaccines, and it is my firm belief that God has led me not to take them.

2. It is my firm religious belief that my body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, and that it has been bought with the ultimate price, His sacrifice. And if I inject anything into His temple that I truly believe He is leading not to do, then I am defiling His temple.

3. I believe that every child of God will have to stand at the judgement seat of Christ to give an account of the things done in the body. And that if I defile His temple by injecting something that he has clearly led me not to take after months of praying about it, then that is sin in God's sight and I'll be held accountable for it.

I left out the whole abortion angle. But everything I stated in my religious request is 100% my true religious beliefs, so my conscious is clear on it. I didn't use the abortion angle because while I am adamantly opposed to abortions, apparently they use the same fetal cell line test that was used in the mRNA testing on everything from Tums to Ibuprofen. So I couldn't say with a clear conscious that I'd never take any drug that used fetal cell line testing done on it.

It’s sad we have to even go this route. I hate our government

be as vague as possible... goes against my personal beliefs of putting anything foreign into my body etc

I feel like I’ve posted the link to the one that I used a million times. It was approved.
