Don't care what religion and all-powerful beings they have.

They can't trump (sic) science. And, in case any of them read this (or read at all), the COVID-19 virus and epidemic are just plain science at work. Chemistry and biology.

Study up you poor people.

from sowing the lies.

And it's not just his congregants who're going to get sick now. It's the grocery clerk in his neighborhood. It's the family members and neighbors and coworkers of his congregants. It's the nurses and doctors who tended to him as he lay dying.

The people denying the reality of the virus are not tragic figures undone by their own hubris. They're suicide bombers for ignorance. They're kamikaze pilots attacking America in the causes of capitalism or anti-science.

Very well put.

I call them belligerently ignorant.

One creepy dude right there. [link:|

But the virus didn’t get the memo

suffer until it attached itself to this denier of reality.

And they still won't get it. If Trump states that two plus two equals five, they will assume their calculators were defective, and deliberately misprogrammed by "liberals" if they say something different.

Just watch.

Republicans have been blaming Hillary's emails for everything else since the assassination of Julius Cæsar.

These religious screwballs are suicide bombers or kamikazes. They didn't just undo themselves with their own hubris; they take out a lot of innocent Americans with them.

This virus does not discriminate at all. Kathy griffin is very ill. I hope the president never finds out.

...with a sore throat, stuffy nose, occasional coughing, and a very slight fever.

We've been staying in for the last two weeks, but she had to go to a doctor's appt last week, so who knows if she picked something up at the doctor's office?

If she gets better and I remain ok for the next two weeks, I suppose that means it wasn't C-19.

Good instructions can be found online. Hope she recovers ok, stay well.

with symptoms that mimicked COVID 19. She is now home recovering.

gave you and be safe, etc., don't be an idiot.'

Unfortunately for his family, the sad part of the story is just beginning, that he has endangered his family (if any), with his idiotic (and deadly) belief.

I think that was a stupid thing to think and say.

I pray no one dies as a direct result of his idiocy.

I am in a constant state of incredulity at how many flat-out dumbasses inhabit the US.

was share a meme, and be skeptical, that's not nearly as bad as actively encouraging people to defy lockdown orders to fill a church.

That was a terrible idea and it caused New York's cases to rise by like 40 in one day. And now look at NYC. That was a terrible idea and why this is a terrible idea.

and not that he had brought this on himself.

Gorging on power - religious or political - can have similar effects and results as booze.......

I'd say it's fitting Darwinian justice, except who knows how many innocent people he infected on his way to infamy?

or he couldn't find a lamb because of hoarders.

Stupidity kills!

Funny how those closest to the Lard often miss this important aspect of the power of prayer.

However, if you get all of your news and information from the scribes and the pharisees you'll end up voting for Barabbas every time. Brainwashing is effective.

Nobody should be dying.

I wonder how many kids will be orphaned because their parents followed his advice.

This poor man simply parroted his dear leader.

Reach out to every maga you know! We are all in this together. Explain the situation calmly. If necessary, use single syllable words.

Our president's inability to live in reality has already killed one of his supporters and looks likely to kill more before this is over. It won't discriminate. It will infect anyone it can.

Get the word out anyway you can.

I am very concerned about what happens in our rural communities with their penchant to believe in this lying president, their elderly demographics and their hospitals already financially struggling.

We cannot beat this virus back before we beat it everywhere. The alternative is staying put and waiting for a vaccine and that is not happening any time soon.

It is tragic. I'm horrified that people are laughing here.

You're right, his recklessness didn't just kill himself. He's killing or endangering all of his community

Thoughts and prayers

OK, visiting New Orleans during a pandemic IS asking for it.
Forrest Gump maybe said it best?

Then took a cruise out there on the 29th. I wasn’t thinking of the Corona virus. My decision was less due to divine inspiration than because I was trying to get a bargain fare.

It’s now the 26th, I still seem to be healthy, but I’m saying but for the grace of God, there go I.

But stay back!

The current incubation time seems to be about 2 weeks max (The Cruise), but I intend to be careful.

These people are suicide bombers or kamikazes. They didn't just undo themselves with their hubris; they took out a lot of innocent Americans with them.

