Not even close. I proved it to you and you didn’t even acknowledge the fact that you were absolutely wrong!

It's the end of Ramadan so I'm pretty sure many people will be happy to return to Mosque for Eid.


Worst time of the year for Ramadan. What is it?  15 hours?  Or he’ll longer up north.

I work with a guy who said he has to go home around three because he has no energy. I don’t get it.

God I hope not and that goes for all the places of worship. I certainly won’t be there. IMO, places of worship aren’t essential. If you need someone to tell you what to believe in than you have bigger problems and that’s not pointed at you @meazza  All worshippers should have a text book or internet at home. Tune in but don’t go.

Fortunately, you have no say on the matter, unless you are into arson of course.

Luckily I don't have that problem because I don't believe in anything.  I'm a nihilist.

As far as I can tell we reached another milestone  yesterday. Friday was the first day in which NY State did not lead the nation in deaths.  PA and NJ took the top two spots but here again only four states were in excess of 100 Covid related deaths and only just barely.
 

Possibly an even more important stat is that 30 out of 50 states (60%) recorded no Covid deaths at all on Friday.

This doesn’t seem at all arbitrary nor capricious.

...unfortunately, there is a segment of the population that has nothing to cling to but their faith......perhaps parking lot services are a way to bridge the gap until a house of worship can re-open safely.....people like Osteen who exploit those people to the tune of $75 mil annually are vile....

The CDC guidelines for opening places of worship are here. They are onerous.

 

During the last ten minutes of the press briefing, Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany takes the stage and is barraged with questions about opening the churches. Reporters who undoubtedly have no problem shopping at Costco, Target and Total Wine seem to view churches as unique centers of disease.

Yeah, this has flipped into the tyranny category.  I have been at Home Depot, Lowes, the food store and the like and like clockwork, folks are buying such essentials as grills, paint, pavers and decking material. Limit is now 100 people or so, people ripping their masks off as soon as they clear the store exit.  

 

On the other hand, places of worship are targeted with no such allowances.  I'm not a church goer, have not been for years, but something is wrong here.

Well what can you do? Extreme poverty, in fact, the poorest neighborhood in America.  Do you expect people to know better?

 

Did I mention that they're poor?

 

@Chef Jim thoughts on the poorest place in the world?

 

Word has it that the 716 area code is the poorest place in the world.
