What part of The State of Washington allows 100 people spaced Sox feet apart to meet in church is listed in the following:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;

The church failed the body of Christ and their mission.

Maybe the state of Washington has not heard of the Constitution. If so, it’s time somebody enlightened them, doing it the hard way if necessary.

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...”

You’re speaking of a real see saw here as I don’t disagree with you, I’m saying what it was versus what it could have been. About half the states shut down churches in a formal atmosphere during the pandemic whether right or wrong. It was a game of semantics rather than the privileges of the citizens and their ability to make up their own minds concerning their wishes and safety.

Unfortunately the religious community didn’t really press the issue even though they had laws on their sides, working within the system, because they bought into the fear presentation the media supplied to the governments. The government got away with it and the community failed in their beliefs when they got “bluffed.”
