Are we, the Church, protesting too much rather than understanding what Christ taught the apostles in Mark 9:40? “For the One whose is not against us is for us.” Like the men casting out demons in Christ’s name outside of Christ’s followers, perhaps its best we leave them alone and utilize the foundation of “inspiration” or “Interest” in Christ to formulate opportunities for us to expound on the Gospel.

There is some real false equivalence going on online right now surrounding the supposed moral incoherence of a religious exemption for the COVID vaccine due to the involvement of aborted cell lines and (in the case of the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines) human desecration and vivisection in the development of these vaccines. The truth is, there is a crucial difference between origin and later misuse that rends the arguments against religious exemption invalid.
