@Leadfoot,
...ah common you n me are pals!
An atheist that believes in Ultimate order and a believer that accepts Evil in the World is part of God's plan.

We make a good party.

PS Have you got Kodiak 100 STOL plane for MSFS 2020 yet? It is near perfect!

Gorsuch unmasked? Argues that COVID is no big deal, flu kills 100s of 1000s of people every year

Comment:
Blue states will issue mask mandates anyway and the people who will die will be in red states.

Due to death rates, real-estate prices in red states will plummet. Then people from blue states will move there to take advantage of the low prices and take over the voting block.

The problem with republicans, solved.

You see the numbers on where the blue state people are moving to? Why is that?
That has FL and TX people concerned. But not about Covid.

@Albuquerque,
Good party indeed.

I spend more time fiddling with my rig than playing with it. Still no good graphics cards for sale (at MSRP anyway). It’s playable on monitor but only getting about 10 fps in VR mode which is how I like to play. Pretty shaky.

When I do play I’m usually in the DA 40, an Extra 300 or something else with good cockpit visibility. Not into IFR in spite of the amazingly good simulation. Think I’ll download the Rino race package today.

Covid Live Updates: Omicron Drives Average Daily Global Cases Past 2 Million
The average has nearly tripled over two weeks. In the U.S., waits at testing centers are often hours long and pharmacies can barely keep at-home tests on shelves. Omicron may be harder for those tests to detect.

That is a lot of people riding their motorcycles! (cynical)

Florida Man Accused Of Bringing Explosives To Rally Supporting Jan. 6 Suspect
Garrett James Smith was arrested and charged with making and possessing a destructive device and loitering.
AP

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — A Florida man with homemade explosive devices was arrested early Friday near a Tampa Bay area rally in support of a man being held in connection with last year’s insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, authorities said.

Garrett James Smith, 22, of Oldsmar, was arrested and charged with making and possessing a destructive device and loitering, Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri said during a news conference.

To mark the anniversary of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, the rally was held Thursday night outside the Pinellas County Jail was in support of Jeremy Brown, a member of the rightwing Oath Keepers group. He was being held on charges of participating in the riot.

The sheriff said Smith was spotted across the street from the rally in a parking lot. Deputies said he was running away from the area, dressed in all black with his face covered. He was initially detained on the loitering charge, and deputies reported finding a pipe bomb when they searched his backpack. Another explosive was found during a search of Smith’s home, officials said.

Smith didn’t place or detonate any of the explosives, officials said. Gualtieri said Smith hasn’t been cooperating with investigators, and his political motivations weren’t immediately clear. Smith was being held on $300,000 bond. Jail records didn’t list an attorney for him.

Did he plan to blow up a few cops to free the seditious traitor?

@TheCobbler,
They are correct.

This body you have is a prop.

Know what it means,
“For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it.” (Matthew 16:25)

I assume it means to not be so attached to your body that you take measures to prevent your death. The safetyism culture is rejection of real life in favor of a sick sort of false immortality.

@TheCobbler,
O noes.

You understand that this is not as you seem to assume, 2 million deaths. Nor is it even 2 million cases from omicron. This is 2 million cases mentioned from all people, past and present since its beginning in 2020. This is with all manner of data fudging, factored worldwide
https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/WLD/world/birth-rate
Now, 2020 to 2022 COVID propaganda has put a dent in wild sex get-togethers, as a population control idea. But even assuming most people are close to one-child families nowadays, get lucky later rather than sooner, and aren't repopulating at replacement rate, the number is The current birth rate for World in 2022 is 17.668 births per 1000 people, a 1.15% decline from 2021. They don't mention the key part of whether that's once per year or like every second or something. The Earth has roughly 7.9 billion people, and has been expected to climb to 11 billion people at one point or another (according to the link above, it's slowing down). For the sake of not making you completely phobic about overpopulation, we'll assume this is births per year and not births per minute or even births per second. But when I type in births per second, I get this statistic.
Quote:
The crude birth rate is 18.2 births per 1,000 population or 267 births globally per minute or 4.5 births every second (2018 estimate).

