Trump can be useful, but his team doesn't inspire much confidence. I imagine we will hear more about how investing in the stock market is the patriotic thing to do, and how wearing a mask is "totally optional".

This is a very easy call, he doesn't need a team

I think he was accused of "celebrating" a death. I didn't see that, but if you guys say so...

But, does the preacher guy get special treatment over those liking a post suggesting that the death of someone drinking "fish tank cleaner" is funny, or deserved it for being ignorant? You guys better get busy, over this "like shaming".

"Accused" is more than likely giving too much benefit at this point. It happened in another thread. The previous seemed to be more politically motivated.

It waddles and quacks.

Totally valid question. We are instructed to come together, and edify one another. And do certain things when we come together and as oft as we come together. Christianity is a community. Worship is a community just as much as it is individual. If it were only individual, it would have never survived the roman persecution and flourished.

Can it be watched at home? Sure, we've done it on occasion. Our congregation has a very nice technology set up. We live stream, you tube channel, can even produce concerts. We have a very big and up to date package. Can even do your online contributions and have deducted automatically, for those who travel alot or have jobs that keep them away a lot. Was online the same for me. No. But, that's just me. we have some you may only see on Sunday morning, and not every one at that because they go help smaller congregations in the county maybe on Sunday night, or Wednesday. As a congregation, the elders elected to comply and suspend services in lieu of online. And the full service. Singing. Communion. Sermon. The works. There is a break for you to do communion with family. They've made every accommodation. We have groups of people that have been assigned five families to maintain contact with. I get two calls a week for prayers, needs, etc. Community worship starts with the individual. But, it is no less vital.

Richmond Pastor dies from complications related to COVID-19

I agree, but some people are not taking the virus serious at all.

That's because he just got two more houses and four sports cars for dropping out like a good little boy.

That was what Sanders wanted from the beginning. He's a hypocrite plain & simple.

All his supporters end up looking like stupid idiots ... for believing in idiot lies that never would come true.

It would be fruitless to assume he contracted CV because he held services. It was an unfortunate circumstance. I respect his right to hold services. However, the entire discussion has been forbidding churches to meet, in a land of separation of church and state. And targeting Christian gatherings, when Lowe's could be a hot bed of sick people. I'm not a fan of disbanding services temporarily, as I've never been exposed to a church closing it's doors for any reason my entire life. But, I understand why our elders made that decision, and I accept it and it is what it is. I work two jobs, still report to both. Maybe been lucky. Maybe cause we only have 34 cases, some of which were out of towners driving here for tests, and our county has been fortunate. The entire Cumberland Plateau has few cases respectively. Mass congregation is a factor. But, it will happen now or later. This virus is here to stay. And it will continue to pop it's head up wherever mass gatherings occur because carriers can be asymptomatic. So, at what point does life go on. Why arrest Christian protesters standing outside 6 feet apart abiding by recommended gathering protcol in front of a packed out abortion clinic where no arrests were made. Selective enforcement against Christians gathering? How many new cases were spread inside that clinic, but they get a free pass?

I understand if you don't say. What CoC do you go to? I am a minister in the Christian Churches (not DOC).

I was so hungry I can't remember.

I figured I could just win my soul back in a fiddle contest. But the devil never hopped up on a hickory stump near me.
