I was on my faith journey, but not a believer, in February 2020. I started going to church in January. In March they closed down the churches, and in June they were still closed down.If you actually believe in eternity and life after death with Jesus Christ then fearing some disease with 99.9% survival rate is a sign that your faith is entirely fraudulent.
I could not believe that church-going Americans allowed this to happen.
I only saw one or two videos of people going to places like Wal-mart and saying, "This is a church" and worshipping there because Wal-mart was open while churches were closed. And in the video(s) I saw, it was Blacks.
Reading the actual New Testament, it's very clear that Jesus and the early church leaders would not have closed down the church for something like COVID. In fact, they may have gone underground.
I wasn't aware of the church (any denomination) and the politics of things, and the fact that hardly any religious organizations fought back, and those who did had to push back on the higher ups...we're doomed.
I've made some mistakes in life and I'm not sure I'll ever be able to correct them, but I can damned sure say if they made church illegal I would find a way to worship with others, and not over fucking zoom.
