Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 6

[ecosophia]

The semi-open posts  I've hosted here on the Covid-19 narrative, the inadequately tested experimental drugs for it, and the whole cascading mess surrounding them have continued to field a gargantuan (and increasing) number of comments, so I'm opening another space for discussion. The rules are the same as before: 

1. If you plan on parroting the party line of the medical industry and its paid shills, please go away. This is a place for people to talk openly, honestly, and freely about their concerns that the party line in question is dangerously flawed and that actions being pushed by the medical industry et al. are causing injury and death. It is not a place for you to dismiss those concerns. Anyone who wants to hear the official story and the arguments in favor of it can find those on hundreds of thousands of websites.

2. If you plan on insisting that the current situation is the result of a deliberate plot by some villainous group of people or other, please go away. There are tens of thousands of websites currently rehashing various conspiracy theories about the Covid-19 outbreak and the vaccines. This is not one of them. What we're exploring is the likelihood that what's going on is the product of the same arrogance, incompetence, and corruption that the medical industry and its tame politicians have displayed so abundantly in recent decades. That possibility deserves a space of its own for discussion, and that's what we're doing here. 

3. If you don't believe in treating people with common courtesy, please go away. I have, and enforce, a strict courtesy policy on my blogs and online forums, and this is no exception. The sort of schoolyard bullying that takes place on so many other internet forums will get you deleted and banned here. No, I don't care if you disagree with that: my journal, my rules. 

With that said, the floor is open for discussion.

And that would make sense why the red states are fighting hard. Because Christianity/Christian culture in flyover country. They’d be less inclined to call on the demons in the first place, more likely to use the traditional forms we’re talking about I.e. prayer and hymns/hymnals, and thus more protected.

This is not a value judgement, traditional polytheistic religions make more sense to me personally.

However being one of the formerly deep blue angry atheists, many people have a chip on their shoulder about Christianity, which is fine but turning to other Gods is just a much better idea than to demons.

It’s the twin unhelpful binaries of Christianity or Scientism. That then becomes God or devils. “The enemy if my enemy is my friend.” It’s the difference between atheist and anti-theist.
