My wife recently filed her annual religious exemption - from the stupid COVID deathvax, but also for the flu vax.

You get the distinct impression that they no longer care about the COVID thing but would really rather not have medicos refusing the flu vax (not that the flu vax is ANY more effective.)

Well tough shit, Big pHARMA. You made this bed, lie in it. You've totally lost the trust of the people who are paying attention.

Do they ask specific questions relating to how exactly this goes against your religious beliefs? I would like to have some idea for when my granddaughter goes to school, as she is unvaxxed.

No, but I crafted her religious exemption by among other things, specifically citing Title VII and her right to reasonable accomodations under the law.

Additionally the text specifically cites her Roman Catholic faith, and the fact that participating or benefiting in any way with the sin of abortion is morally unacceptable to Catholics, and therefore vaxxes which have been in any way developed - even tangentially - through the use of aborted fetal cell lines, contravene the Catholic faith.

Finally, I cited the fact that we attend Mass every Sunday and Holy Day of Obligation, & support the Church with our tithes, as well as donate to pro-life charities.

I did this to foreclose any arguments that the religious exemption is not based on a sincere belief.

It depends what state you are in. CA may not allow or be easy, but in FL, I just went to the health dept and asked for a religeous vaccine exemption form and they gave it no questions asked for my 3 kids...15 yrs ago

Legally, they (any entity) can't require an individual to specify religious exemption details. In the state of NC, a student religious exemption is accepted with a simple statement from a parent/guardian such as "It is my God-given right to claim a Religious Exemption on behalf of my child, (First Last)." Signed by parent/guardian and dated. All states (and colleges if that is the age of your child) have different requirements for obtaining a student religious exemption - what state are you in?
