  1. You mean in the fantasy American that exists in the little minds of the deluded right-wing nuts. I highly recommend that you and the horse you rode in on abjure all science and vaccines, especially all vaccines.

  3. I wonder what the relative ratio of christians and atheists in prison for violent crimes is. Hint, the atheist are better educated, and less violent, and less sure that the fictional teaching stories they were taught in grade school are things that actually happened. Did you know that George Washington could not tell a lie, and threw a silver dollar across the Potomac river? Also did you know that when Jesus was crucified the sun stood still in the sky and the dead emerged from their graves to walk the streets? I know there is no historical account of such events, even though it took place at the height of the Roman empire when fastidious accounts were made of even mundane events. But you know, it was written in the gospels about a hundred years after the event, by the Greeks who wrote them, so it must have happened. I bet you did not even know that the gospels were not written by the disciples at all, and the first one was recorded 60 years after the event in another country by people who were not even in the same continent. Must be literally true then aye?

  5. I bet your father was vaccinated against polio.

  6.  @kathryncasey4114  I think you may find that polio was anything but rare until saint Jonas Salk produced a vaccine. Some people do have very strong immune systems, and if they are in good physical health, their chances of only minor symptoms if they contract covid are apparently good. But that may have been more true before the mutations. From what I have heard delta is killing young people who are in good shape far more frequently than before the mutation. It may sound harsh, but I kind of like the social darwinism that is now taking place regarding those who have refused vaccination because of inane conspiracy theories. Of course the downside to this is that they provide a potential for further mutations that seem to be breaking through to the vaccinated, though with much less deadly results. Personally I got vaccinated in January with Moderna even though I am a healthy seventy year old. So obviously I would recommend that everyone get vaccinated. On the other hand, at this stage, now that the vaccines are available, this pandemic seems to be getting rid of many people who I personally consider to have a net negative effect on the county and the advancement of human culture in general. So as callus as it may be, I have mixed feelings about whether they get vaccinated or persist with their stupidity.

  7. Could be, but I still judge a nation by the state of it's prisons.
