This is the first of a three-part set on the action for religious freedom in the current legal system in the United States. Stay tuned for the next two chapters.
Americans who have been denied access to hospitals because they refuse to take a vaccination for COVID-19 are represented by Brad Dacus, chairman of the Pacific Justice Institute.
In an interview conducted in February at the National Religious Broadcasters Convention here, Dacus says,” It’s scandalous to put people on health death row just because they’re not willing to take a very provocative experimental vaccine, which has now been proven to be very counterproductive.”
Some of the Pacific Justice Institute’s consumers need organ transplant, he says, but” a majority of clinics” are denying them.
” Most say no problem, you do n’t have to be vaxxed, but these few out there are saying yes, you have to, and it just so happens we discovered they have contracts with Big Pharma”, Dacus says.
The attorney argues that “more than 99 % of those in the hospital with COVID- 19, with significant conditions, are people who were vaxxed. The non- vaxxed are not in the hospitals, and yet ]a majority of institutions ] continue to push it”.
” We’re defending individuals based on their sincerely held spiritual ideas and views, and—needless to say—we’re making great progress and saving hundreds, if not hundreds of thousands, of employment for brothers and sisters in Christ across the country”, Dacus says. ” There has been a more than a 13, 000 % increase in the number of 12- to 19- yr- olds who have disease, a pretty severe brain inflammation disease”.
Dacus cites a 2022 review from the British Medical Journal that found” online harm” from booster shots for young people.
” Booster mandates in younger adults are expected to cause a gross hurt: per COVID- 19 treatment prevented, we anticipate at least 18.5 significant negative events from mRNA vaccines, including 1.5- 4.6 booster- associated myopericarditis cases in males (typically requiring hospitalization )”, the study’s authors wrote.
Dacus explains on the radio that Christians, among others, “do n’t have to have theory” or “be a part of a particular church” to decline to take a COVID- 19 vaccine, they just “have to have a sincerely held religious conviction or faith” against it to qualify for an exemption to vaccine mandates. Some Christians note that aborted embryos were used in developing the vaccines, and that is a valid conviction, he says.
Dacus also discusses safeguarding Christians ‘ religious freedom who oppose gender ideology.
According to the attorney, one of his Christian clients in Washington state owns a Korean women’s spa, and they do n’t typically wear clothes there. One day, he recounts,” a man comes in and he says,’ Hey, I want to go to the women’s spa.’ They say,” No, this is for mothers, and there are mothers and their teenage daughters there.” Absolutely not.'”
” These women will be visually violated, to say the least, and he would be lewdly exposing himself to all these women and these little young teenage girls”, Dacus explains. This would be” criminal in any other context”, he says, but the man “leaves and he reports it to the Washington State Human Rights Commission”.
The Korean spa was sued by the state commission to compel it to allow naked men who allegedly identify as women.
The Pacific Justice Institute has filed an appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit after lower courts rendered a decision against the spa.
Dacus also criticizes the Southern Poverty Law Center, a far-left smear factory that labeled his law office an “anti-LGBT hate group” and placed it next to chapters of the Ku Klux Klan.
The lawyer for religious freedom claims that Southern Poverty Law Center is like a snake. ” They’re the most hate- filled, hate- indoctrinating organization in the country. They breed division, they breed hate, they breed misunderstanding. Their goal is to silence, to vilify, silence, and destroy”.
