So, why did the hospital grant the exemption then? Seems flimsy to me. Maybe they just didnt want to loose her as a nurse?
There are reasons to get a religious exemption that don't involve abortion. The state cannot come between a person, their conscience, and their God. If they have a sincerely held belief the vaccine is not the right choice for them, they should not be compelled. Often, a person can get a letter from their religious leader vouching for their sincerity.
Of the major religions practiced in the United States, only the Church of Christ, Scientist (whose adherents are known as "Christian Scientists") and the Dutch Reformed Church are the two religious groups that openly discourage vaccination.
Why didn't you just google "what religions forbid vaccination" ???????

If I claim to be my own God, I doubt that would earn me an exemption - freedom of religion is a joke.
In the legal sense, a 'fetus' is a separate and real life...
In cases where a person murders a pregnant woman, TWO COUNTS of murder are imposed...In order to impose a murder count, it MUST be a real human life. Its that simple.
Ive seen a case where a drunk driver hit and killed a pregnant woman and he was charged with TWO counts.
A fetus cannot be a real life in one case and not in another, its either/or.
I'll need you to link us up with some facts to back your psychobabble spin. While you are searching pay attention to personhood as it applies in Roe. You can't be taken seriously if you don't speak the proper words. Words have meaning. Use them correctly or lose. Or just lose anyway based on your false concept. Have a nice day
Religious choices can be strange to the rest of us. The Amish get blood tests at our hospital lab, but they bring their own blood draw equipment with them. I have no idea why.
I first heard my dad say that all 3 vaccines contained fetal stem cells from abortions...but when I asked 4 separate doctors and 3 pharmacists, they told me only the Phfizer vaccine used technology derived from abortion...
Fast forward to yesterday, I found out a friend of mine who is an RN at a large hospital was granted a 'religious exemption' so she does not have to get the vaccine in order to keep her job...
I cannot understand why the hospital would grant the religious exemption if the vaccines did not contain abortion material?
Did you ask your "friend" on what basis she sought a religious exemption?
You know a post is junk when it contains words like child/baby/person to describe a fetus. Time for brunch, I am still torn between scrambled or sunny side up chickens
What in your estimation is the fundamental difference between a child and a fetus?
If one is a person and the other a non-person, what quality/characteristic does the person have that the non-person does not?
I don't know the lady's religion -- the Catholic church has said to go ahead and get the vaccine....but not sure some of the more right leaning churches in the USA have.
What's a "right leaning church" and why would someone have to belong to one in order to claim a religious exemption to the vaccine mandates?
If I claim to be my own God, I doubt that would earn me an exemption - freedom of religion is a joke.
As long as you don't seem insincere about it, no reason it shouldn't hold up. Better live it, though, if you're going to claim it. Get your ducks in a row before you try it, and don't leave anything out.
