Gov. Andrew Cuomo: More Powerful Than God? "We brought the numbers down. God did not do that, faith did not do that..."
American Thinker ^ | 04/17/2020 | By Bill Zwerger

How else would one interpret his presumptuous proclamation at his latest press conference?

What in hell (no pun intended) would prompt NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo to exclaim, in a most haughty manner, that in regard to "flattening the curve" (man, do I despise that term) "We brought the numbers down. God did not do that, faith did not do that..."? I mean, I realize that he ranks very high (top three by my calculations) on the list of America's most narcissistic public figures, but this is the next level arrogance. 

If you think that this is even too much for even uber tyrant Emperor Andy, and need more proof, take a listen for yourself at the 42:25 mark of his presser posted on Facebook.

Now, I do realize that Cuomo is not the only government authority to downplay/marginalize/outright dismiss the role that religious faith, i.e. Christianity, plays in our society, and seems to almost revel in his ability to temporarily (?) lock down houses of worship. However, to the best of my knowledge, Governor "il Duce" is the only one to (in)directly blame a religious group for his state's COVID-19 outbreak:  “It’s hard. But on the flip side, I say look what happened in New Rochelle. Those were religious gatherings,” the governor said, referring to the number of Wuhan coronavirus infections that occurred as a result of a gathering at a synagogue. “You worship the way you can, but the gatherings are just not a good idea."

As so aptly observed by Jonathon Van Maren at Lifesite News

Why would he or anyone ever say anything like that? What an idiot, glad I don’t live in NY.

Gov. SlowMo is just a moron. But we shouldn’t have expected less here.

He was told not to present himself for communion back when he was shacking up with his GF. I don't think he attends church much at all unless there's a photo op involved.

Like I said, an antiChrist individual.

Liberals.

Politics is their religion.
Washington is their temple.
Abortion is their sacrament.
They find their god in the mirror.

Actually, Cumo by banning treatment brought the numbers up. God did not do that. Cumo did.

Rut-roh!

This will not end well in New York.

He must give thanks to Divine Providence, or he will sleep with the fishes before this plague is finished.

Cuomo! HUMBLE THYSELF

Denies and mocks, all in one statement.

Not smart, but then....we know this arrogant schmuck is not a mental giant.

Someone posted somewhere something about the builder of the Titanic that said that not even God could sink that boat. And we know how that turned out.

Could we be about to see God make a statement about this soon?

Said a little differently:

Brethren, join in following my example, and note those who so walk, as you have us for a pattern. For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame—who set their mind on earthly things. -- Phil 3:17-19

God loves arrogance in people. Nothing bad has ever happened to prideful people in the Bible. cuomo is even smarter than his brother fredo, not dumb like everyone says. Keep telling God you’re better than Him. That’s a smart plan.

If God is responsible for the numbers coming down then God is also responsible for the numbers going up in the first place.

The builder of the Titanic was a devout Scotch Presbyterian. I think the blasphemous remark was made by press or White Star Line publicists, etc.

Acts 12:1-23

...”On an appointed day, Herod dressed himself in royal clothing, sat on the throne, and made a speech to them. The people shouted, “The voice of God, and not of a man!” Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him, because he didn’t give God the glory. He was eaten by worms and died.”

Like John Lennon, he claims to be “more famous than Christ”.

Nothing but a virtue-signaler when he pretends to be a practicing Catholic. But all Dem Catholic politicians are the same.
