Tolleson, DL. “A Moral Conscientious Objection.” (Excerpt)
Gab.com, August 31, 2021.
https://gab.com/DLTolleson/posts/106849455520707736.
The dichotomy of that statement is best realized by comparison to other events of significant importance, specifically the American Civil War the two World Wars and the Spanish Flu beginning in March of 1918.
In the case of the Civil War, there were an estimated 620,000 combat deaths, 476,000 wounded and 400,000 captured and missing. For every three people killed in combat, there were an estimated five deaths from diseases. The total death toll was about 1.5 million—or about 2.5% of the country’s population.
As for the global Wars… World War I incurred a range from around 15 to 22 million deaths and World War II from 70 to 85 million deaths (about 3% of the global population). The Spanish Flu ultimately infected nearly a third of the global population, (an estimated 500 million people) and deaths ranged from 17.4 million to 100 million—with the generally accepted death toll in the area of 25 to 50 million people.
The thing that all three of these events have in common is impact and affect. In all three examples, large percentages of people were impacted via direct involvement. But in all three examples, there were still many people who were not affected by the events.
The same cannot be said of the COVID-19 “alleged” pandemic.
Responsive to COVID-19, governments have imposed shutdowns of nationwide and worldwide economies, imposed various mask-wearing mandates offering questionable efficacy, and in cooperation with corporate media is bringing to bear nearly overwhelming pressure to receive vaccines that are demonstratively dangerous to health. In these ways every single person—nationwide and globally—has been affected by COVID-19.
But not everyone has been personally impacted by infection. In fact, most people haven’t. However, unlike the civil war, the two global wars and the Spanish flu, there is no way to prove who has actually died because of COVID-19.
The reason?
The virus has been so politicized that we cannot rely on official statistics. The evidence for this assertion comes directly from the National Vital Statistics System (NVSS) and is found on the website of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and as of March 24, 2020 indicates:
So, the government COVID death statistics are inflated with deaths from other diseases and issues. Hence, citing those numbers as indicative of a need for any mRNA vaccine is to conjure that need out of fictitious escalations of COVID-induced deaths.
In event that this evidence is thought insufficient to the assertion tendered, the aforementioned directive was clarified on April 19, 2020, during the Illinois Daily Press Briefing in which Ngozi O. Ezike, M.D., Director of the Illinois Department of Public Health, indicated:
Allow me to reiterate via quoting: “It means that if, technically, even if you died of a clear alternative cause but you had COVID at the same time it’s still listed as a COVID death. So everyone that’s listed as a COVID death doesn’t mean that that was the cause of the death, but they had COVID at the time of death.”
So, yeah, COVID might not have been the cause of death, but if COVID was detected as present—even if it wasn’t the cause of death—it was counted as a COVID death.
To borrow from the legal field’s application of Latin, this is a Res Ipsa Loquitur situation that could not exist without negligence.
Res Ipsa Loquitur, means, The thing speaks for itself.
We cannot depend on the official statistics of reported deaths, which by the very admission of the CDC, are inflated with non-COVID related deaths.
Addressing that question is the purpose of the following article. The article addresses my moral objection to the mRNA vaccines due to the underlying science involved and subsequent adverse reactions and death that have overwhelmingly demonstrated the dangers involved with these products. I also touch upon the censorship of credentialed medical opinion that contends this very premise in the face of systemic misinformation and outright lies.
I recently advocated for “using the system against itself” by recommending the FDA’s website, at which that agency notes the mRNA vaccines are offered under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA). This means these vaccines are not licensed for use in the United States, are unapproved medical products and that individuals may legally refuse them.1
I have since read of instances reporting that this is already federally a supported law.2
However the problem is, what happens when the FDA actually approves an mRNA vaccine and it becomes licensed?
In that event mRNA vaccine opposition must be on other grounds—those involving religious conviction and a moral objection that I refer to as my moral, conscientious objection.
