Masks

[MU82]

The board of our county, the largest in NC, voted to eliminate the mask mandate exemption for houses of worship -- meaning people who attend indoor church services must comply with the same order covering everybody else. The change takes effect Sept. 22.

Some churches are responding appropriately, with a few even saying they would urge their congregations to wear masks starting this weekend, before the order even takes effect.

"Of course we will comply," said Lal Rodawla, assistant pastor at Providence Presbyterian Church in Charlotte. "This is a health crisis. We want to keep our congregation safe. This isn't an unreasonable request."

"We have been working hard to get our congregation vaccinated," said Judy Schindler, senior rabbi at Temple Beth El in Charlotte. "And we recognize this as another important step to protect our people. God helps those who help themselves."

Predictably, the loudest reactions have come from those who are "outraged" by the order.

"It's not the job of government to play God!" said David Bass, executive pastor at Carmel Baptist Church in Charlotte.

Penny Maxwell, a senior pastor at Freedom House Church, told her congregation in an Instagram post that "Mecklenburg County is messing with the wrong people," and that, "Our lawyers are ready to go."

Perfect!

How on earth does mandating masks interfere with the right to worship?
How is that even remotely playing God?

I don't know enough about the make-up of the churches, and it wasn't as if there was a survey or anything.

I will take a wild stab that the Temple Beth El, whose rabbi said they will comply, has a mostly white congregation!

Does Covid get an "I closed wolski's" sticker for taking her down?

She used to hang banners over the Kennedy about Covid. I heard on the radio that Lin Wood is now stating that the hospital killed her because of its refusal to give her Ivermectin.

Yeah, Wood put out videos of himself calling a threatening the hospital for not administering Ivermectin. Just amazing stuff.

Covid kills Pastor Bob Enyart who sued Colorado over mask mandates & capacity limits

On his old TV show, Bob Enyart Live, the host would "gleefully read obituaries of AIDS sufferers while cranking 'Another One Bites the Dust' by Queen," Westword reported.

WWJD indeed.

Let's find comfort from the holy scriptures. Turn to Galatians 6:7.

This just gave me an idea for a TV similar show with a different virus.

Like Dexter, except COVID takes the form of a tall dark and handsome man (like the dude from Lucifer) who stabs anti-vaxxers and Karens in the neck with a syringe.

Can we get a volunteer to organize a Scoop "Dance on your Grave" party to honor this man?

Wow. I did not know about that show.
I don't think I can even muster thoughts, much less prayers.

A-holes.

Yeah, I'm not big on celebrating the death of people. It's immoral, and also bad karma. And yet, it's hard to feel too sorry for a guy like that. He was a truly reprehensible human being.

[Warriors4ever]

Not celebrating. Just don't care.
