Cooper Bans Church Services

Democrat hedonists do not like God. They build walls of separation between God and men. They want churches closed. Nobody has to be a genius to see that.

Many Republican governors closed churches as well. What's up with that?

We've seen republican state leaders showing much more compassion towards churches than democrat officials have shown. Democrat officials have gone so far as to suggest locking up church members who attend church against their orders. Republicans are not known for going that far and many republicans have not ordered churches to close at all. I don't know of any democrat who has fought to keep churches open. Democrats, remember, are the party of the wall of separation between God and men in society and democrats voted 43 times in 2012 at Charlotte to kick God out of their party.

But several governors have overridden local leaders and exempted churches from their lists of nonessential businesses that must close. Texas and Florida’s governors have allowed churches to continue holding services.

More marke deluded ranting.

Fact; Churches that continue to operate without safety precautions put their parishioners and their communities at greater risk of spreading the coronavirus.

She is not blaming DeBlasio for the death of her husband. She is blaming him for waiting a day to pick his body up. NY has massive deaths. He was not old. Thiis has nothing to do with the fact that republicans want granny to die to save the economy

I thought the OP was about irrational fears about the coronavirus and the overextended foolish shutdown of the economy based upon irrational fears and bad attempted solutions to the problem.

The hair-on-fire leftist foolishness driven by misunderstandings about what is good for victims of the virus and victims of the collapsing economy is driving the fearful to fight against Americans attempting to restore the health of the US for the benefit of the sick and the healthy alike.

Democrats drove the unusually high death toll from the coronavirus by bad judgment and then democrats blamed Trump. That is so stupidly dishonest of democrats who try to turn every disaster into a boost for democratsw in politics even as they themselves make the disaster worse. Don't vote for Biden this Nov. Whoever will be doing his handling and thinking then will no doubt be just as incompetent as de Blasio has been in the coronavirus epidemic he has turned into a disaster.

Mass gatherings of republicans did not cause the mass deaths of old people in rest homes under democraqt supervision.

And now he is calling for states to open back up. Those states which have opened back up are doing quite well while others continue to suffer. Several blue states have called on Trump for bailout relief since they have now run out of money due to the disaster. Red states not so much.

"rest" homes are run by corporations, the CEO's of which are certainly not democrats. Get a new talking point.

A mayor is not responsible for national policies. A mayor is not responsible for relaying the seriousness of a pandemic. A pandemic affects all Americans, not just the people in one city. Democrats are not the ones saying that we need to let grandma and grandpa die for the sake of the economy. Stop trying to change the narrative to support your stupid president

I suspect all the church services in the world will not save a liar's soul. I'd pay good money to watch some of these so-called Christians arrive at the pearly gates only to be turned away with a swift kick in the butt.

This ^^ makes no sense whatsoever.

“ A church in Houston has canceled mass indefinitely after one of its priests died and five others subsequently tested positive for the coronavirus.

The Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston confirmed the death of Father Donnell Kirchner, a 79-year-old priest who worked at Holy Ghost Catholic Church, according to a statement issued Monday by the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston.

“It's unknown what specifically caused the priest's May 13 death, the Archdiocese said, and "it is not clear" if Kirchner had been tested for Covid-19. But within the following week, five others he lived with tested positive for the virus.”

“At Houston's Holy Cross Chapel, two of the priests who later tested positive had "been active in celebrating public Masses at Holy Ghost since May 2nd," when the church reopened, Zuniga said.”

“Among 92 attendees at a rural Arkansas church during March 6–11, 35 (38%) developed laboratory-confirmed COVID-19, and three persons died. Highest attack rates were in persons aged 19–64 years (59%) and ≥65 years (50%). An additional 26 cases linked to the church occurred in the community, including one death.”

“A Virginia pastor who defied warnings about the danger of religious gatherings during the pandemic and vowed to keep preaching “unless I’m in jail or the hospital” died over the weekend after contracting Covid-19, his church said.”

“Mother Marcietia Glenn, 65, the bishop’s wife, also tested positive for the virus, Mar-Gerie Crawley, their daughter, said in an April 4 post on the church’s Facebook page. Ms. Crawley said at the time that her father was on a ventilator at the hospital.”
Pastor Who Defied Social Distancing Dies After Contracting Covid-19, Church Says - The New York Times

“A parishioner who regularly attended services at a Louisiana mega-church that has made national headlines for defying social-distancing orders has died from coronavirus complications—but the church’s pastor claims it’s all a lie.”

Spell “ previously claimed that his church was not at risk of being infected because coronavirus was “politically motivated.” Ahead of his Easter service, he told Reuters: “Satan and a virus will not stop us... God will shield us from all harm and sickness. We are not afraid.”

The stupid shall be punished.

There are lots of people moving freely in North Carolina where I live. We are not having serious health problems. If fact there is a doctor and two nurses at our local hospital who have said the hospital has become extremely slow there due to the coronavirus and the obvious lack of infections from the virus is clearly noticeable.

That's right. He closed down flights from China early on while democrats went on TV telling people to get out an mingle because there was nothing to fear. There is no excuse for anyone claiming Trump caused the deaths, unless their excuse is stupidity or ignorance.

So, those who blamed Trump for the deaths in the rest homes were wrong because Trump did not own the rest homes? And the reason democrats should not be blamed for the deaths is supposedly because they did not own the homes either?

Trump is not changing the narrative. He said we need to take precautionary measures and shut down incoming flights from China, while democrats mocked him and went on TV in response to encourage people to get out into the crowded markets and mingle.

Now Trump is urging democrats to listen to the Americans and open the country back up for business, while democrats mock him for trying to satisfy the needs and desires of the majority of Americans.