Insofar as a religious objection, one will need to express actual faith-based and theological foundations at the core of one’s objection. There are forms being made freely available for this on the Internet and rather than offer a link to those I will return to this point later in this article. And while I do have a theological conviction in that regard, I am primarily driven by a moral objection much more attuned to my life and health. Specifically, my moral objection mostly hinges on the “life” part of that phrase.
The fact is I have a moral, conscientious objection to this particular abomination of medical science due to the fact that the vaccines literally, unequivocally and irreversibly alter our cells. They do more than just “assist” or “boost” our immune systems. These vaccines alter our immune systems—and thus us—at a molecular level in a way non-mRNA vaccines do not. The problem is apparent in the very description of these vaccines: “mRNA” represents “messenger ribonucleic acid.”
To grasp the full impact of what a startling thing this is, we need to have a basic understanding of Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).
We are basically familiar with the concept of DNA: It’s a molecule containing our genetic code—the very blueprint of existence. It is the essential foundation necessary to who we are and how we function. When we see a representation of our DNA, it is a long, double-stranded molecule (the famous “double helix”) made up of pieces (or “bases”) and we have these within EACH nucleus of our bodies’ some 30 trillion cells.3 These pieces, or bases, are the code of life—the genetic language of the cell. They are the blueprint4 that manufactures proteins, which in turn are the fundamental components of all living cells and include innumerable substances, such as enzymes, hormones and antibodies. These are necessary for the proper functioning of all living organisms.5
To interpret and utilize the blueprint of the DNA, something must “unzip” or “expose” the strands of the DNA, and then take that data (in the form of enzymes) and translate it “into a mobile, intermediate message, called ribonucleic acid (RNA).”6
That “something,” the thing that “translates” the data into the RNA is called “messenger RNA” (AKA, mRNA) and it carries the instructions for making proteins from a person’s DNA to a person’s cells.7 And as I indicated two paragraphs ago, proteins are fundamental components of every living cell of our body.
So in keeping with the metaphor of DNA being an individual’s blueprint, mRNA is the employee communicating the blueprint’s message of what the rest of the person’s cells are to do. It naturally follows, then, that an mRNA vaccine is a messenger employee conveying orders that are NOT being communicated from the original blueprint. This message changes the body’s cells. We are told that this “piece of mRNA that is a part of the vaccines…corresponds to a viral protein, usually a small piece of a protein found on the virus’s outer membrane” and “Individuals who get an mRNA vaccine are not exposed to the virus, nor can they become infected by the vaccine.”8
So, unlike other non-mRNA vaccines, an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine isn’t introducing a form of the virus in order to make your body develop its own immunity. Instead, it’s introducing “new software” so to speak. The answer to why there are reports of people contracting COVID-19, being disabled by various maladies and even dying—all AFTER receiving an mRNA vaccine—is because those people’s bodies reacted badly to a message that wasn’t from their original blueprint. And that’s why there are such a range of outcomes—we all have our own set of circumstances and giving everyone the same non-blueprint specific “message” renders differing results. Especially when that “message” is something cooked-up in a lab.
After having written the above “blueprint and employee messenger” analogy I wanted to verify the accuracy of this simplification. So I solicited the input of a microbiologist with whom I am acquainted. And while he assured me that my layman’s explanation was correctly communicated, he provided additional technical expertise. In the interest of transparency, clarity and fairness, the following call-out contains the relevant excerpt of his correspondence…
His conclusion, of course, is that the mRNA vaccines are safer than non mRNA vaccines.
