A sample "Letter" that can be modified and notarized
AFFIDAVIT
I/We, _________________________, Sui Juris, Free, Natural Flesh and Blood Human Being(s), state Citizen(s) of the Georgia Republic affirm: Be it known to all courts, governments, and other parties that:
Being (a person/people) of Strong Christian Morals, it is against (my/our) Deep, Sincerely Held, Religious Convictions to accept the injection of any foreign substance into (my Body/our Bodies) or the Body of (my/our) Child. This includes, but is not limited to, any and all, Vaccinations, Shots, Tests for Diseases, Oral Vaccines, Epidermal Patches and in any other way that Live or Killed Bacterium, Viruses, Pathogens, Germs, or any other Microorganisms, may be introduced into or upon (my/our) newborn's body.
This written statement to exempt (my/our) newborn from any immunizations, newborn screening, and the Vitamin K shot, because (I/we) hold genuine and sincere personal religious beliefs which are inconsistent with these medical procedures & experimentation. The practice of vaccination and the injection or application of any foreign substance is contrary to (my/our) conscientiously held religious beliefs and practices, and violates the free exercise of (my/our) religious principles.
The Hepatitis-B vaccine supposedly protects against a disease that is only transmitted through multiple sexual partners or street IV drug users and therefore usurps (my/our) parental authority to condemn such activity in (my/our) child. The acceptance of this vaccine promotes sexual promiscuity and immoral behavior in direct contradiction to the teachings of (my/our) faith.
The prescribing information on Vitamin K shot states that fatalities are an adverse reaction according to the Merck pharmaceutical package insert.
_http://vaclib.org/chapter/inserts.htm#vitK
"WARNING - INTRAVENOUS USE Severe reactions, including fatalities, have occurred during and immediately after the parenteral administration of AquaMEPHYTON® (Phytonadione)."
A conflict arises because (my/our) religious convictions are predicated on the belief that all life is sacred. God's commandment "Thou Shall Not Kill" applies to the practice of injection of carcinogenic substances that can kill.
(We / I) {First and Last name(s)}, as the {(parent (s) / guardian(s)} of ______________________(name of newborn child) are exercising (our/my) rights under the First Amendment of the US Constitution, Ga. Code Ann. § 31-12-7, and O.C.G.A. § 20-2-771 (4e) to receive Religious Exemption from Vaccination & testing.
(We are/I am) prepared to sue in Federal Court by invoking 42 USC 1983 if Vitamin K injection, Hepatitis B vaccine, and Newborn Screening is forced upon (our/my) child.
Applicable law has been interpreted to mean that a religious belief is subject to protection even though no religious group espouses such beliefs or the fact that the religious group to which the individual professes to belong may not advocate or require such belief. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as amended Nov. 1, 1980; Part 1605.1-Guidelines on Discrimination Because of Religion.
Our legal rights are guaranteed by the free exercise clause of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Recent court decisions have upheld the rights of individuals seeking exemptions from immunizations based upon personal and religious reasons. On the U.S. Supreme Court level in Frazee V. Illinois Dept. of Security, 489 U.S. 829, it was found that a state may not deny an exemption simply because a person is not a member of a formal religious organization.
The Lord Jesus Christ and Our Creator are the only source of protection of (my body/our bodies) and that of (my/our) family that (I/we) can accept.
(I/We) affirm that vaccination & injections of any foreign substances and proteins conflict with (my/our) religious beliefs as stated above. Therefore, (I/we) would request that you accommodate (my/our) religious beliefs and practices by exempting (my/our) newborn child from any vaccinations, injections and testing of any kind.
Rest assured that (my family and I/our family) do practice a form of immunization that keeps our immune systems strong and is in keeping with Biblical principles.

