No. I think each person has a right to not take it if they wish. We shouldn’t force, or be forced, to do anything we don’t want to do.
Find another church.So if your church voted to require the shot - what would you do?
I would do what I always do and go with the majority. I’m not a fan of being forced to do anything neither should anyone else. But I’m just a sheep in the church.So if your church voted to require the shot - what would you do?
I would vote no. I would leave if it came to that.If a motion was made to require proof of vaccination for the C-virus in order to attend your church service
How would you vote:
I had the shot but wish I didn't and don't blame anyone who just says no!

Why is that?
I ride bicycles, between 100-150 miles a week, in 2020, 6200+ miles a lot of that on mountain roads. My bikes and smart trainer have power meters and I use a heart rate monitor. I may not know much about a lot of things in life but I do know what my normal heart rate for a given amount of power/weight effort and since getting the second shot the first week on Feb. (I'm a volly firefighter so I was first in line), since then my heart rate has gone up 10 bpm and my legs are complaining when they shouldn't be. When you are at a sustained (2-3 hours) HR of 165-170 bpm, 10 bpm is a lot. This summer I have seen my HR exceed 190 bpm which is an uncomfortable situation for this 63 year old.
Over the last 4 weeks I have been doing my best to power through this because I have a 65 mile charity ride end of the month (The Ben to the Shore Bicycle Tour - Ben Franklin Bridge in Philly to the Showboat in Atlantic City NJ). I'm a member of a large team (The Jim Thorpers). Normally I would expect to do this in less than 3.5 hours which is still my goal considering, but, I really need to get on it.
If a motion was made to require proof of vaccination for the C-virus in order to attend your church service how would you vote?

That’s terrifying. Have you considered getting your heart checked. I know younger folks can have heart problems as a side effect. Maybe your excellent condition has done the same.I ride bicycles, between 100-150 miles a week, in 2020, 6200+ miles a lot of that on mountain roads.
