Well, as a fan of lets remove all the warning labels, I wouldn't say I have reveled in the death of anyone. But, I'm certainly not shedding a tear for the fuck around and find out crowd. Darwinism at its finest.

I may be wrong, but have you not posted the headlines of those dying who have openly been against the vaccines and other covid measures? those seem like touchdown dances for those openly campaigning against those that have those views. ( if you havent posted those types of articles in the past I apologize in advance, I have seen plenty of them but dont really take the time to read them or take note of who is posting them)

Nope. About 99.9% of my posts have been football.

I have posted many such stories and it is not a victory dance at all. I am actually offended that you would suggest that. Most, if not all, of those stories are people who regret that they did not take the vaccine and their friends and family (and even themselves before they pass, are advocating that people take the vaccine. What is a better way to convince people to vaccinate than for people who believed that Covid would not harm them to then realize that they were wrong.

there have been some post such articles that have been less than cordial in their discourse on the subject matter that would lead others to believe that the intent of the post was nothing more than dancing on a the grave. I havent seen that from you on this matter so as such I apologize if you took it that way and no, I wasnt referring to your posts. thank you for keeping your disagreements and disapproval on the matter civil and adult in nature.
Every single time someone is spreading misinfo about covid and the vaccines it seems to start with “I googled…”
Do you honestly believe that your googling skills supplant the billions of dollars of research and departments dedicating researching viruses and vaccines? Honestly.
Also I have a duty as the admin of this site to keep dangerous misonformation from being spread. I will use my admin privleges to do so.
Please keep your googling research to yourself as it pertains to the current pandemic that we are under.
Thanks.

so your googling SCIENCE trumps everyone else since you hold the keys. Sounds pretty normal in 2021.
I long for the days when science didn't mean doing what the politicians told us to do.

Very insightful article that I had never known..Thanks!
He later published detailed instructions on how to perform an inoculation, and his decades of cataloguing survival rates probably played a role in George Washington’s decision during the Revolutionary War to order the entire Continental Army to be inoculated. Washington had natural immunity after surviving a bout of smallpox in his youth.
(My comment: Isn't Biden trying to have all military personnel inoculated for Covid 19? I don't think there is any doubt about it's affectiveness or safety if you are willing to give it to your whole military? I am not actually following this topic as closely as others from the political side. I already know most of the science being in Infectious Disease Medical Sales for 30 years.)
So why, only six years later, did Franklin’s son go uninoculated as another outbreak raged through Philadelphia? Many historians have accepted “at face value” Franklin’s explanation that he was waiting for his son’s health to improve, Coss wrote in Smithsonian Magazine. However, he proposes a different explanation, that Franklin’s wife was afraid of inoculation and convinced her husband not to subject their son to it. He notes that the couple’s relationship, once love-filled and affectionate, degenerated after Franky’s death. Franklin began characterizing his wife as irresponsible and questioned her fitness as a mother.
In 1759, Franklin wrote about such a scenario, while exploring the public’s reticence to accept inoculation. When “one parent or near relation is against it the other does not chuse to inoculate a child without free consent of all parties, lest in case of a disastrous event, perpetual blame should follow.”
He also began to spend significant amounts of time away from her, like spending more than a decade in England when he originally said he would be gone a few months. He often took his daughter, grandson and other family members with him on these trips, but never her. In the last 17 years of her life, they spent only two years together, Coss wrote.
Near the end of his life, as he was writing his autobiography, the blame theme continued. After saying he “long regretted bitterly" the circumstances of his son’s death, he added this warning:
“This I mention for the Sake of Parents, who omit that Operation on the Supposition that they should never forgive themselves if a Child died under it; my Example showing that the Regret may be the same either way, and that therefore the safer should be chosen.”
(My comment: you can see how difficult a decision it can be especially when vaccines/inoculation were a new procedure back in the late 1700's)

Mostly, I am curious in why people possess the beliefs they hold.
Our Constitution is a divinely inspired document. (natural rights, Bill of Rights.... inalienable from God)
It's what makes us (US) exceptional....not that "we're BETTER", just "better" in recognizing where blessings flow.
Next to the Bible, the US Constitution is the most magnificent idea, ever imagined.
You're a lawyer, right? Respect the majesty.
^^ well, that's "why" I possess.
Thomas Paine would disagree with you.
He was a deist, not a believer in any organized religion, especially anything the Jews, Romans, and Protestants were selling. He likened the story of Jesus to a pagan story. He believed that any organized theology was a contrived invention fueled by the lust of power by man.
He would consider your belief not as a revelation, but as hearsay.
Thomas Paine, author of commonsense and the rights of man.
The foundation on which the constitution was built.
^^^^^ was thinking about Thomas Paine reading thru this thread