If one is considering using the Religious exemption, it might be useful to KNOW. . .Religious Conviction
"Protecting the free exercise of religion is one of the first duties of government. The greatness of government can be measured by its commitment to protecting religious freedom."
Mathew Staver, President & General Counsel
Liberty Counsel (_www(dot)liberty(at)lc.org)
Agents of the state authorized to play a role in the implementation of vaccine mandates are prohibited from requesting administrative proof of sincere religious belief or affiliation. Religious exemption from vaccine mandates cannot be denied.
Many vaccine advocates have difficulty understanding the religious basis for objecting to vaccination and the forced compliance of this medical procedure. Many Christians also are unaware of the ethical problems with vaccination.
In order to be confident in the expression of a religious objection to vaccination, there must be a clear understanding of scriptural law as it relates to keeping the body free from toxic, foreign and harmful substances. So that we may not be denied the right to freely exercise our religious beliefs, we must KNOW how our courts profess to protect this fundamental human need.
The first thing that everyone must KNOW is that Amendment I of the Constitution of the United States protects our religious right to freedom of conscience:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
The Florida Religious Freedom Restoration Act ("FRFRA") grants expansive religious rights and the free exercise of religion, even more so than the Constitution. The second thing that everyone must KNOW is that vaccine laws explicitly provide for religious exemption. Agents of the state, including the physicians who administer vaccines, may not presume that they have the authority to judge sincere religious beliefs or the power to deny religious exemptions. The courts have repeatedly warned the Department of Health that it "cannot circumvent the Legislature's clear limitation of its powers or expand its power beyond its statutory authority." Through scripture we learn about the nature of God and man, how we can lead a more perfect life, and what we must do to survive. Implicit in our understanding of this message is acceptance that man was created in the image of God and is filled with the Holy Spirit. Our Bodies are the temple of God's Holy Spirit
~Genesis 1:27 teaches us that God created man in His own image.
~1 Corinthians 3:16-17 implores us to "know that you are the temple of God, and that the spirit of God dwells in you".
~2 Corinthians 6:16-1 "For you are the temple of the Living God." God says, "I will dwell in them, and walk in them."
We learn from scripture that we are miraculously designed in God's image. In all religions, God is the image of purity and vitality. To ensure that we could achieve and enjoy the same purity and vitality, God created laws in nature to safeguard against the destruction of life. When abided by, the laws of nature give birth to life, cultivate health and keep us blemish-free. For our own protection, God's laws of nature determine what our bodies can and cannot tolerate.
There are scriptural passages that teach us why it is not right to vaccinate. Vaccines are comprised of foreign proteins, and vaccination is the forcible procedure for putting foreign proteins in our bodies. Scripture gives specific instructions about how we are to care for our bodies and repeatedly warns against defiling the body. We are commanded to keep these temples clean, pure and holy.
~1 Peter 1:15-16 teaches us "as He which hath called you isholy, so be you holy in all manner of conversation (life); Because it is written, be you holy, for I am holy."
~Leviticus 11:44-45 tells us to keep the body clean in order to be holy. "You shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and you shall be holy."
~Ephesians 5:27 and ~Romans 12:1 beseech us to preserve our bodies without blemish or any such thing and tells us that it is our duty to do so.
Our bodies should be "holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service."
~1 Corinthians 3:16-17 teaches us that to be holy we must follow the laws of nature. This scriptural passage warns that if any man defile the temple of God, he shall be destroyed, "for the temple of God is holy, which you are." The destruction of living tissue, and eventually the body, is a natural consequence of a degenerative disease process that begins when the body becomes defiled.
