The FDA announced the removal of the Emergency Use Authorization of the COVID vaccine. The FDA and Pfizer knew of serious safety signals before the Emergency Use Authorization.

Pfizer’s own early safety review, the “5.3.6 Cumulative Analysis of Post-Authorization Adverse Event Reports of BNT162b2” dated February 2021, catalogued more than 42,000 adverse event reports with nearly 160,000 individual events in just the first three months.

Pfizer concluded that none of these “were consequential enough” to hold back approval. The FDA went along with it.  Now, with independent science repeatedly confirming risks of myocarditis, pericarditis, and waning effectiveness, there is action.

The slogan “safe and effective” became the government’s mantra, repeated endlessly while concerns were dismissed as fringe. Yet large-scale studies now show otherwise.

The Lancet published evidence of elevated myocarditis risk in young men. Nature Communications confirmed that even the dosing interval influenced heart inflammation outcomes.

Multiple NEJM and JAMA reports documented that protection against infection dropped below 20% after just six months.

This is not a profile of safety or effectiveness; it is a failed medical product. To continue marketing it under false pretenses while evidence piles up is a dereliction of duty by both regulators and pharmaceutical executives who cashed in at the expense of public health.

Worse yet, Pfizer and federal agencies had the data in hand. Their confidential February 2021 report detailed tens of thousands of adverse events across multiple organ systems. Yet they waved it away as inconsequential.

Independent researchers, re-analyzing the same trial data, later found a 3.7-fold increase in cardiovascular deaths among the vaccinated compared to placebo. Other peer-reviewed papers have confirmed pregnancy complications, menstrual irregularities, and disproportionate cardiac risks in young males.

These are not side effects “rare enough to ignore.” They are red-flag signals that should have stopped the rollout in its tracks. Instead, Americans became unwitting subjects in a massive, uncontrolled experiment. Even those who earnestly researched before getting the shot were acting off of severely flawed information.

With former skeptics now leading efforts to phase out the vaccine, the writing is on the wall. But why just a partial ban? Every additional day this is allowed means more people exposed to risks that government officials and corporate leaders knew about from the start.

The Pfizer website to this day downplays the side effects of its COVID shot and says that health concerns are rare.

Paul’s warning in Galatians 6:7 comes to mind: “Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap.”

We have reaped disastrous results from the sowing of deceptive seeds. It’s time to reap honesty, not deception; transparency, not concealment.

While the FDA move is in the right direction, the COVID vaccine should be banned sooner rather than later. Anything less just prolongs the, say it with me…Stupidocrisy.

Let’s introduce a new phrase: self-righteous entitlement. This is when people believe they’re owed rights that simply don’t exist, and worse, they wrap their demand in a cloak of moral superiority. It shows up in everyday life.

A parent insists their child deserves playing time on a sports team even if they aren’t good enough, because the parent volunteers or simply “deserves” it. That’s not fairness, but rather favoritism justified by entitlement. The underlying message is that rules and standards are fine for everyone else, but not for an individual convinced his/her felt-righteousness demands an exception. Left unchecked, this mindset corrodes trust, breaks down order, and undermines the very foundation of accountability.

We see this spirit in people who believe their “rights” place them above rules. It might be individuals ignoring policies at work because they think rules don’t apply to them, or politicians who assume their personal cause gives them immunity. The danger multiplies when leaders in positions of power justify nearly anything by claiming moral authority.

John Locke, one of the key thinkers behind the concept of civil society, taught that people agree to give up certain liberties in order to protect themselves and others from the lawless. Government’s role is to preserve life and liberty by restraining chaos and lawlessness. When leaders act as though their cause justifies stepping outside the law, they flip Locke’s principle on its head and invite disorder. People see it as justification of violence and bullying if they don’t get what they want.

There are many examples, like what we are seeing in places like Washington, DC, where officials and activists fight against law and order under the banner of “rights.” Defund-the-police efforts, releasing murderers and other violent offenders, and resistance to restoring accountability are all justified by claims of moral high ground.

Globally, we see it in the defense of terrorist groups like Hamas, which cloak murderous acts under the false flag of “Palestinian rights.” Statehood never granted, laws of war ignored, civilians targeted, even promotion of genocide against an entire people—yet some Western leaders and activists still insist these acts are justified. That is self-righteous entitlement at its deadliest: demanding rights that do not exist while stripping away the rights of others to live in peace and security.

Proverbs 12:15 reminds us, “The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but he who heeds counsel is wise.” 

Self-righteous entitlement is folly disguised as wisdom. It convinces people they’re morally justified when they’re actually tearing down order and trampling the rights of others. When individuals, parents, politicians, or entire movements believe their imagined rights are higher than the rules, chaos follows.

The true test of character isn’t demanding exceptions; it’s submitting to standards for the greater good, doing what is right in the eyes of God.

Our nation doesn’t need more people grasping for phantom rights. We need leaders and citizens willing to lay aside entitlement for the sake of love, truth, honor, and justice. That is the path of wisdom, and the only path that preserves freedom rather than destroying it.
