Guest guest Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 Hi.. My totally non-vaxed daughter will be attending a summer program for a month and then a preschool in the fall and the school is saying I need something signed by a pediatrician which says why we do not vaccinate. Do I really need something signed by a doc?? I have enough trouble getting a pediatrician to not freak out on me... getting him/her to sign will be a challenge I think even though it doesn't necessarily mean they're ok with it but I'm sure they will think that way. Here is the letter I got online: The problem is that I don't want to keep my daughter from blood tests or injections of medicaion if she needs them (she's already had both done in extreme circumstance) but just vaccines so I changed the wording to just include vaccines. One thing I do not understand is one of the lines at the end that asks for a signature and is labeled: Principal, by Special Appearance, in Propria Persona, proceeding Sui Juris. Who is supposed to sign there? I can't wait to get this over with... my husband and I are really stressing over this. Thanks, -------------------------------------------------------------------- AFFIDAVIT Comes now, *********************, Sui Juris, Free, Natural Flesh and Blood Human Being, state Citizen of the New York Republic. Be it known to all courts, governments, and other parties that: Being people of Strong Christian Morals, it is against our Deep, Sincerely Held, Religious Convictions to accept the injection of Vaccinations into our Bodies and the Body of our Child. This includes any other way that Live or Killed Bacterium, Viruses, Pathogens, Germs, or any other Microorganisms, may be introduced into or upon our bodies or our child's body. This written statement to exempt my child from any immunizations, because I hold genuine and sincere personal religious beliefs which are inconsistent with these medical procedures & experimentation. The practice of vaccination is contrary to my conscientiously held religious beliefs and practices, and violates the free exercise of my religious principles. The Hepatitis-A vaccine containing MRC-5 is obtained from human babies that were electively aborted. WI-38 was created from the tissue of an aborted fetus and is used for the rubella portion of the MMR-II vaccine. A conflict arises because my religious convictions are predicated on the belief that all life is sacred. God's commandment " Thou Shall Not Kill " applies to the practice of abortion. The Hepatitis-B vaccine protects against a disease that is only transmitted through multiple sexual partners or street IV drug users and therefore usurps my parental authority to condemn such activity in my child. The acceptance of this vaccine promotes sexual promiscuity and immoral behavior in direct contradiction to the teachings of our faith.. We, ******************, as the parents of ************** are exercising our rights under the First Amendment of the US Constitution and New York Statutes § PHL 2164.9 to receive Religious Exemption from Vaccination & testing. 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. The Lord Jesus Christ and Our Creator are the only source of protection of our bodies and that of our child that we can accept. We affirm that vaccinations conflict with our religious beliefs as stated above. Therefore, we would request that you accommodate our religious beliefs and practices by exempting our child from any vaccination. Rest assured that our family does practice a form of immunization that keeps our immune systems strong and is in keeping with Biblical principles.