~Deuteronomy Chapter 14 and ~Leviticus Chapter 11 To keep us free from blemish, the laws of nature stipulate that our bodies cannot tolerate foreign substances. For our protection, these scriptural passages list the clean and unclean proteins that are both acceptable and unacceptable in our bodies in any manner.
Children are a blessing from God to us
~Deuteronomy 28:4a teaches us that our children are holy. "Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body." The attention we pay to the stewardship of our own bodies must be practiced as well in the loving care of our offspring.
~Revelation 12:17 Blessed are the children because they are born desiring to keep the commandments of God. The life of a holy child must not be defiled with foreign and unclean proteins. Disease, in both its natural and manufactured forms, is a threat to the life of man and child: "the dragon was wroth with the women, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed,"
~Luke 17:2 As stewards of their spirits and for their protection, we are obligated to keep their bodies free from blemish: "It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones." <
In order that we may actively and purposefully engage in practices that sanctify and purify our bodies, scripture compels us to choose for ourselves and our children the foods, medicines and activities that preserve and promote life.
Religious conviction, law and the medical code of ethics
~1 Corinthians 6:19 2 and ~Corinthians 6:16 Christians think of life as a gift of God and the body as a marvelous work of divine creation to be reverenced as a temple of God. The human person is not only a living body, but a body living with spiritual life open to share in the eternal life of God and which must be kept holy. This tenet forms the basis for religious objection to the practice of vaccination.
~Psalm 139:13-16 "For I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are thy works;" and my soul knows that well.
~Revelation 14:12 and ~Deuteronomy 13:18 challenges us "to do that which is right in the eyes of the Lord thy God." To be good stewards of God's creation, we must act our conscience and obey the laws of nature.
The fact that some vaccines are cultured in aborted fetal tissue presents another ethical concern with the practice of vaccination and the policy of forced compliance of this procedure.
When we believe that murder is sinful, the use of vaccines derived from the tissue of an aborted fetus is offensive and morally repugnant. When we accept a vaccine produced in aborted fetal tissues, we participate in the purposeful ending of a life and further violate the dignity of the unborn person.
~Exodus 20:13 "You shall not murder."
~Deuteronomy 30:19-20a "I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life," so you and your seed may live.
Both the Constitution and the medical code of ethical conduct honor our sincere need to consciously live according to our spiritual beliefs.
The Constitution enables us to witness to the sacredness of human life in both word and action. The Constitution denies Congress the power to create laws which prohibit the free exercise one's religious beliefs and it prohibits governmental interference with the free exercise of religion.
An ethical medicine is a system of loving care that respects the right of a patient to informed consent and compassionate treatment. Medical ethics requires that all physicians abide by the Hippocratic Oath, which promises no harm to the patient.
Because vaccination defiles the body with foreign substances known to cause death and injury, we have a religious duty to abstain from this practice if we are truly committed to our faith. The community, our lawmakers and the medical providers who advocate vaccination are obliged by law and ethics to respect our beliefs.
~1 Corinthians 8 St Paul urges respect for the conscience of others. Any laws restricting conscientious objection to practices that conflict with religious belief are unethical.
The Bible is explicit in it's instructions to us as a people. Living a Christian faith means having a commitment to keeping the body blemish-free so that we may have abundant life. There is no scriptural support for injecting poisons or any virus into the bloodstream to cure or prevent disease. Scripture is filled, however, with references to the care of the human body. People who object to the practice of vaccination for religious reasons can be confident that they are obeying the Word of God.

