Re: Did you get the COVID vaccination?

Nobody in the plain world cares about covid anymore unless they’re a hypochondriac. If you're afraid of plain people having funerals, yes, you're a hypochondriac. While I do care about COVID, I am not afraid of plain people having funerals, so it's still unclear to me whether or not you consider me...

Re: Did you get the COVID vaccination?

Maybe they could've had multiple services to lessen the density of people in the building. Maybe one of those services could've been outdoors. There was likely an outdoor component to the service already, at the graveside.

Re: Did you get the COVID vaccination?

I'm not so confounded that the funerals were held. It's more that, as RZehr said, no precautions were taken. It's not an all-or-nothing thing.

Re: Did you get the COVID vaccination?

Josh, you completely missed my point. Also, did you intend to refer to me as a hypochondriac?

Re: Did you get the COVID vaccination?

Pretty much everyone knew it was going to be a “super spreader event” beforehand, and no precautions were taken. This is just mind-boggling to me... How many people died from COVID after this? I don't know, and neither do you. This is a disease that spreads exponentially. But let's just assume that...

Re: Why is Kierkegaard not considered an Anabaptist voice...?

Disclaimer—I don't really know much about Kierkegaard. I suppose this takes us to what defines Anabaptism and Anabaptists, but I think it'd be a stretch to call Kierkegaard an Anabaptist because he neither belonged to an Anabaptist church nor specifically affirmed Anabaptist doctrines such as believ...

Re: 20 year war and the Withdrawl of Troops from Afghanistan

So I don't know much about military schemes and logistics, but it seems like basic common sense to me to extract the people you want to take out of a country first, before extracting the military personnel. Is there something I am missing? My understanding (subject to correction) is that the Americ...

Re: CPR with sacrificial love.

My scenario was specifically scripted to remove AED's and barriers because the focus was on the personal risk you took to yourself to save a life. Some of us seem very anti-covid vaccines, tested or restrictions in general for personal health and the question would make sense to see if this is a on...
