Notarized Affidavit of Religious Belief for Exemption from COVID Vaccination
1) I,_________, am a practicing Catholic, and my belief is sincere and meaningful.
2) The Catholic church has, over the centuries, extensively addressed issues related to bodily integrity ("Medical-Rape") generally a vaccination specifically, including issues of voluntarieness and vaccine mandates.
3) Regarding COVID in particular, the COngregation for the Docrtine of the Faith (CDF) published a "Note on the morality of using some anti-Covid-19 vaccines"1 on December 21, 2020, stating that;
a) COVID-19 vaccines that used cell lines originating from aborted fetuses are morally compromised. (Note: The J&J vaccine "is an adenoviral vector grown in the PER.C6 cell line that originated from a healthy 18-week-old aborted child." 2 The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines where tested using the "Morraly compromised HEK-293 cell line," originating from "a child aborted in the Netherlands in 1972."3] Catholics have a moral duty to avoid use of such vaccines.
b) However, this moral duty "is not obligatory if there is a grave danger, such as the otherwise uncontainabhle spread" of COVID-19.
c) "In the absence of other meeans to stop or even prevent the epidemic, the common good may recommend vaccination,"
d) "In such case, all vaccinations recognized as clinically safe and effective can be used in good conscience."
e) "At the same time, practical reason makes evident that vaccination is not, as a rule, a moral obligation and that, therefore, it must be voluntary."
f) "Those who, […] for reasons of conscience, refuse vaccines produced with cell lines from aborted fetueses, must do their utmost to avoid, by other prophylactisc means and appropriate behaviot, brvominh vehicles for the transmission of the infections agent."
4) To summarize, the moral duty to avoid use of these theree CFOVID accines is not obligatory only if:
a) "The spread of COVID-19 is otherwise uncontainable,
b) "There is absence of other means by which to stop or prefent the epidemic,
c) "The vaccines are clinically safe, and
d) The choice to receive a vaccine must be voluntary.
5) If any element is not satisfied, the moral duty to avoid using the vaccines is obligatory. In which case, _______'s vaccine mandate violates my Catholic faith.
6) Even if all elements where satisfied, a non-obligatory moral duty does not equate to me taking a vaccine, much less authorizing a vaccine mandate. It merely means that, as a Catholic, I have the option to evaluate the evidence myself and make my own prudential decision whether to receive a vaccine; to repeat, "it must be voluntary." I can choose to not take the vaccine, in which case I must "avoid, by other prophylactiv means and appropriate behavior, becoming [a] vehicle for the transmaission of the infection agent."
7) Here, all four elements have yet to be satisfied.
8) The threshold issue is voluntariness: "vaccination is not, as a rule, a moral obligation and […], therefore, it must be voluntary." This mandate violates my Catholic faith because it is, by definition, not voluntary.
9) Rather than a coercive mandate,__ should emphasize the virtue of Prudence, allowing each student/employee to make a prudential decision whether to take a COVID vaccine. Failing this,___ should follow the science by changing the mandate to acknowledge two ________ additional "means by which to stop or prevent the epidemic," two additional forms of protection that are equalvalent to or greater than protection gained via some or all of the three COVID vaccines:
a) Naturally acquaried innumity via prior COVID infection and subsequent recovery; and
b) Prophylactic ivermectiv, taken weekly in accordance with the FLCCC Alliance protocol, [4]
10) Consistent with the CDF note, I am already taking the most effective "other prophylactic means" as an alteration to vaccination: ivermectin taken weekly as a prophylactic, per the FCCC Alliance protocol. Regarding ivermectin's efficacy against COVID, as both prophylaxis and treatment, please see the attached 4 page summary. The full 47-page meta-analysis is at https://ivmmeta.com/.