He didn't get himself enough

...somewhere along the way.

My 80 year old mother practically cheered when I read it to her.

A little light amidst all the bad news.

I'm sure that we're all going to go to Hell now.

I used to have compassion for people like him, but I’m all out now.

there's a fungus amongst us!

And it took you with it, Landon. Sadly, it will take a whole bunch more people who took this a lot more seriously, probably including a few that you passed Corvid-19 on to. So, thanks for that.

Never mind. Used em all up on dead kids from guns.

to take the place of soap and water.

Resurrected, getting a jump on Easter, showing up Jesus.

RESIST

The stories.....every evilgelical pastor has an ass full of made up anecdotes for every occasion. Lying for "insert deity" is as old as religion itself.

auarium cleaner. There is enough stupidity to go around. Rest in peace ... Dumbass.

Thou shall not tempt the lord. In other words don't do something stupid and expect/ demand that God cover for you. You were given a brain and free will. Use them wisely
Sorry this guy died but I really hope his foolish choices don't kill others.

Maybe he was thinking of the wrong kind of light? I think God was trying to point to UV light, but they just don't get it.

Of course, they also overlooked the magical blood on the doors, but it's too late for technicalities.

Said “Pray as if everything depends on God and work as everything depends on you.”

... the coronavirus might convince some people to trust in science who hadn't before.

They’ll just say the guy was the “wrong” kind of Christian, or that he had some kind of sin that no one but God knew about.

sorry if that is morbid, but if the media humiliates this guy and points out what an idiot he was, that might save the lives of some people who decide to stay home.

But I don't think I would wish this on one of them.

HOWEVER. . . I WILL say that I would prefer one of THEM die than somebody who actually made an effort to be careful. Just saying.

Trump is telling all his "Christian" followers to go and crowd into churches across the land on Easter Sunday..........WHAT?????????????

To all church goers who follow Trumps recommendation, I suggest you recite, in unison, the following Psalm first thing:

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil................

The statistics on the virus, by the time Easter comes, should be enough to shock even them.......then again, you never know.....

WH Easter Egg Hunt will be held this year? Will the tRumps be attending church at Easter? OT but I read that John Thune (big tRump fan) flew home on a private jet, wearing a mask after being exposed to the virus. Your tax dollars at work. He was among those gop representatives who spent last 4th of July in Moscow.

He's not magic. He does not do parlor tricks.

Your statement reminds me of the old story about the guy on his roof in a flood telling his rescuers "God will take care of me" and when he died, God tells him "I sent you a boat, I sent you a helicopter, etc'
I've had a couple friends talk about "I'll just pray", and i said "Of course. but if you get sick, you go to the hospital and pray THERE"

Yes, he was wrong. Yes, he was ignorant. Ignorant isn't the same as evil. And a few weeks ago, I knew plenty of Democrats who didn't take it seriously enough. Not that it should matter.

May he RIP.

Grave dancing is a terrible look for du.

And it got even worse down thread. 😥

In fact he puts everyone in unnecessary danger and encourages others to do the same. How many died because of him or people who listened to him? My tolerance for ignorant, stupid Trumpers has been reduced to zero. I am sorry if that sounds callous, but it is honestly how I feel.

But He answered and said to them, “An evil and adulterous generation craves for a sign; and yet no sign will be given to it

I don’t know the will of God and I would not read it as a sign. I will pray for the man and his family.

Use your God given mind to love your neighbor and your self. I don’ think it is God’s will that anyone endanger their neighbor or self.

9 The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down from here. 10 For it is written: “ ‘He will command his angels concerning you to guard you carefully; 11 they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’ ” 12 Jesus answered, “It is said: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”

Luke 4: 9-12

Evidently his wife is very ill as well. His Facebook page is, for better or worse, taking a beating. He possibly infected a whole lot of people.

Where are the Super Christians/evangelicals to claim it was God's judgement?

Trump-endorsed news outlet says it's God's "judgment" that a gay activist died from coronavirus

Shhhhhhhhh. It's their own argument.

Let Nancy Pelosi survive
