I wish it were possible to eliminate the religious exemptions.
FTR, when and if my doctor tells me its time to roll up my sleeve for a booster, I'll do it. But I also respect the next guy's right to say, "sorry, I respectfully decline". That's what we allow in America. When we stop doing that, we stop being America."The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, .. I'd worn them for weeks, and they needed the air"

I don't think that case as much as this comment is made. You don't need to be an expert on virology to disagree with lifestyle policy decisions and health mandates imposed by virologists. Virologists cannot tell you what the long term risks of mRNA vaccines are, because nobody knows. They also have no special credibility when it comes to the moral tradeoff between forcing a medication on somebody to protect somebody else who who has voluntarily chosen not to take that medication. That's a complex decision that involves examining history to see how that type of power has been abused in the past, and other nuances."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham Lincoln

I respectfully disagree. I was raised around a lot of good, law-abiding people who only wish to be left alone to practice their faith without government interference. These are honest, hard working people who do violence to nobody, and keep to their own business. They simply wish to rely on God to provide their well-being. That's as American as any law ever written in this country.

I know DSL disagrees that it is easy, but when my now grown son was in school, all you had to do was sign a religious exemption form. Lots did. I feel most weren’t sincere in some religious belief to get out of a MMR and TDAP. Yeah, we had a measles outbreak in the area and it still kinda pisses me off. So, my comment really wasn’t borne from Covid vaccinations. Maybe things have changed and DSL is right and it’s harder to claim you worship some mythological deity that will protect you from disease and opt out and endanger the populace."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham Lincoln
