if even one non christian place of worship is open, ignoring this blatant discrimination is in order.

Lib tyrants see this as their only chance to cull us.

They want war. Give it to them by defying them!

But the Walmart shopping center was so full that I had to park 100 yards away and walk in the rain.

Romans 13 gets misinterpreted so many times.

Acts 5:29 is much better to respond in this situation:

“But Peter and the other apostles answered and said: “We ought to obey God rather than men.”

Apparently no one’s red line has yet been crossed.

A coup against our President, two tiered justice, accusations of racism... Sons of bitches better not go too far!

Walmart is open, as it is an essential business. Churches are closed because God is optional. That is how liberals think, and because liberal states were the first to shut down, it became the template for every other state which wouldn’t rationally include such temples of worship.

It’s pretty simple, explain why a Walmart can remain open (which face it, aside from certain mega churches, holds far more people than will be in most any church) yet a church remain closed?

This is one of those no brainer questions that most any judge should be able to navigate without too much difficulty.

If only we had a national supreme law of the land guaranteeing us the freedom of religion and to not be deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law. I saw this in a dream once. In history class in public school I remember something about Ben Franklin saying “A republic, if you can keep it.” Well? Can we? I fear for our constitutional republic.

Apparently some are using Romans 13 to tell the flock if the government tells you to turn in your guns and you don’t.............you’re going to hell.

This is the intramural free-for-all within the church coming up soon, sadly.

And i’m supposed to be thrilled that they’re opening the parks on a limited basis??

What am I a ####ing dog that needs to be taken for a walk??

I want to go to Church or a restaurant or a bar for a beer or WHEREVER I WANT TO GO.

My moron governor just said almost 70 percent of new cases are from those staying at home.

So it’s obviously pretty pointless.

And de blasio closes 100 miles of streets because HE NEVER WANTS THEM OPENED AGAIN.

That left wing, married to a ###### lesbian who is in charge of The Coronavirus Racial Inequality Task Force. is insane.

I didn’t know viruses could be racist. Or white. Or male.

The overnight drives aren’t calming me anymore.

This is gonna get very bad soon.

de blasio has no brain. cuomo has half of one.

He better use it.

The “church” is it’s own worst enemy.

They don’t get to decide who goes to hell and who doesn’t. The King holds those keys.

I can only SMH at the dang inner-fighting among so-called Christians over this issue.

I’m thinking the Governor must be really bored, and wants to spend all his time in court fighting the Deprivation of Rights charges that will be stacking up against him. This is the only thing I can think of that begins to make sense. Or maybe he’s just really freaking stupid?

My wife’s DIL basically said that while we were discussing the bakery VS LGBT issue. I asked why our side always had to give in on tolerance issues. Her answer? You are born Gay, you don’t have a choice, but belief in God is a choice.

This cancer was always going to metastasize. History teaches us that once you slam the door of churches and tell the faithful to get lost, things deteriorate rapidly along very predictable lines. If it isn’t counter-revolutionaries which the Church is harboring, it’s a virus. Either way, it never ends well.

How many cases have they brought? That is where the rubber meets the road.

“... In history class in public school I remember something about Ben Franklin saying “A republic, if you can keep it.” Well? Can we? I fear for our constitutional republic.”

Hate to say it, but I don’t believe the Republic actually survived Franklin. And not much of anything I’ve seen in the past 46 or 47 years makes me think we might be able to recover it.