And while I would ordinarily yield to his expertise in this matter, the overwhelming reports of adverse mRNA vaccine reactions is demonstrative of evidence to the contrary. There is a staggering number of these adverse events. If you do your own Internet search for “problems from an mRNA vaccines” or similar search terms, you will be inundated with a list led by issues regarding spike proteins, spike protein shedding, heart issues in the very young, Bell’s palsy, etc. I’ve even seen one study indicating mRNA vaccine-induced prions may cause neurodegenerative diseases because long-term memories are maintained by prion-like proteins.9
So, it is true—and does not matter—that an mRNA vaccine will not “give” these health issues to individuals. And that statement is true because mRNA vaccines alter the cells of people in such a way as to make them susceptible to these and other debilitating health issues—including in an unacceptable percentage of times, death.10
The only reason this evidence is not leading every broadcast is that censorship has blocked the publicizing of treatments that are safer and as effective (if not even more effective) than the vaccines.
And when I write of “evidence,” I am taking into consideration data and facts that include the following checklist…
And this list is just an infinitesimal representation of evidence that puts a “face” on what is happening. There is a WORLD of related evidence out there and it is cumulatively beyond anecdotal observation.
Up until now, your health was a private matter into which no one had a right to intrude. And actually, when the hand-wringing hysteria of the systemic agenda-driven masses is removed from the equation, it is still a private matter. Unfortunately, instead of dealing with just reality, one must now also deal with the Potemkin village of mRNA vaccine efficacy being presently perpetuated.
Thus it is that while a person may refuse a vaccine—even one licensed for use—when the federal government and employers are making employment and societal interaction contingent on such a vaccination, a principled stand is necessary to avoid falling into the line of lambs led to slaughter. First, know your rights and if facing a mandated vaccine, consult with sources that can best advise on options or represent you if you choose to litigate.
One source to utilize in this regard is Pacific Justice Institute (PJI), a non-profit legal defense organization supporting religious freedom, parental rights and civil liberties.11 The organization is involved with mRNA vaccine-related litigation cases. At their web site you can request legal assistance. For free you can watch their previous and current Zoom calls concerning mRNA vacinations.12 If you have a religious objection to an mRNA vaccine and are intent on using a form to convey this, then seek the legal advice about the content of such forms that are offered by attorneys or organizations such as PJI.
You can also avail yourself of the many Internet sources regarding COVID-19-related litigation, laws, mandates and news. For example, LexisNexis.com offers links to the COVID-19-related legislative, regulatory and executive order information of each state.13 DocketAlarm.com by Fastcase is a fee-based service for attorneys and legal professionals that also provides a weekly cumulative 10 free searches/downloads of court documents and pleadings (that’s the official name for documents constituting complaints or lawsuits when filed with courts). I have “preset” the premium COVID-19 search parameters as part of the URL in the links at footnote 14 in the Sources and References below.14 For official COVID-19/vaccine policies, mandates and positions announced by or for cities, municipalities and regions, visit the website of the National League of Cities (claiming 2,472 nationwide members). Scroll to mid-page and search by city, state, policy area or action description. For action description the single word “mandate” offers better data than the two word term, “vaccine mandate.”15 Justia.com provides similar information but focuses on COVID-19 travel restrictions via executive orders; Just scroll to, or click the state of your choice on their web page.16
Insofar as employment, you can network with your like-minded friends, look for remote from home employment or consult “No Vax Mandate” job boards that are appearing to fill this need. Three that have come to my attention are Gab’s No Vax Mandate Job Board,17 NoVaxMandate.org’s No Vax Mandate Job Board18 and Red Balloon.19
While the State of the Union in which you preside can play an important role in this matter, one thing is clear: Thousands upon thousands (possibly untold multiples of those thousands upon thousands) of reports surpasses any reasonable standard being attributed to anecdotal evidence of mRNA vaccine-related disabilities and death.
As for me, I do not think all these people are lying and they are a part of the evidence sufficient to indicate mRNA vaccines are the impetus of these horrible outcomes. Hence, my moral, conscientious objection (and an unspecified percentage of religious objection). An mRNA vaccine will expose me to potential disability and death by altering me at molecular level in ways that God neither designed nor intended.
In the end it is you who must decide what evidence you are willing to accept and what consequences you are willing to risk. And to quote one of my favorite movie lines, “Some things are true whether you believe in them or not.”
