    that is 100% false.

    they are allowed to remain open, if they want to.

    but they must limit how many people can come in.

    "In addition, any drive-in or remote religious service may continue in excess of the ten person limit so long as there is no in-person contact between participants. Faith leaders should continue to consider and use alternative forms of worship, replacing in-person gatherings with virtual services, such as phone or conference calls, videoconference calls, or online streaming, wherever possible, and congregations of groups for religious service or ceremony in excess of ten in-person participants remain prohibited."

    as are most establishments for secular gathering.

    hence, no discrimination

    I'm skeptical that shutting down did do any good.

    there is a lot of evidence that shutting down saved many lives.

    just compare Sweden's death rate to Norway and Denmark.

    if there was then it would be easy to present it you've argued with me for an entire day and you presented nothing
    there's more countries in the world than Sweden, Sweden is also an outlier.

    there aren't many countries that took Sweden's approach.

    most nations in regions affected by Covid, shut down.

    Lord Trump, does not have the authority to override a state's governor order to keep houses of worship closed?!! Trump is pandering to the evangelist vote?!! He is getting desperate?!!

    FACT: most nations in Europe shut down.

    this is not up for debate

    I don't think porn shops are open. Did you mean to say liquor stores?

    I never once said that not shutting down saves more lives.

    That is a straw man fallacy.

    I am skeptical that shutting down did save more lives.

    Then don't worry about my skepticism. By not responding to me any further.

    Your skepticism has no evidential basis. You originally stated it as a fact. At least now you acknowledge that it is just your opinion, which is unsupported with anything else.

    then dismiss it I don't care.
    If it's so unsupported why is it causing you all this angst? Just dismiss it.

    I couldn't possibly care any less if you do.

    You cared so much you had to initiate discussion with me.

    The fake Christian was too busy worshipping his golf course at taxpayers' expense.

    Same as all skepticism.

    Lack of evidence.
