If you are saying that this can be justified by actual Christian theology then you are very wrong. Any religion, including Atheism can be used by someone with an agenda. The USSR for example used Atheism for to advance it's political agenda.


Trump tribalism is about as Christian as Trump University is an educational institution.

Also, there is nothing at all in this guys rant about his religion.

I’m sure someone on his media told him so because more than one court has said it’s a religious infringement to force people to wear a mask.

And I was being sarcastic but didn’t think someone in DU wouldn’t get that. My bad. I should have included the sarcasm emoji.

Those "customers" walked in with an attitude, they were already taking a video of the confrontation before they were asked to put on their masks.

I was in a supermarket just this morning, an assistant manager was walking around the store without a mask (it was around his neck) rearranging food on the shelves, his face inches away from packaged food!

In the past I advised the owner that some of his employees weren't wearing their masks properly (mostly leaving their noses uncovered) This time I sent them a scathing message about this today and told them that after 20 years of shopping there I won't go in their store again until they advise me that they've addressed the situation and it won't happen again. I also had the brains this time to take a photograph and will send it to them if they give me an email address (I was only able to file the complaint on their "contact" section of their website)

When they are just doing exactly as Cheesus commanded. Go forth and spread certain strains of lactobacillus, lactococcus or streptococcus to produce those pungent fromages, with some propionibacter shermani added to the Swiss varieties to make those wonderful bubbles. Where would we be without the love of Cheesus?
