The coronavirus continues to ravage the United States. The death toll in the United States caused by the coronavirus has now exceeded 100,000. One survey says about one in eight Americans knows someone who died. The people of the United States are living within an ongoing catastrophe.
However there is one thing we do not need to be afraid of. Some may be afraid that this coronavirus is some sort of sign that the COGs' dire predictions will soon occur. This current crisis is no such thing.
Herbert Armstrong and his imitators are false prophets who do not know what will happen in the future. Every now and then Armstrongite demogogues would make their followers scared of disease epidemics but no one among the Armstrongites predicted this coronavirus catastrophe. Some of them even chose to downplay this epidemic.
While many are suffering and need help because of the coronavirus there is no need to be afraid of the Armstrongites' dire predictions. They are but false prophets.

With 330 million Americans alive, 100,000 die so far. Low death rate.
ReplyDelete"One survey says about one in eight Americans knows someone who die"
Not possible. Do the math.
100,000 people dead is horrendous. Yes, thank God it's not worse! Remember too, this is not the final death toll - we don't know what that will be. Supply lines disrupted. Unemployment at Depression levels. Businesses ruined. International relations strained. Why anyone would continue to minimize the impact of this pandemic is beyond me - Can't we all just agree that this thing is bad?

ReplyDelete'm worried not about the virus, but the plague of cancer in this country. Why is it rising? We have over 26,000 deaths a DAY globally. You should get your priorities right my friend.
ReplyDeleteLook, by the standards of 120 years ago. Anyone over 40 has had their reproductve time here on earth.
ReplyDeleteSo how do we get to prioritize all this. How do ephemeral mayflies prioritize any genetic inconveniences?
They do not reproduce.
They do not worry about saving the healthcare system or need make "horrific choices", just live, grow, reproduce and not get eaten by the next bird.

You should get your priorities right my friend.
ReplyDeleteAgree. I feel the majority has learned nothing from this continuing experience. As some sages point out, the virus has taken the headlines, but the major problems are still there and are have not been addressed.
Yeah hoss.
ReplyDeleteJust as we look on previous generations as dirth and backward for having toilets in the living room, burrying ancestors under the lintel and delivering babies without washing hands first,....the people of the 21st century will look at our 20th century generation with horror and disgust as the generation that paid at 7 eleven with cash money that was given by hand abd without a plastic sheet between the client and workers.
Nck
Priorities?
ReplyDeletePerhaps we could sent an all black crew to Mars with Elons chariots. Perhaps the Chinese could sponsor that as W(uhan)iedergutmachung.

ReplyDeleteI'm concerned about both. I'm also concerned about the economy, the behavior of the demagogue who currently inhabits the White House, and the destruction of our natural environment. I care about the safety and welfare of my children and grandchildren and am disturbed by racial, religious and political tensions here and around the world. We can and should be concerned about many things (I don't like the word "worried"). As a disciple of Jesus Christ, however, I am not without hope.

I am witnessing troops converging this evening on the Presedential Palace in the capital of a former British Colony currently beset by riots. The latest unrest is in response to continued extra-judicial killings of ethnic minorities by security services.
Curious as to where you ask...........?

Wow
ReplyDeleteTrump seems to have invoked the Obama administration amended 1807 insurrection act.
If the Army moved into the States, constitutional democracy in the USA has ended through Obama and Trump.
