She says she has seen videos about people who say they felt they lost their connection to God after getting vaxxed

There is some interesting speculation that humanity has been genetically disposed to belief in God...

Dean Hamer, PhD, a behavioral geneticist who has worked at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and the NIH, took the neurotheologians' proposal that religious belief has a neural substrate another step and asked: Is God, in effect, embedded in our genes and, if so, which genes? If this were the case, it would mean that people are not only wired to believe in God but genetically programmed to do so as well.

Experimental gene therapy - may cause more changes than expected.

Very interesting post.

1) It feels like there is no softness left in the hearts of the boosted.

2) I have always felt we are genetically coded to seek and enjoy God. How loving of Him to encode that need in us! The facts that studies have shown Confession is psychologically healthy, having faith is physically and emotionally beneficial, and that wine has health benefits, have always made me think we are coded to seek and recognize God on a subconscious/ cellular level.

Personal Slide:
He wants us to find Him! He wants us to feel good when we take the steps toward Him! In the Mass, we confess our sins, we recognize and acknowledge our faith in Him, and we have a sip of wine. All is designed to help our minds, bodies, and spirits reach toward Our Lord! He even foreshadowed it all in the Old Testament so we would recognize the signs and make the leap of faith. Heaven and Earth are full of His glory.