If we were to assume once per year, no twins or multiples, between 18.2 and 17.6 births (thanks COVID for making people afraid of sex), and let's assume low one...
In 1000 means roughly 17.6/1000th of the population or 17.9 * 7.9 million are getting lucky or 123200000. Dammit I typed in 9 instead of 6 in the calculator. Anyway, that's actual births. You mentioned two million CASES, not DEATHS. Meaning the biggest actual threat of COVID is that it prevents wild orgies from happening. Barring those, a few less people are getting together. And maybe COVID drug interactions are causing miscarriages. But even with all that, cases are 1/60th the birthrate. They're not talking about death, as the nondoctored death rate is rather pathetic, and those who worship at the altar of COVID are satisfied with case numbers. I am not. This whole thing stinks and we need to stop it. It is causing untold poverty and unemployment, which leads to actually dying of completely different reasons.

That is a bunch of crap and fear mongering.

The earth gave us our body and we are supposed to love and cherish it.

We are not supposed to disregard it and give it foolishly to some spaghetti monster God to feed his bloodthirsty ego.

We have one life and the reason why people die is not because they wanted to save their life and the reason why some people die for their God is because they are stupid.

God can die for himself if he wants honor so bad.

Another example of how pro life liberals are compared to republicans who have fought affordable care and Covid safety measures.

@TheCobbler,
There's an expression that goes something like "Is the Pope Christian?"

Maybe not.

Look through the Bible.

In addition to the quote here from izzy
Quote:
You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor tattoo any marks on you: l am the Lord.

There's also what I said about the Mark of the Beast.

Yet, the Pope just shrugs all this off to tell people how it is "moral" and an obligation. In fact, the Pope is not a spiritual leader at all but an indwelling of Antichrist.

“I receive not honour from men. But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.” John 5:41,42 (KJV)

Quote:
“I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.” John 5:43 (KJV)

The Christ doesn't proclaim his own name, but comes on behalf of God. However, the current Pope...
Quote:
“Thank you for your kind words. Once again, following a tradition by which I feel honored, the Secretary General of the United Nations has invited the Pope to address this distinguished assembly of nations. In my own name, and that of the entire Catholic community, I wish to express to you, Mr Ban Ki-moon, my heartfelt gratitude.

In my own name, he says.

You are being tricked. Maybe there is a Hell, maybe not, but you are being tricked into something very stupid in this life.

Here's what this passage means. It means you should not worry about your death because you are promised immortality. But the false god of the Earth which you credit at having created you tells you that you don't have a life after this one. The Earth cannot make bodies, btw. God doesn't need our deaths. He comes to give us life eternal, but he also wants us not to be enslaved by fear of death.

Imagine this scenario. A ghoulish doctor intent of making profit designs an unethical medicine that has virtually no effect on the disease it claims to treat (what is it, six boosters now? They keep coming up with new variants to avoid telling people that these vaccines don't even work) but does have a number of side effects, which the people will come in to complain about.
https://www.christianitydaily.com/articles/13138/20210903/fda-knew-what-the-covid-vaccine-s-side-effects-were-before-it-became-available-but-approved-it-anyway.htm
They have a video of them talking about these side-effect symptoms.
https://youtu.be/1XTiL9rUpkg
(It's 9 hours, have fun!)
In fact, the medicine itself can be free (since it's ****) but they get money hand-over-fist treating the side effects. This is you. You are the sucker that is likely to get sick or even die following the science.

But don't worry! I'll die too! Unlike you, I understand that there is an afterlife, and I will die instead of something else. In fact, everyone here will die! The point being you tell me that you're too smart to be fooled by silly superstitions, but you're the one who thinks taking a drug will prevent you from dying.

@glitterbag,
God loves me plenty.

Only, I understand the difference between the love God gives and the "love" that the world gives. The love the world gives is a lie because it is conditional. No matter how much of a shitty troll I am, God's love remains.

The world tells me that I'm hateful but can't actually tell why. But I know why.
https://ih0.redbubble.net/image.301034912.9629/raf,750x1000,075,t,fafafa:ca443f4786.u16.jpg

You see, I don't hate gays but I will tell them rightly that gay sex is a sin that will give them diseases. Admitting things are a sin is a good step.
And I don't hate illegal immigrants, but I hate that illegal immigration results in exploitation of migrants, including sex trafficking and work exploitation.
And I don't hate transgender people, because I'm in the trans spectrum, but I do not want to surgically change my genitals because I know that the surgery causes sterilitiy.
And I don't hate people with masks or with vaccines though some of them probably want to kill me. But I won't hesitate to tell them when things are seriously wrong with either.