Legal Exemptions to Vaccination
Reprinted from National Vaccine Information Center.
Medical, philosophical or personal belief exemptions are worded differently in each state. To use an exemption for your child, you must know specifically what the law says in your state.
Philosophical Exemption:
The following 18 states allow exemption to vaccination based on philosophical, personal or conscientiously held beliefs: Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Idaho, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Washington and Wisconsin.
In many of these states, individuals must object to all vaccines, not just a particular vaccine in order to use the philosophical or personal belief exemption. Many state legislators are being urged by federal health officials and medical organizations to revoke this exemption to vaccination. If you are objecting to vaccination based on philosophical or personal conviction, keep an eye on your state legislature as public health officials may seek to amend state laws to eliminate this exemption.
Religious Exemption:
All states allow a religious exemption to vaccination except Mississippi and West Virginia.
The religious exemption is intended for people who hold a sincere religious belief opposing vaccination to the extent that if the state forced vaccination, it would be an infringement on their right to exercise their religious beliefs. Some state laws define religious exemptions broadly to include personal religious beliefs, similar to personal philosophical beliefs. Other states require an individual who claims a religious exemption to be a member of The First Church of Christ, Scientist (Christian Science) or another bonafide religion whose written tenets include prohibition of invasive medical procedures such as vaccination. (This kind of language has been ruled unconstitutional when it has been challenged in state Supreme Courts.) Some laws require a signed affidavit from the pastor or spiritual advisor of the parent exercising religious exemption that affirms the parents' sincere religious belief about vaccination, while others allow the parent to sign a notarized waiver. Prior to registering your child for school, you must check your state law to verify what proof may be needed.
Due to differences in state laws, the National Vaccine Information Center does not recommend or provide a prewritten waiver for religious exemption because it may not conform with what is required in your state, and may actually draw attention to your child, and you may be singled out and challenged.
If you are challenged, you could end up in litigation brought by your state or county health department to prove your religious beliefs. The religious exemption is granted based on the First Amendment of the Constitution, which is the right to freely exercise your religion. Because citizens are protected under the First Amendment of the United States, a state must have a "compelling State interest" before this right can be taken away. One "compelling State interest" is the spread of communicable diseases. In state court cases which have set precedent on this issue, the freedom to act according to your own religious belief is subject to reasonable regulation with the justification that it must not threaten the welfare of society as a whole.
However, parents have successfully obtained religious exemptions to vaccination. The constitutional right to have and exercise personal religious beliefs, whether you are of the Christian, Jewish, Muslim or other faith, can be defended. If you exercise your right to religious exemption, you must be prepared to defend it. It is always best to define your personal religious beliefs opposing vaccination in your own words when you write a letter defending them. If you do belong to a church and take the time to educate the head of your local church about the sincerity of your personal religious beliefs regarding vaccination, obtaining a letter from your pastor, priest, rabbi or other spiritual counselor affirming the sincerity of your religious beliefs may also be advisable.
Medical Exemptions:
All 50 states allow medical exemption to vaccination. Proof of medical exemption must take the form of a signed statement by a Medical Doctor (M.D.) or Doctor of Osteopathy (D.O.) that the administering of one or more vaccines would be detrimental to the health of an individual. Most doctors follow the AAP and CDC guidelines. Most states do not allow Doctors of Chiropractic (D.C.) to write medical exemptions to vaccination.
Some states will accept a private physician's written exemption without question. Other states allow the state health department to review the doctor's exemption and revoke it if health department officials don't think the exemption is justified.
Proof of Immunity:
Some states will allow exemptions to vaccination for certain diseases if proof of immunity can be shown to exist. Immunity can be proven if you or your child have had the natural disease or have been vaccinated. You have to check your state laws to determine which vaccines in your state can be exempted if proof of immunity is demonstrated.
Private medical laboratories can take blood (a titer test) and analyze it to measure the level of antibodies, for example, to measles or pertussis that are present in the blood. If the antibody level is high enough, according to accepted standards, you have obtained proof of immunity and may be able to use this for an exemption to vaccination.

