Four pro-life students are fighting in court against their Catholic university, saying its COVID-19 vaccine mandate violates their religious and moral beliefs.
The Omaha World-Herald reports the students object to the mandate because of the connections between the vaccines and aborted babies. They filed a lawsuit against Creighton University in Nebraska after they said their school refused to consider religious exemptions to the vaccine.
Creighton University, which says it is “committed to Jesuit, Catholic values and traditions,” required all of its students to provide proof of vaccination by Sept. 7 in order to attend classes and other events on campus, according to the report.
“A Catholic university should never be placing its students in such a position where they may be required to violate the teachings of the Church,” said attorney Robert Sullivan, who is representing the students, in a statement.
One of the students, Lauren Ramaekers, is the president of the Students for Life club at Creighton. She said she cannot in good conscience take the vaccine “because of the use of abortion-derived fetal cells in the research and development of the vaccines.”
“…the use of fetal tissue, fetal cells, or any ‘product’ of abortion in the development and/or testing of a vaccine or any other medical treatment, is abhorrent to me,” she said in the lawsuit. “This is a sincerely held religious belief, which impacts my moral and ethical views of the world.”

Vaccine mandates are being challenged in court across the country, some by pro-life individuals who object to a vaccine that has been developed and/or tested with cell lines created from aborted babies.
Earlier this month, four student athletes at Western Michigan University filed a similar lawsuit challenging their school’s vaccine mandate for athletes.Opinions about the ethics of the new COVID-19 vaccines vary even among many Christians and pro-life advocates. The Vatican recently issued a statement declaring that it is morally acceptable for Catholics to take vaccines even if they use cell lines created from aborted babies because of the vaccines’ life-saving impact.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
