Trump Evangelical Adviser Says You Dont Need Flu Shots When You Have Jesus
Inoculate yourself with the word of God, says Gloria Copeland.
A controversial minister linked to President Donald Trump said flu shots arent necessary when you have Jesus.
Inoculate yourself with the word of God, urged Gloria Copeland, who with her husband co-founded the Kenneth Copeland Ministries in Texas. Both serve on Trumps evangelical advisory board.While health officials continue to urge people to get flu shots during a season that has been marked by widespread illness, Copeland told followers that faith in Christ is all thats really needed.
Well, listen, partners, we dont have a flu season, Copeland said in a video clip posted online by Right Wing Watch. And dont receive it when somebody threatens you with, Everybodys getting the flu. Weve already had our shot: He bore our sicknesses and carried our diseases. Thats what we stand on.
She said the faithful who dont have the flu can ward off the infection by repeatedly saying, Ill never have the flu. Ill never have the flu.

Christ, you could spend your damn day intoning against all the avoidable dangers of modern life.
"I'll never be scalded by this hot coffee. I'll never be scalded by this hot coffee."
In fact, why follow the law at all? Any law--including the law of gravity?
"I'll never fall off this tightrope"--we'll *all* be circus stars!
