Religion and spiritual belief are fine, but many organized religions have very bad effects on the world as well, those should be criticized and counteracted.
I'm with you, here.
I'm in favor of supporting positive religions. Some religions are toxic and harmful.
I went to two churches, both Christian, but can be summarized like this:
1. Southern Baptist: Multiple sermons and almost all talked about being better than everyone, how everyone around them is evil and terrible, and weird self-back-pats about awesome they are for being part of that church. It was awkward and toxic. The people...uhhh...some were decent but almost all had a sickening, self-righteous, hateful way about them. You know, like some Mormons are in Utah (I cannot stand those types).
2. Random non-Denominational Christian Church: Great group, had a rock band, the head Pastor gave multiple sermons about not judging others, working hard for those around you, repenting and putting your faith in God, etc. Great bunch. The people were good, too.
That second church is a church I would not feel bad about giving money to because they actually do work for the community and preached positive messages.
Texas woman claimed COVID-19 is a media hoax and can be stopped by "faith." Days later she died.She said more people have died in cross-stitching accidents than coronavirus infections. Now COVID-19 has killed her.
A Texas woman who mocked the coronavirus pandemic on Facebook as a media hoax has died from COVID-19 two weeks later.
The pandemic is "controlled" by "radical people in powerful places," Karen Kolbe Sehlke posted. She also added that "cross stitching accidents" have "probably" killed more people than the virus that's killing thousands of people worldwide.
"With deep sadness and Broken Hearts we share with you that Karen Kolb Sehlke, a loving wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend to all that knew her, went to be with our Lord when she passed away unexpectedly Thursday, April 2, 2020," her friends wrote in a GoFundMe appeal to cover her burial costs.
"Karen became very sick and was admitted to the hospital near her home in Tomball Tx earlier this week. She fought hard until her body just could not fight anymore. Karen was a BRIGHT LIGHT, the LIFE of the party, an amazing friend, but above this a hands on, caring, loving mom and devoted wife."
Sehlke was a Donald Trump supporter who bought into the GOP messaging that the pandemic was being politicized and overblown in an effort to hurt the president's re-election chances.
"If you think for one second this 'pandemic' is not media driven, and controlled by the radical people in powerful places… well… go back to sleep under the rock you crawled out from," she wrote. "Wake up!!! This is what the beginning of socialism looks like!"
"They are crashing the stock market to run on a failing economy, because it's all they have left," she added.
"You don't need hand sanitizer, toilet paper, and Lysol. You need common sense, a sense of direction, faith, a will to fight, and of course guns!"
After news of her death spread, the family edited their GoFundMe to remove that she died from COVID-19 and instead said the details of how she died are not public. They noted that her family is in quarantine and people can deliver them food—if they leave it outside the home to prevent the further potential spread of the disease. They’'re providing hand sanitizer wipes outside for anyone who delivers food.
UPDATE: The passage asking for food was removed along with the acknowledgement that Sehlke had died from the virus she'd just mocked. There was no update on the health of her husband and two sons.
L-O-L.
Of course she is a Christian, Republican, Trump supporter who believes in conspiracies, and loves guns. Oh, and is completely irresponsible—as evident by her death—but also, because her family is e-begging for burial expenses and meals, because they did not have insurance or make preparations for the pandemic.
What are the chances her husband and children learn anything from this? I am betting close to zero.
I am glad this idiot is dead, I am only sorry she did not take her whole family with her.

Similar nutty rants towards covid-19 and Trump are to be found on KMC...

The physicians did their best but it is only due to divine intervention that Clay Bentley was cured of his affliction. Clay Bentley was there. He is a first hand witness to the power and voice of the Lord. Clay made his announcement on FOX and this is a subsequent report from Breitbart.
Recovered Coronavirus Patient: God Breathed into My Lungs and Healed Me
Seriously though, what country and which people take this stupid s hit seriously? The answer is that millions of Americans accept as factual the fables promoted by FOX and Breitbart. Clay Bentley is either delusional or a liar and I lean to the second possibility.
Those same Americans who support Trump fully accept the claims of some miraculous healing. You may ask if all miracles are fake and my answer is yes, they all are fake. There's some kind of insanity loose in America and the world.
This guy is legit. He caught COVID-19 and showed symptoms in under 24 hours, being hospitalized a full 4-5 days ahead of normal schedule, and even got antibiotics for the virus.
I don't know why anyone would question the validity of his claims.
