Welcome to America

[Lou Deman]

And you don't believe that taking certain precautions makes it more likely that your "time" will be extended? Is that what you are saying? Does that not matter to you?

I'm saying I have faith. I have lived and am living a very blessed life. When my time is up I hope to have no regrets. I keep my house in order. I don't know what I believe as far as God or a higher power but I know if there is a next destination that I can reroll the film of my existence and I'll be just fine. Maybe I shouldn't poke the bear though, I'm trying to get it right

 

[Lou Deman]

For all the bravado espoused here I'll bet someone wouldn't walk into a Sacred Heart break room full of nurses and start shouting this nonsense.

The lock down had nothing to do with protecting the infirm, elderly and immune compromised. It had everything to do with slowing the spread (masks slow too) to prevent overwhelming our medical facilities and workers. The vaccine was another way to slow the spread.

Y'all are arguing will pure willful ignorance and this is how he gets his jollies.

I'm gonna honor my word of not swinging back for a few more days but maybe just realize that not everyone thinks like you
I received very good advise when I was young

Never take advise or criticism from someone you wouldn't trade places with

This is why your words mean very little to me

FYI I have a couple of nurses in the family and none of them wanted or got the vaccine.
One of my major deciding points in not getting the vaccine was direct and indirect talks with doctors

Slow your roll

 

[Lou Deman]

My point is that your purpose seems to be driven by political division. Not science. Not truth. Not evidence. Not human compassion. I think you take your freedoms even when it hurts others. I just don't understand why!

My purpose on the vaccine had nothing to do with politics, everybody on earth could have got it and I still wouldn't have.
My choice was based 100% on science and evidence.
Human compassion is an odd one because you want me to do something that may hurt me so you may or may not be safer, do you not see the irony in this?
I will never ask you to give up any of your freedoms and I expect the same in return
Your understanding doesn't factor into my equation

 

[Lou Deman]

The context is saving human lives. You offered nothing to society. Society offered you masks, vaccines, information and many of us gave effort and took a very small risk and got the vaccine. You take. Society gives. You disparage society.

Your opinion is noted

Fine, and in my life, I want absolutely nothing to do with people who's faith is so strong, they think the big guy is looking after them, until of course the bastard decides to kill them.

And it is your right to take that stance, I hope for your sake your not wrong, eternity seems like a long time. Having seen a couple of peoples final breath people always seem pray at the end. You do you though

I'd be light on the bastard in the sky deciding to kill them comments but thats just me

Having faith that you are getting it right is not getting it right. It takes a lot more than you think to get it right and we all keep making mistakes along the way. None of us know everything but my faith is in the planet earth. A miracle planet that has given us all human life. This is as good as it is going to get...

No, you are wrong. You are not basing anything on science. You are not being honest with yourself. If you felt immune strong enough to take on Covid then you should have felt immune strong enough to get the vaccine. You need to be the victim and that is odd. Society gives you freedoms and pleasures and all sorts of good things and you are worried that the vaccine may hurt you. Society did not make you do anything and you hurt society with increasing the risk of transmission of the virus. The sum of your equation is negative...

So you think earth is the end all? You think man is the apex of existence and enlightenment? So you don't believe in the soul? Its all just ashes to ashes for you huh? Why do you care if you live or die then? You're never gonna get any younger, you're never gonna get healthier, at your age things will get progressively worse until you stop being. So your goal is to see how long you can last?

Have you ever thought about what a human being is? Just think how perfect we are. Do you think their was no architect or engineer to our design?

If the earth is the miracle then you must believe in extraterrestrial life because the planet is the life giver. I believe in other life forms too

What if you're wrong?

I hope for your wifes sake your handsome or hung because you are smart as a rock
