WHO WINS? GOD or The NC Virus?

When we have a measles out­break, do we nor­mal­ly look to the fed­er­al or state gov­ern­ment for help? 

Do they have doc­tors and nurs­es on staff and med­ical facil­i­ties at their per­son­al disposal?

If we call the state or fed­er­al Med­ic­aid phone num­bers, are they going to per­son­al­ly diag­nose our ill­ness­es, vis­it us, nurse us, feed us, and help us get healthy again?

NO.

Whom do we call, then?

We call 911, which con­tacts an ambu­lance ser­vice to pick us up and get us to a med­ical facil­i­ty for nec­es­sary care.

Why, then, did the Democ­rats and the reg­u­lar mass media pub­licly raise expec­ta­tions that Pres­i­dent Trump would take respon­si­bil­i­ty for solv­ing the health prob­lems caused by the Nov­el Coro­na Virus/the NC Virus?

Apart from the fact that the Pres­i­dent rose to the occa­sion with his usu­al ener­gy and cre­ativ­i­ty, why was he the one, who should take the blame for any­one get­ting sick or dying from a virus?

When have Amer­i­cans ever accept­ed, as a solu­tion to any prob­lem, stay­ing apart from each oth­er, rather than join­ing togeth­er to do so?

There are many peo­ple, who are work­ing a lot hard­er than usu­al, and they aren’t even rec­og­nized First Respon­ders.  But, with­out them, no one, let alone First Respon­ders, would be able to help any­one.  The inde­fati­ga­ble truck­ers, who wor­ry about trans­port­ing the NC Virus from one place to anoth­er, must be con­sid­ered expend­able, as no one has them dress in pro­tec­tive cloth­ing and stay six feet away from each oth­er, as they car­ry out their indis­pens­able work!  There are many oth­ers, who will not allow the NC Virus Ter­ror to stop them from car­ry­ing out their duties, as they should, and we should join them.

We can­not afford to allow fear of a virus to rule us and to take away our free­dom to wor­ship pub­licly, to live, to work, to recre­ate, and min­gle, as we so choose.  Nor­mal­ly, we would not look to the Pres­i­dent to resolve a health cri­sis — we would look to The One, Who can solve every prob­lem we have and who cares enough about us to do so — GOD!

Fear is a demon, and there are many types of fears, with their cor­re­spond­ing demons, which attack us.  Each time, that we give in to them, they have more and more influ­ence over us and will often block us from using faith and reason/logic to defeat them and to come up with work­able solu­tions to our problems.

Obsta­cles to going back to what was a nor­mal way of living:

1.  Exag­ger­at­ed FEAR of the virus, as if it were the plague. Fear of what could hap­pen to us, our loved ones, as well as the elder­ly and those with health problems.

2.  Patriotism/group think  — fol­low the rules — the gov­ern­men­t’s rules/media doc­tors’ rules, and every­thing will be all right:
 
     a.  Social distancing

1.  Not going to church to wor­ship The God, Who gives us every breath we take and Who loves us enough to have sac­ri­ficed His Only-Begot­ten Son to save us from hell and Who Is in com­plete con­trol of every­one and every­thing, through His Ordain­ing and Per­mis­sive Will.
         
2. Not going to work and get­ting paid, any­way — social­ism.  Thus, we are ruin­ing not only our own eco­nom­ic lives but also that of the coun­try. It is now con­sid­ered patri­ot­ic not to work.  How the mighty Amer­i­cans have fallen!

What, then, should our response to the NC Virus Ter­ror be?  We should cul­ti­vate a wise “fear” of GOD, which is not a demon, but a log­i­cal atti­tude towards GOD, against Whom we are pow­er­less, and with­out Whom we could not exist. We should go back to church and pub­licly and open­ly wor­ship GOD, show our love for Him, repent of our sins, and plead for Mer­cy on us and our coun­try, espe­cial­ly for our cor­po­rate sins against human life, such as abor­tion/ba­by-killing and euthanasia/ mur­der of the elder­ly and the hand­i­capped. GOD Is The Only One, who can free us of the unrea­son­able fear, which has been pro­grammed into us through the media and var­i­ous gov­ern­ment officials.

Regard­ing the tele­vised sta­tis­tics on the NC Virus, which are used to keep us par­a­lyzed with fear, let us look at them through a dif­fer­ent lens. 

Which is real­ly more impor­tant to us — the num­ber of cas­es or the num­ber of deaths caused by the virus? Obvi­ous­ly, we should con­cern our­selves more with the mor­tal­i­ty rate. 

Let’s com­pare the mor­tal­i­ty rate of the NC Virus with oth­er things that Amer­i­cans fre­quent­ly do, which they would not con­tem­plate giv­ing up, and which have a high or com­plete rate of death asso­ci­at­ed with them.

Scru­ti­nize the fol­low­ing chart, and ask your­self why we have tak­en so many dras­tic steps to avoid the virus when the death rate is so low. 

If you divide the cur­rent num­ber of deaths caused by the virus —  by the cur­rent num­ber of Amer­i­cans — approx­i­mate­ly 330,000,000 — the per­cent­age is:  .006!
