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.

Hmmmm.... Who controls New York and California? And even then, who seems to realize living all packed together in cities is a good idea? Most of it is in blue territory.
People of all kinds blow money on booze, drugs, and maybe hookers.

Or one could argue that athiest Progressives (Communists) from China, much like those at the New York Times, were to blame for the pandemic.
militant atheists can’t keep their hatred of Christians in the closet much

Quoting:
Katharine Stewart was born in Boston, Massachusetts. She is Jewish.[4]
Well, there’s a heart full of hatred.
It oozes through every word she writes.
Nah. They don't blow the money on other things.
They steal it and line their own pockets with it. And then lie about it.
Does she mean like Cuomo and DeBlasio who told NYC there's no danger and they should go out and socialize and have the Chinese New Year, and the NO mayor who let Mardi Gras go on?
Kinda like that?
That “news” paper is not commonly called THE NY SLIMES without just cause.
TRUST NOTHING that THE SLIMES claims that is more controversial than the latest sports scores or today’s weather report. = LIES are at least as common at THE NY SLIMES as facts are.

This is literally too stupid to discuss.

The New York Times has clearly a hard on for Christians everywhere on every subject 24/7. They never pass up a chance to hate on Christianity.
Only fit for the outhouse.
Bernie Sanders “is Jewish”, and an atheist (as was Obama)
they’d never give THAT up for Lent.
the only matches I find when I search her name and Islam/Sharia is that she finds “evangelical”, Pence, etc to be trying to institute “Christian sharia”
She isn’t against every theocracy. She is just against Christians an their freedom of assembly.
I think she is simply a democrat, speaking hate.
Democrats can’t even concede that people are born as either girls or boys. They think it’s a personal choice. Republicans, or at least some of them, myself included, don’t agree that we’re descended from monkeys. This caused a coronavirus epidemic? Woodrow Wilson was POTUS in 1918, during the Spanish Flu pandemic. Does this refute the NYTs’ narrative—I mean...hm...herm...ahem...giggle...”theory”?
