So? It's an excellent idea and it would get constant use. Then it would be used all the time and normal ones would be "retro." Or just for term papers.

I know someone from FLA who was in a US middle state for Xmas who ended up hospitalized in a small community hospital with something called "coronavirus". We were all like, what's coronavirus? She recovered without needing a vent but this was late December. When was the first case really reported in the US again?

There's this commandment G-d gave Moses, Mikey. It even predates Jesus, who followed the Mosaic law. It says "You shall not bear false witness." Didn't you learn that in catechism class when you were still Catholic, Mikey? It means NO LYING. That's how Father explained it, or Sister if she was the one who taught your class. And your pastor now should be leaning heavily on those commandments too. You gonna burn in hell, Mikey!

"Is it acceptable to lie for your beliefs? Are you allowed to be dishonest, intentionally mislead others, and cheat and deceive when acting in the name of religion? A group of Christian creationists say yes. The end justifies the means. When you lie for Jesus, you work for God. From an outside point of view, this sounds more like Machiavelli’s "The Prince" rather than "The New Testament."

Same where I live. On Saturday I had my first shift in 3 months (retail), and I walked downtown (too nervous to take the bus). Almost nobody would social distance on the sidewalk and almost no masks. Terrifying.

To Hell with them. Nobody and nothing forced them to swallow those bigger and bigger gulps of meanness and blindness-- all the time getting happier and happier with themselves.
