Yes, I'm quite familiar with Christian mythology, and American historical mythology, too.
Masks, lockdowns and vaccines are motivated by interest in the the general welfare. Opposition is motivated by selfish interests, in opposition to the general welfare.
I'm not talking about the history of the Democrats and Republicans. The article is deliberately deceptive in that it fails to point out that the social positions of the two parties ave switched. That's why I usually speak of Left vs Right rather than Democrats vs Republicans.
Whereas you've been assiduously combing through the right-wing conspiracy sites, apparently.
The mainstream media are hardly liberal, and nor are the Democrats; maybe the Greens or the Socialists are. Today's "radical, left-wing Democrats" are far to the right of the Republicans of my childhood.
I’m seeing how you’ve bought into the “safety and concern” because that’s all a smoke screen the left uses to control and deceive people. Mandatory masks and lockdowns were used to threaten people into submission. This was a left idea. Give people the information and let them do what’s best for themselves, voluntary. But the left threatened and fined people. This is common for the left if you disagree. When a woman is pregnant with child God looks at that as a human being another difference between left vs right, the left takes opportunity to take advantage of women calling it “right to choose” actually to murder your child. Left is anti God, immoral and evil. Really, you’re pushing gender change in schools without telling parents? Sickening
Absolutely correct.
FACT: Individuals who get the COVID-19 vaccination still need to practice infection prevention precautions. Keep your mask on, and continue staying at least 6 feet from people outside your household, until further notice. Vaccines do not stop the coronavirus from entering your body; they only prevent you from developing moderate to severe COVID-19. It’s not yet clear if people vaccinated for COVID-19 can still carry and transmit the virus, even when they themselves don’t get sick.The vaccines aren't effective?
It's a shame that some people use their "religion" as a set of blinders to reality. If my denomination did that, I'd be outta there in a heartbeat, which I actually did do some 50 years ago when I left my fundamentalist Protestant church.
How about all the other mandatory childhood vaccinations? I haven't heard many objections to those.
We do object to mandatory vaccinations for children as well, should be voluntary.
That’s the big problem with all that, it’s easier to say one size fits all when that’s rarely the case. Inform people and let them make their own choice as far as the welfare of their children.
Could we maintain a healthy, prosperous society, at our current population level, if all mandatory prophylaxis were abolished?
That's fine for people living in isolation, but -- perhaps unfortunately -- that's no longer an option. Like it or not we live in a society, and must modify our behavior to avoid harming others or disrupting other's lives; ergo: law, morality and propriety.
What’s going on now and last year... Harmful
We can agree on that and that’s what the government has exploited with the masks and shutdowns. That’s what I’m saying.
What specific goings-on are you referring to? The Covid jabs? Thus far they're voluntary, are they not?
I'm not seeing it. Where's the exploitation? Can't you see the utility of these measures?
Your examples and comments don’t deserve a serious answer:
"Perfect freedom" leads to anarchy, which always ends up being even more restrictive, as you well know.
Only because anarchist movement tend to be swiftly crushed by the forces of statism.
