Again, you confuse being ruled by man (communism an earthly institution) and being ruled by God - in Heaven! God's rule is not communistic, it is Theocratic, all of our needs are provided by him - not man!Quote:

So your ideal state is where the ruler provides all our needs? You want God to control most every aspect of human activity. You are for God's takeover of industry? Especially healthcare? You want redistribution of wealth within heaven? You want all basic needs met?Quote:

There's no substitute for a good old fashioned chat with God. Not even the Bible can touch that. Though it can surely try. So read Leviticus 20:17 and then understand wholly the relation of Abraham and Sarah. Specifically what happens on Genisis 17:16. Marinate on that and think about it. (It's not pointing out a contradiction. It's something completely the opposite.)
Dan and Extend....will you guys please take your discussion to private message?
I'm sure that you know this but their population on average is 15? Years older than ours.Quote:

Look, I'm not taking sides, but if that is the case, then don't take bait; and that can apply to both of you. Y'all's discussion isn't remotely germane to the thread.Quote:

I become more concerned about the impacts of this pandemic by the day, and it is not just sickness and death. When things began tanking, I believed (hoped, maybe) that the economy would rebound quickly, but now I no longer have such confidence. The banks are solvent, so that is not a huge concern, but other sectors, particularly for our region the oil and gas industry are very worrisome. If, in the next few months, oil does not rebound to at least $45.00 per bbl, the economies of Miss. Louisiana and Texas are going to go into a death spiral. Low double digit unemployment and the resulting wrecked state budgets could become a reality.
That's crazy. Do you know the average age there?Quote:

The reason I defended both Obama and Trump is ... when you're trading all the possible impacts due to either disease they're in untenable positions. There are no good options.
Now for what I'm trying to get straight. If I'm reading it right from a source or two ... We can shut the country down, have almost everyone teleworking, probably virtually destroy whole segments of our economy (hotels, airlines, cruises, travel, restaurants, some entertainment, etc.) and the folks that wanted to do all of that are up in arms now cause Trump (and Fauci) say that anyone traveling out of NY to other states should self quarantine for 14 days. Seriously???
Seems to be the same folks that trashed him for shutting travel from China down.
In the meantime, let's open up the political/religious debate on this thread to ... does anyone really think those industries mentioned above will be able to rebound very quickly immediately following the defeat of the virus?
I think those industries will definitely take a hit no matter what. Just a small example- I was going to stay in Starkville for SBW. Now that it has been cancelled I'm certainly not going to go just to go to Starkville essentially. So my hotel and whatever restaurants I would have eaten at lost my money because of COVID. So for this year they're definitely going to take a hit no matter what.Quote:

Good post. I travel a lot for business and now my schedule has been scrapped for who knows how long. I spend 90 or so nights a year in hotels, eating at restaurants near those hotels, spending on other things while I'm on the road and I'm just one person. Pretty much no one is traveling now so the travel, hospitality, restaurants and such business are gonna take a big hit. I'm pretty lucky right now because I work in medical equipment Industry and I actually should have an increase in business over the next few months(although who knows at this point).. Other folks are not gonna be so lucky. I pray for all affected by this because all of us are being affected in one way or another, no one is immune to this crisisQuote:

Not trying to belittle the situation at all, and I understand we need to "control it ". But that's only Bc of hospitals. This thing is going to run its course non matter what we do. There is not such thing as lock down. People have to eat and get Medicine etc. so you can't keep everyone home.... heck 1mil plus die in car crashes every year and that doesn't stop traffic....but the side effects of this, suicide, depression, etc will equal the death toll in the US when this is all said and done it's sad. There is a way to slow it, but no way to stop it.
Dude..... you are nothing but pessimism when it comes to this shit. I get it..... we're ****ed. But at least give some optimism. Like..... Italy may have peaked and is showing upside. Or..... a lot of states in the US locked down early and it may have helped the spread of the virus. All you keep talking about is how many people have died. **** you man. I hear enough of that shit on the news.Quote:

Right now is the time people should put their "gut feelings" and their "common sense" on the back burner and listen to the people in the field of study.
Lockdowns won't be perfect, some will still be assholes, but locking as much down as possible might keep.this from going from bad to catastrophic.
This! 100% agree.Quote:

It's hard to tell because MSDH doesn't give info on the # tests coming in from private labs, but their official numbers were actually quite lower yesterday.Quote:

It's hard to make sense of the test #s. I wish they'd start counting negatives from outside sources.
