Yes I get that no doubt you and others are more concerned with 4000 dead instead of 9 million dead, that is your reasoning.

I don’t believe you give two cents about other issues in the world only what pops up on your TV screen.

the proof in your words, go make a thread about the hunger, this thread is about a virus.
What 9 million dead would you be referring to please?


What does the title of thread say? And she is defending the concept, so yea she believes it.

the title should have said hope in the Lord period no matter what is happening rather walking through the valley of death or not
I know what the title of this thread says. I don't think you read the OP so as to understand what Kelby actually said. You're going after 11th, and others, because of how they see this, as if they need to have their thoughts meet your approval. You are even upset that Kelby and others didn't state hope should be put in Lord. Which tells me you didn't understand the OP.

Why are you so angry that others have a different perspective concerning this virus? Do you have a flu? Are you afraid? We're all Christian here, you can share and not be judged. :(

I really just think @KelbyofGod was speaking figuratively
...not in a literal sense.

Meaning when can use this virus as an situation to draw closer God.

I really cannot see the issue @JamOn is so upset about ......people have different ways of expressing themselves.
I can understand that and yet people need to think before making thread titles, I would have much liked to see hope in Jesus and not hope in coronavirus, it’s a misleading statement. maybe since all the sporting events are shut down maybe we as people need to think on that as well or maybe the U.S gets a lot of medical supply’s from other countries and that might be why America is short on test kits.

why is the most powerful advance nation on the planet behind on test kits, I’ve read South Korea has a kits for the whole population

9 million are those who starve to death each year around the globe yet it’s not deemed a pandemic and many other things mass amount people die from. yet the corona virus has getten people’s attention out of the blue it’s even made it to bible discussions sorry I don’t see it as a pandemic, just because the news media has it on their front burner agenda, they don’t do it for our good they do it for ratings.

Who said I was angry? because I disagree? now I’m angry, hmm yea.

Who said anything about needing to have their thoughts meet my approval, that’s pure trash

I can agree with that no doubt it’s a news pandemic, media feeds off these issues always has and always will. I see more news on bad things than good things, ratings don’t climb with nice topics.

Yes, you sound angry. This is why. Note the bold in your reply to me and the paste of your prior post to another member.:
"Yes I get that no doubt you and others are more concerned with 4000 dead instead of 9 million dead, that is your reasoning.

The underlined part above is for me the issue that shows you are angry. Or, you're just raging in this thread for the purpose of making no sense. When you say that which is underlined above, particularly the last part, "...this thread is about a virus." , the odd thing is, it was you that introduced the topic of starvation, the hungry, into this thread in your post #31.
O yea, how about the roughly 9.1 million people die each year from starvation, when was the last time that made the news?

No I’m not going to be concern with the current virus. get your head out of the sand and know reality as far as human life is concerned.

Where is the government management on that? there no reason why 9 million have to die each year from starvation.


Two more points. First, what have you contributed so as to help the starving in your area? Or the world?
Secondly, it would be your responsibility to start a thread about hunger, since you brought that topic into this thread when you started talking about all the other troubles in the world including that, and way back in the early pages of this thread.

What is a pandemic?

24 February 2010

A pandemic is the worldwide spread of a new disease.

An influenza pandemic occurs when a new influenza virus emerges and spreads around the world, and most people do not have immunity. Viruses that have caused past pandemics typically originated from animal influenza viruses.

Some aspects of influenza pandemics can appear similar to seasonal influenza while other characteristics may be quite different. For example, both seasonal and pandemic influenza can cause infections in all age groups, and most cases will result in self-limited illness in which the person recovers fully without treatment. However, typical seasonal influenza causes most of its deaths among the elderly while other severe cases occur most commonly in people with a variety of medical conditions.

By contrast, this H1N1 pandemic caused most of its severe or fatal disease in younger people, both those with chronic conditions as well as healthy persons, and caused many more cases of viral pneumonia than is normally seen with seasonal influenza.

For both seasonal and pandemic influenza, the total number of people who get severely ill can vary. However, the impact or severity tends to be higher in pandemics in part because of the much larger number of people in the population who lack pre-existing immunity to the new virus. When a large portion of the population is infected, even if the proportion of those infected that go on to develop severe disease is small, the total number of severe cases can be quite large.

For both seasonal and pandemic influenza, the highest levels of activity would be expected to occur in the usual influenza season period for an area. (In the temperate climate zones, this is usually the winter months, for example). But as was seen with the current H1N1 pandemic, pandemics can have unusual epidemiological patterns and large outbreaks can occur in the summer months.

Then I shall know because you have promised you shall boast about what you do.
And you're mistaken. We can read your emotions by what you type and leave to be read when there is a five minute edit window available should you have misspoke.
Your ranting is all over the place and then when your condition is pointed out to you, you laugh.

I am saddened that I was correct. You are unwell. You have my deepest sympathies and prayers.

I like that, just goes to show how much the world is controlled by others.

human trafficking, starving people all around the world in every country on the planet these are happening in every country yet it’s a diseases that are considered pandemics.

I do understand what you are saying... it does not lessen the fact that this could be like another Spanish Flu and that this also part of the same agenda.

It is going to run it’s coarse just like Spanish flu president Wilson might have been able to prolong it and that’s a pure guess from entering the U.S. but it was going to happen no matter what anybody did like today, so live your life if it does it does, there is no sense making threads about it, God should be on everyone’s front burner regardless. many things can draw people to God and most who are on here are already drawn to God.

Human trafficking and starvation are not communicable deceases.
However bad they may be it would be incorrect to designate them as pandemic.

I think we should think about others and by being diligent we do not infect someone who is vulnerable and can become very ill.

I think we can mitigate the damage by prudent measures ...Japan being a prime example of quick action and strong infra structure.

While perhaps too much media coverage and hype we should not throw up hands either.....that is not acting responsibly.

As the world sees it of coarse, it’s a disease of a different type, probably because these meanings of words are mostly from people who don’t believe in a God. So yes naturally people would agree with it being incorrect if they follow a worldly view of meanings

Maybe so maybe we should ask to have it placed upon us Christians and spare the venerable. I’m willing to take it on if it saves another bring it why not there’s nothing wrong with that is there?
