The Devil has always quoted scripture of course, with great ingenuity.
That they rushed to get injected, persecuted members of their congregations who declined to be masked or vaccinated, and endorsed general societal discrimination, exposed their religious faith for what it always was: a worthless pretence.
What faith in the Divine did they show, what Christian brotherhood and true compassion? Thankfully, no priest or theologian can have anyone burnt at the stake these days, but they can still wreck lives through treachery. If only they had stood firm!
The fearful ones were clinging to the world like any atheist materialist.
