If you would like to help others have access to my Religious Exemption Letter template to help support their religious freedom, please follow me on Instagram: @brittanyschreiber I have tried to make the letter as accessible as possible. Unfortunately, TikTok/Insta keeps taking it down. I am going to continue to share resources for free with everyone who is following me. I have now posted a work exemption letter template, one for Canada and will be posting one written by a lawyer in a few days. I received thousands of messages and unfortunately cannot respond to every message but if you follow me I will try my best to answer all of you first. This letter was approved by my University in New York and has been working for people in various fields and universities. I have literally been getting death threats but will continue to fight for you and your religious freedoms!
Religious Exemption Letter Template
August 6th, 2021
Dear Long Island University,
Under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, individuals have the right to be free from discrimination on the basis of religion. As part of their religious beliefs, many individuals object to vaccines. Employers and universities are required to accommodate religious observances and practices, unless doing so imposes an undue hardship on the business.
As a practicing Christian taking the vaccine goes against my religious beliefs for multiple reasons. The first reason is that the vaccine was developed from aborted fetal cell lines. It is well known that many born again Christians and Catholics are against abortion.
The Bible states:
Exodus 20:13 “You shall not murder.
Psalm 139:13-16 “13 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. 14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. 15 My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. 16 Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.”
Jeremiah 1:5 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”
Proverbs 6:16-17 “16 There are six things the LORD hates, seven that are detestable to him: 17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood”
Job 31:15 “15 Did not he who made me in the womb make them? Did not the same one form us both within our mothers?”
I believe in the Bible and that God forms babies in the womb. God has a plan and a purpose for their lives. Aborting a baby in the womb is murder. It is taking away another human’s life and is a sin. Taking the vaccine which was created from tests on aborted fetal cell lines goes against my religion as it is the product of abortion which is a sin.
In addition, my second reason has to do with free will. The Bible says that man has free will. We have the right to decide what medication and vaccinations that we can take.
The Bible says:
Genesis 1:26 “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.”
Genesis 3:22 “And the Lord God said, “Now that the man has become like one of us, knowing good and bad, what if he should stretch out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever!”
These verses explain that humans are made in the image of God and are given the same mental capacities as our creator. Therefore I am granted free will to think for myself and make my own decisions in this world. In Genesis 3:22 it is explaining how I have the consciousness to choose what is good and bad. With my conscious mind, I have the right to exercise my free will that was granted to me by God.
That being said, I am using my free will to reject the vaccine. I have numerous concerns about the vaccine. One important concern is that there is no research on the long term effects of the vaccine. I have met many people who have gotten sick with Covid after taking the vaccine which makes me doubt its effectiveness. In addition there is very little research done on how the vaccine affects fertility.
The Bible says:
Genesis 1:28 “And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea,”
I do not want to partake in any vaccine that could jeopardize my ability to reproduce and have babies which is something God has called me to do.
In Matthew 9:22 “Jesus turned, and seeing her he said, “Take heart, daughter; your faith has made you well.” And instantly the woman was made well.”
I have faith in the body that God gave me to fight Covid. I have never taken flu shots and never gotten sick. In addition Covid has a 99% survival rate. I believe that taking the vaccine would be an expression of my lack of faith in my God given immune system.
I would like to help keep Long Island University safe which is why I am requesting to take remote learning. By taking remote learning, vaccinated members of the community do not have to worry about my vaccination status. I think this would be a win-win solution.
The past year I have done my studies remotely online and was very successful. I believe that this would be the best solution to protect my religious freedom and keep Long Island University safe.
Thank you for taking the time to read my letter and considering my religious exemption request.
Sincerely,
Brittany Schreiber

Is the Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 recognized in Canada?
This is specific to the US.
No…that is united states code but you should have your own civil rights laws in Canada Doug!
Yes! Canada and the United States is one of the same. The Consitution for the United States applies to North, Central, and South America.
Can you send me a copy of your letter
Cut and paste and change the letter to fit your personal needs
I’m looking forward to your response Alex! I’m in an almost identical situation to you as aCanadian myself so I hope that our outcomes are favourable towards our freedoms and interests.
Thank you so much for doing this because I did not know what to do?
Will this really work? Even the Pope came out and said it’s ok and that religious exemption doesn’t apply to this vaccine for Catholics & Christians.
Christians do not listen to the pope only Catholics do.
This Catholic doesn’t listen to the obviously liberal democrat pope along with millions of others so count me as part of your flock and we’re all Christians ! Imho
It is what you personally believe it. What your religion is based off. You can edit this and make it your own letter to a governor or a school/work place. She used quotes out of the Bible to make this example very clear. Therefor the pope does not have a say in wether or not he can get you to get the vaccination as it is your choice as the Bible has stated. As well as the civil rights act.
The Pope messed it up for a lot of people. He needed to stay out of it. He turned his back on his children. I am so upset at him.
The pope only can speak for him and his followers! Not Christians
He intentionally did that . The Catholic Church, unfortunately, has been infiltrated just as all the world is. The world I in complete turmoil!
The Pope doesn’t over rule our Constitution and our laws
Will this work for high school students? They are not required to take vaccine for school but to participate in any sports they do. How would I word the bottom portion of the letter?
Everyone knows the pope is a liberal democrat by his own actions. Imho
You are amazing!
Thank you so much for this !!!
Did they only approve the exemption because of remote? I dont see that LIU has an option for that online. My son will be going there in sept and he does not want to get the vaccine but wants to be in person
The founding fathers would be proud of you. I’m going to use your template for my university at Cal State Fullerton. Thanks so much! You’re helping to fight tyranny!
Hi! I also go to CSUF and will be using this to help with my exemption letter, have you gotten an approval yet?
Thank you for fighting for our freedom. Keep being a soldier in God’s Army! God bless you!
Thank you for your willingness to share your information with all of us who are in the same situation nationwide. May we all band together and stand up for our freedoms 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 God bless you!
Thank you for this!! I will definitely be using it as a nurse who doesn’t believe in this shot!
Hey, I was wondering if the letter worked for you? I also work in the medical field. My job and University is also making it mandatory. I tried getting an exemption letter from my doctor but he was so rude and unprofessional.
What are you going to put for keeping the workplace safe?

Thank you for creating this letter. I was sitting wondering where to start. I will definitely be using your template and see what the outcome will be with my employer. Again, thank you!!!!
Much appreciated
Thank you so much, you have been a blessed in so many people’s lives, I was very concerned of how we the Christians has been forced to deny what we believe which is the powerful word of God the truth. Praise the lord ! God will always be with you.
The lord will keep you from all harm he will watch over your life; the lord will watch your coming and going, both now and forevermore. Psalm 121:7-8
Thank you so much!