Private medical laboratories can take blood (a titer test) and analyze it to measure the level of antibodies, for example, to measles or pertussis that are present in the blood. If the antibody level is high enough, according to accepted standards, you have obtained proof of immunity and may be able to use this for an exemption to vaccination.

Hi Pete02. From the research I've done so far, it appears that all possible scenarios will play out in different places.
If you are planning to claim exemption(s), it's a good idea to go ahead and look up some stuff that applys to you in your area and get the paperwork ready. It's also possible for a person to be required to defend their decision in court, so I'd be thinking of preparing for that as well, if necessary.
Just my thoughts on it.

Some scenarios can indeed be a nightmare. Heres one thats interupted my sleep this night.
I can think of nothing more sinister than a massive culling of human population on a grand scale , sparing only the children who are aged five years or under and pregnant women.
People will mainly line up for the vaccination in a figure of speech.
What if Vaccination is designed to kill within a day or two after injection ?
Possibly all these deaths would be propagandised and portrayed as being those people who had not been vaccinated and thus reiterating how deadly this virus really is and why all must be vaccinated immediately.
This would eradicate history as we know it from the memory of the young populace that will inherit the future.Such events as 9 11 will simply vanish from history.
Indeed the second world war as the "C"s have said , will indeed have seemed like a dress rehearshal
Sperm can soon be bought from Walmart!

Hi Buddy,
From the wealth of information you've provided, you have answered my question. Much thanks ;) I agree with you, to be prepared seems to be the only way to handle it. If push should come to shove tho, I guess to just go with the flow would also be the best way to handle it. Especially since the C's tell us that to fight against it is not necessarily in our best interest.

Here in the UK, it appears that mandatory vaccinations are being brought in very much under the radar. Free choice in vaccinations has been removed from the people, and from parliament, and handed to a group of invisible persons who appear to have ties to the drug companies.
The Child Health Safety blog (_http://childhealthsafety.wordpress.com/) has a most interesting but rather long article UK Government Hands Drug Industry Control of Childhood Vaccination at this url: _http://childhealthsafety.wordpress.com/2009/03/08/pharma-decide-uk-vaccination/ (apologies if this was already carried on SOTT). Here’s a few excerpts:
Vaccine Awareness Network at _http://www.vaccineriskawareness.com/ is a UK site, who also discuss the above issues on their front page. They also have large amounts of information about vaccines.
Sounds like ‘you have the right to do what we tell you to do’.
Vaccine Awareness Network offer names, email and postal addresses of UK politicians who support mandatory vaccinations.

I'm not sure they were referring to possibly deadly vaccinations. Here's a couple things they have said about the topic:

Well I am going to jump into the pool, no matter what.
Is it possible that the wave has already begun, that we are now at fourth density but still physicaly?
Is it possible that Christ is here and now teaching in this forum?
Is it possible that the needed for work and clean ourselves will lead us to be able to see that everything has already began?
I don't think so... Some C's sessions mentions 4D "glimpses" that Laura & co. experienced, and they were pretty different from our 3D perspective. I experienced some kind of tiny glimpse myself, so I guess that if we were, even partially, in 4D, we'll know it.
This probably refer to the notions of "master" and "groups" as we already talked about. If the group is the master, then maybe the whole group is becoming the Christ, or... Hmm, actually I don't have a clue about that^^

Thanks for clearing that up for me Laura :D I'm still searching for other ways around this should the situation arise. I'm hoping that since I live in one state and work in another, I can somehow confuse them both into thinking I was inoculated already! I know.. I know.. wishful thinking ;)

Yup, notice the "entire population to be vaccinated" story was quietly slipped out on a Sunday evening, so not enough time to make to morning papers. Also try finding ANY reference to it on the BBC today, nothing, zip, zero.
Other places are covering it though, a few examples below, not important enough for the Beeb though it seems. Go take a look at the majority of comments, people are not happy at the prospect, but then that might only be a reflection of those people angered enough to post a comment, a far larger number might be all too happy to go along with it.
The Independent: Plan to vaccinate UK population against swine flu
The Scotsman: Everyone in the UK to be vaccinated against swine flu pandemic
The Daily Mail: Health bosses announce 20m will be vaccinated against swine flu by Christmas... as virus reaches Downing Street
The Times: Swine flu vaccine rushed through safety checks
The story is now beginning to morph into "might not have enough vaccine available and/or approved in time", maybe they were just testing public reaction?
Associated Press: WHO: Swine flu vaccine may not be fully licensed until end of 2009
The Star: Swine flu vaccine production 'less than optimal'
