vaccine mandates as performative religion

once you realize it's about contrition not inoculation, this makes more sense.

brethren, sistren, complex pronounren gather round as matters of great import require explication for many among you seem puzzled by the seeming incongruity of imposing vaccination mandates upon those already possessed of naturally generated covid resistance.

congregants, be puzzled no more. all shall be made plain.

Three large health care providers in Massachusetts -- Mass General Brigham, Beth Israel Lahey Health and Wellforce -- are mandating that all employees be vaccinated against COVID-19.

yea, but ye may say that such resistance from recovery may be superior to that of vaccination, engendering both longer and more efficacious protection, but such protestations reveal only that one’s eyes lie upon the wrong prize for far more is at stake!

for though thee may be immune in body to the devil’s covidian snares, what of thine minds and souls oh non-gender-specifiable-ren?

for in the church of the branch covidian, vaccination is a communion, an acceptance of the sacrament, contrition and submission to the will of st anthony and a tithe to the holy orders of pfizeria and modernatia.

actual disease is sin and those contracting such pestilence are fallen and polluted. they must be washed clean before being suffered to re-enter the realms of the righteous.

resistance to future transgression is naught without contrition for past trespasses. the purchase of indulgences is required to mitigate purgatory.

so cease thine heretical harangues about "natural" immunity, for sin too is natural but no less an abomination for being so!

it is precisely this "state of nature" that the holy technocrats must seek to lift us above!

for mine is the power and the glory and the profits for prophets.

variants without end.

amen.
