The New York Times published an op-ed Friday that blamed evangelical Christians for the coronavirus pandemic.
The argument, by journalist and author Katherine Stewart, is that because religious voters supported Trump, that means he governs without regard for science.
Stewart also claims that Republicans, more than Democrats, are likely to deny science.
In her op-ed, titled The Road to Coronavirus Hell Was Paved by Evangelicals, she writes:
Donald Trump rose to power with the determined assistance of a movement that denies science, bashes government and prioritized loyalty over professional expertise. In the current crisis, we are all reaping what that movement has sown.
At least since the 19th century, when the proslavery theologian Robert Lewis Dabney attacked the physical sciences as theories of unbelief, hostility to science has characterized the more extreme forms of religious nationalism in the United States.
She then goes on to provide several quotes from pastors who pushed back against the idea of closing their churches.

The Democratic Party is powered by the spirit of antichrist.
You can take that to the bank.
They have proven to be so, repeatedly.
Like the United Nations, they are awaiting the arrival of their anti-messiah.

Posts like this don’t help an arguemnt.
Reality is, a virus that stems from a Communist country and the treatment is being lead by majority christain western countries.
Her entire premise is full of shit and DUMB. Just DUMB. How she twists this virus as the fault of not Jews, Muslims, Christians...all religious people, BUT AMERICAN Evangelics is the pathetic ramblings of a crazy bitch.
I mean these people lie about the “Science” of climate change, anything regarding gender and race.
ALso, they are all for flooding a country with illegals who, because they are illegal, cannot be screened for health issues before entering a country. They cities in which THEY run get millions more than any other areas of the country, still aren’t prepared for something like this because they blow money on other things, and lie about it.
The left’s entire ideology is one of lies that leads to utter poverty, crime and destruction.
Then we get told how great it is because “Hey look at Canada and Germany” lol
Sure.
Matters not to me.
The Democrats have obviously waged war on Christianity.
They show it repeatedly. I see similar remarks, like this article, by the Huff Po creeps at Yahoo.
Democrats with their “transgender” dare to talk abut other people denying science.
You can’t make this stuff up.
Speaking of the Huff Po creeps at Yahoo, I’ve seen them hope that Easter gatherings at churches wind up killing large numbers of Christians via Covid-19. Yes, at least a couple of them have said this.
I think thats it, right there.

The New York Times published an op-ed Friday that blamed evangelical Christians for the coronavirus pandemic. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Yes, burn all evangelicals at the stake! 9 sarc,)
A lot of NY Slimes staff must be testing positive?
And they also refuse to take Trump recommended Chloquine treatment, choosing trump Derangement Syndrome and death?
So the staff will die by the hundreds at the NY Slimes?
This may be the end of the NY Slimes.
Who will mourn them ? Not I.
‘I mean these people lie about the Science of climate change, anything regarding gender and race.’
people of all sociopolitical stripes have been lying about science for millennia, when it goes against the grain of their faith tenets...in this particular case, it is extremely illogical, but it is the type of thing we’re going to hear from people going forward, particularly from melodramatic females, about what scumbags we are if we don’t believe what they believe, or care as much as they care...
The Left uses blame-shifting, deflection, denial, scapegoating, slander and black mail—anything but the truth. They are never at loss for tricks as they crawl out from under their rocks and throw spit. Perhaps they are so full of it, they have to unload something—anything—before a full-load becomes a pant load that reveals what they have become.
Those pesky Christians at it again!
What a sick newspaper!
The NYT is fomenting hatred for Christians. What follows hatred is oppression, and what follows that is persecution.
Her blaming evangelical’s would be like me blaming unbelievers.
