(Trust Jesus) Workers gather in Santa Fe, N.M., to protest mandatory vaccines

[left-of-center2012]

About 200 people converged near the entrance of the New Mexico state Capitol on Friday to protest the public health order issued Tuesday by Dr. David Scrase, the state’s human services secretary and acting secretary of the Department of Health, requiring hospital and congregate care facility workers — which includes nursing homes, residential treatment centers and state correctional facilities — to be vaccinated within 10 days of Aug. 17 or risk losing their jobs.

Registered nurse, Jennifer Atler, who works as a radiology technician at two Albuquerque hospitals, said
“I am a born-again Christian,” she said. “I feel like my body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, and I feel like Jesus died for my sins and I am protected by his blood. I don’t need to be injected with an vaccine to be safe. I put my life in his hands, and I refuse to live in fear.”

Atler said she’s worked for the last year and a half without a vaccine and very little personal protective equipment. She said she’s been trained to protect herself and doesn’t need the vaccine to be safe. Atler noted more than 98 percent of known COVID-19 patients in the U.S. survive ...

Julian Baca, who has worked at the state penitentiary for 13 years, called the mandate “completely unconstitutional.” Baca wore a black T-shirt emblazoned with the words ‘Freedom is paid for with the blood of patriots.’

1. Darwin will have the last word with some of these folks.

Shameful that they’re involving children in their ridiculous bullshit.

[Texaswitchy]

2. Does make you wonder.

Well they will be begging the medical professionals soon enough for help.

[MontanaMama]

3. Is these selfish dimwits could live in a vacuum

then they could use Jesus for their PPE but they don’t. They endanger others with their stupidity. That’s the point. I am so sick of these people.

4. Pretty sure the blood of Jesus is also not approved by the FDA as a treatment for Covid.

15. DUzy!

5. If this woman is so trusting of Jesus...

Why does she work as a radiology technician? Peering into God's Holy Temple of people's bodies would seem... Hypocritical.

6. "and I am protected by his blood" - Why does she trust a weak God?

"and I am protected by his blood" - Why does she trust a weak God?

Many people thusly protected have died.

10. God's will

The mental gymnastics involved would give Kari Shrugg a run for her money.

[Mariana]

20. These people never seem to be eager to meet their Lord and Savior in person

when the virus strikes them, and they realize they really are sick. Right to the hospital they go, demanding that everything possible be done to save their pathetic lives.

7. Everyday that goes by she is

TEMPTING the LORD her GOD! ( I believe the Bible say DO NOT temp the Lord thy God?)

8. The "STILL MY PRESIDENT" shirt tells you all you need to know about their mentality.

[MiniMe]

9. Famous last words

"She said she’s been trained to protect herself and doesn’t need the vaccine to be safe"

Apparently not

[Ligyron]

12. Yeah, it's not her safety we're worried about, it's her patients and co-workers safety.

What a selfish attitude. She thinks she is so, so important because her imaginary sky daddy pays particular attention to her. Me, me, me.

[DenaliDemocrat]

11. "Scripture says, do not put the Lord thy God to the test!"

- Jesus (in other words, get the vaccine)

[GemDigger]

13. In many religions suicide is a no no.

This is nothing but suicide and murder.

[jmbar2]

14. Those two ABQ hospitals better fire her ass immediately

People should sue if they are treated by the unvacc'd and get sick.

[EarthFirst]

16. Your argument becomes invalid when your FAITH attempts to trump science...

My health & safety is to be jeopardized due to your religious beliefs?

Maybe if we just call the interment centers; “Jesus Camp” and bill it as a good ole fashioned tent revival; they’ll just show up on their own free will...

[MineralMan]

17. Just 200 people. That's the pattern.

These people are very loud and vocal, but they are few in number. We need to keep that in mind as we watch this nonsensical movement.

[keithbvadu2]

19. If you got any other vaccine in your life, your religious exemptions don't apply.
