if this is real..... :facepalm:

I read an article way back (like a week ago probably) about it being transferred through droplets and also fecal matter.

I hope his insurance denies coverage and that the hospital kicks him to the curb. Idiot.

For the people who think once warm weather is here it will all go away because, you know, the stable genius in the White House said so. 

It hasn’t been cold in Louisiana.

That is a BS call by the NCAA.

 

[Jason Sitoke]

We should’ve done that to the spring break crowds.

They would have been fired upon in Florida.

It hasn't been cold at all. I'm an hour away and it's been hot actually the past week or so

Trump’s latest message about the US being “open” for Easter is another pandering to his “Christian-constituents”. He wants to be able to say “I wanted you all to get together, but the doctors and the local governments wouldn’t allow it”.

Hopefully individual church leaders are smart enough to not have in-person services for the foreseeable future. There are other ways to worship during Lent/Easter.

It's like Trump wants people to get sick, and not have the tools they need to be treated.

Why?  That will further crash the economy.

I'm not really religious anymore, and our current situation kind of solidifies it for me.

But one of my favorite college pastors had a FB a message something like the following:   "Now that churches are closed, it's time to show we were never about the building, but the people."

My hope is that he is right.  If so, then my question would be, once this is over, why are you going back?  Why do you need to waste money on these huge auditoriums when the money could just as easily be spent on service?

business as usual by easter basically means trump has given up  on the elderly for lent.

Well, I'm not Christian either, but having a community with a community center is a heck of a lot easier way to maintain cohesiveness than just randomly getting together at various places. 

Churches don't need to be palaces, and there's a conversation to be had about ostentatious displays of wealth in churches, but a decent, well-maintained and clean facility to hold worship, classroom instruction and social events (like weddings or funerals or potlucks) isn't unreasonable.

Hey, he's in his 70's!  That is a true Lenten sacrifice!
