Has anyone had any luck going into stores wearing a "breathable mask?"

What you believe is true? There are sincere people that are being deceived. People have tendency to believe the experts. And these experts and scientists most do not believe in God. The science is false of the world, it is corrupted and sincerely christian doctors and nurses are deceived. While you get doctors that speaks out against the lie. God's truth will always truimphant even if there is just a small minority that upholds God's law of life. The reason many cannot see its lie because of their ignorance when it comes to the law of life that governs the whole universe. But the world will soon enough be lighten by the pure gospel.

Perhaps you can be specific on what part is a lie ...since in my experience the electron microscope does not lie or intentially deceive?

eh,
you apparently are 'living' in another place/space -
our heart goes out to you, and our prayers...

Wearing masks is to protect others from you, not protect yourself from others.

Why do you think, before this covid-19 episode, in countries like Japan, people often wear the same masks when they may have the flu?

many of the masks say on the box they are packaged in that they do not protect against covid.

There is no 100% protection of course.

Its all about probabilities. Do you wish people with covid-19 have a lower chance of spreading it to you?

They work much better after you have sneezed in them a few times.

No.. not they you describe it. Ever try " Neck Gaiter" You can pull it up and do it again so its 3 layers. Easy to breath through.

i have little concern about getting covid.

first , i work outside a lot, i live in the southern u.s. so i get lots of natural vitamin d.

second, i take extra zinc, with is anti-viral.

i take garlic extract, and lots of other immune system boosters.

fourth, in order to get covid, you have to have extended contact with someone who has it.

so, since these facts are facts, i have little concern of contracting covid.

Romans 14:14 I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

15 But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.

As I have stated, wearing mask is to protect others from you, not you from others.

You may have little concern of contracting it, but your brothers and sisters around you may not share the same concerns.

well, since asymptomatic people do not spread the virus very well, and i do wear a mask, i have little concern about spreading the virus.

besides, if people do not care about doing things to boost their immune systems , then that is their problem, not mine.

There is a law of life that governs existence, but the law of life is subject, and falls under God's will. The Lord God has plainly and openly declared what will and what will not be, and it has been, and is, plainly revealing the truth in his word of truth.
I think it comes down to the fact that he declared he would blind eyes, deafin ears, and let their heart's be hardened.
The truth in the Gospel has gotten so twisted, that there's no good news within.

There are things which are so fundamental that you won't find it in literature and textbooks, and why people cannot find is because we don't to go to the root of the problem. And in medicine, it is common that physicians only treat the symptoms of the disease. The solution is for us to treat the cause of the problem. And when you are not going to treat the cause/root, you will always do a half way job. The question, we need to ask ourselves: Where does disease come from? You find physicians look for disease to the body only. They forget that human is made up of spirit and chemistry(earth). And the two together makes a living soul. It could be said, 90 percent of all disease is result of spiritual root. The fundamental law has two aspects: Nothing exist and functions by itself and nothing can do anything for itself. This was the law which governed the universe before satan become discontent with being a created being. Adam and Eve trusted the words of satan and they mistrusted God's word. Now we inherited the error in our heart/subconsciousness. The error leads us to think: I am dependent on the acts and the existence of others to be loved. Something fundamentally changed in our spirit(heart) and we cannot change our nature after the fall. We have this idea that we are gods, and we can created and that we have property. As a created being, we cannot created nor have property. We are stewards of God’s possession. And thus, we think we are gods. This is not an conscious thought that we are aware of and we cannot even see we have this error. But God in His love and mercy brings crisis and conflicts in our relationships that our spiritual eyes could be enlighten, in order that we may destroy the error in our heart and our body will be healthy again. The cause for disease is conflicts, war, force on others, discontentment, depression will lead to disease like cancer, diabetes, inflammation, etc. If we could change our identity to being a created being with the right identity all of the world's problems will be solved.

I could not have said it better. The gospel that is being preached today has no power to transform lives. And God is bringing strong delusions onto the world to prove His servants.

Yes. It was stronger than any biological immune system possible.
It was God's will Adam should live forever, and what could be better?

I wear the paper ones under my chin.
Once in a while they tell me something.
The masks do nothing

Thanks for your insights and your example of what you've tried and learned from it! God wants us all to understand things like this and to not just blindly believe the media or the doctors or anyone else! The way to avoid doing that is to trust God and His Word above all else, and to have a close walk with Him in daily life!

As for myself, I never get viruses or flu - haven't for over 13 years! Some people I tell this too seem to think I just got lucky. But I think it's due to things I do to help prevent them from happening. I wash dishes in saltwater - though using an electric dishwasher also works well for killing germs as it uses hot water. I can't afford a dishwasher plus don't have space for it. I spray my dishrack with vinegar/water solution every time I do dishes or at least once per day.
