West Posted March 17, 2022 Report Share Posted March 17, 2022 (edited) Anyone catch the interview Jason Kenney did in a church of all places trying to say he's going to protect churches? Same man who erected a fence around GraceLife Church and arrested multiple pastors for the crime of providing pastoral care to parishioners during Covid? Same guy who threw a pastor in solitary confinement for protesting? The man's a fraud. Defies his own covid orders with his expensive supper at Sky Palace while there were restrictions. I hear the UCP will have him under leadership review. Edited March 17, 2022 by West 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queenmandy85 Posted March 17, 2022 Report Share Posted March 17, 2022 What do you expect from a guy who is a failed philosophy major. I mean, philosophy???? If you get bounced from university because you are failing in philosophy... how did he ever get elected. I won't repeat the rumours that he cheated. Of course, he wasn't the man who erected the fence or threw the pastor in jail. That was a court order. A premier has no authority to direct the police. The pastor was jailed for defying a court order, IIRC. Contempt of Court is a serious offence. 18 minutes ago, West said: I hear the UCP will have him under leadership review. And now Brian Jean won the by-election for the UCP by promising to force Premier Kenney out. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't kid yourself. High profile cases most certainly would hit the premier's desk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonbox Posted March 22, 2022 Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 After it happened, but why do you figure it was Jason Kenney's decision? As Queen Mandy said, it was a court order. What is he going to do about it when it "comes across his desk"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well he did put the ban on religious gatherings while allowing Walmart to do their thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonbox Posted March 22, 2022 Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 because people die without groceries. They don't die because they can't pray in tight, confined spaces with a crowd of people during a pandemic. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I often find myself craving it. Some of the happiest most memorable times of my life have been when I was in complete isolation. At sea for example...just me, the boat and barely another sign of humanity within sight for days. Distant lights on the horizon at best.

The funny part was when the crazy leftists started throwing paddleboarders in cuffs for the crime of being alone on the beach. Definitely overkill. That and erecting fences so those dirty Christians don't spread covid. Blm rallies are fine tho. Edited March 23, 2022 by West Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Social isolation and loneliness are as harmful to your health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day and are twice as harmful to physical and mental health as obesity. Loneliness is linked to adverse health consequences such as depression, sleep disturbances, cognitive decline and impaired immunity. As mentioned, social isolation is a major risk factor for suicide. The feeling of not belonging or not feeling connected to other people can be detrimentally powerful.

Moonbox Posted March 23, 2022 Report Share Posted March 23, 2022 Nobody is arguing that isolation is healthy. That's why solitary confinement is such a problem in prisons. The argument is that you're not socially isolated just because you can't crowd together in pews with a hundred other people during a pandemic. How did all of these other worshippers in Canada survive? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have little doubt there are people who suffered psychologically but I doubt it's as universal or devastating as advertised. I'm willing to bet most people and especially kids who suffered had parents or lived with people who were ideologically freaked out over COVID. Kids need to see maturity in action to properly emulate it. Edited March 23, 2022 by eyeball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoom doesn't give you the social aspect of attending church. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
