I'm not going to rule it out, but then I'm not going to live in fear everyday of slipping up and disappointing the Big Guy. So I try to live my life the best I can, every day.........

They said it hurt plenty. I think one of the big problems is that there have been enough people who have become infected and recovered and it wasn't a big deal to them. So now they are evangelical about not wearing a mask and telling everyone it wasn't a big deal. I recently got into an argument with a co-worker who got infected because he traveled home to visit family and likely picked it up on the airplane or along the way. He had a mild case and recovered. Anyway, he is now telling everyone he knows that masks don't work and there is no point. He is quoting scientific BS that doesn't exist. I called him out on it and he finally shut up and walked away. But he still was stubbornly convinced that masks do nothing to stop the spread despite mounds of scientific evidence. I would punch him in the nose if it wouldn't cost me my job.

But the soul is eternal. It is remembered even if in passing. The soul is the entire embodiment of a being. Whole people are made up of more soul than of flesh and blood. a person's worth is more than material goods, money. property. It is what they are remembered for, how they lived their lives, and the physical impact or influence they had on others, or metaphysical things, the wisdom, education, or humor that they imparted on the way.....

This has allowed the kool aid drinkers to deny -- even as they lay dying -- the Covid Effect. When I hear an official state there are no beds available in Los Angeles, I believe it, no matter how clear the air is in the City of Hayseed, East Bumfuck County, MN. I don't follow Dr Drew But I've heard of him. His latest, now that he's sick: “My early comments about equating coronavirus with influenza were wrong. They were incorrect. I was part of a chorus that was saying that. And we were wrong." To argue against rational responses to contagion is ignorance on display. I'm out of fucks to give to HLife, or the several hundred dumbasses I know myself. Not everything has to be learned the hard way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's a world-view to be really proud of. And typically ignorant as well. The bug has killed 10X as many people as cars. Annual road deaths are around 35,000 - the bug should hit 350,000 later today or early tomorrow - for about 10 months. For intelligent people, that an order of magnitude greater.

Yeah ... no. I saw some data recently to the effect that if you count all the US deaths so far this year, then subtract the usual # of deaths in any given year, we already have 200,000 extra deaths. So 2OOK or 300K ... something new is killing a lot of people. Nobody thinks you're lying, but misinformed at the very least. Too bad regular folk have to be exposed by the arrogantly ignorant who disregard what they see in front of them. US righties blah, blah, blah... But Spain lefties's numbers are much worse, so maybe left-right is not the issue. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think we're supposed to add ~80m people to the planet this year? Is that increase in deaths on par with the projected 1.08% growth? If there was 58m deaths last year, could those added deaths be that 1% increase? I come up with 2020 should have about 625k more than last year. You can manipulate stats any which way you want. It's not serious for me. It's not been serious for anyone I know. Which is about 15 people. My drive to work this morning was far more life threatening than the rona. I don't know who you can trust. You must be less intelligent than the dust that collects on your shoes. I'm sorry I couldn't insult you in a more intelligent way but your idiocy drives me crazy.

I'm sure somebody with such a clearly superior intellect and high functioning reasoning knew that. So, is the friend sick with the rona, or is it too much fun watching people jump to conclusions?

A quick look finds 1,800 children die every year from cancer, so far this year about 100 children have died from covid. And just to be clear I'm not diminishing the effect covid is having on peoples lives. It's real nobody is seriously disputing such information, just pointing out that a kid with cancer aint going to give it to their grandparents..... the issue is how much responsibility does an individual have to not spread a disease to another?
