    COVID-19. I disagree with my pastors.

    I skimmed, because I trust scholarly peer reviewed journal articles over press releases.

    COVID-19. I disagree with my pastors.

    Well first off, no, it is 0.007 PM. Second, the smallest nCoV19 particle is 0.1 PM...so using your number they are even less effective. And here is my evidence (journal article) stating that anything below a respirator/surgical masks (less so), are basically useless: Effectiveness of Cloth...

    COVID-19. I disagree with my pastors.

    That's a press release, not evidence based research.

    COVID-19. I disagree with my pastors.

    You saying that doesnt make it correct. What is the micron filter rate for a N-95 mask?

    COVID-19. I disagree with my pastors.

    No, I'm talking about an evidence based research journal article from May 2020.

    COVID-19. I disagree with my pastors.

    Excerpt from the CDC article: We conducted a search on November 6, 2018, and identified literature that was available in the databases during 1946–November 5, 2018. We did not identify any published research on the effectiveness of respiratory etiquette in reducing the risk for...

    COVID-19. I disagree with my pastors.

    You always respond with a question? Did you even read my post? What you are saying to people are media talking points without fact. I gave you facts, perhaps do the same?

    COVID-19. I disagree with my pastors.

    Oddly enough I never said that...maybe don't put words in people's mouths? We aren't specifically speaking about those who are symptomatic. If you are actively sick then you should quarantine yourself. If you aren't using a properly fitted and designed respirator masks then, wearing a mask is...

    COVID-19. I disagree with my pastors.

    So many people ripping others about not wearing a mask that have no professional experience and don't work in Healthcare. Don't be deceived into a false sense of security.

    COVID-19. I disagree with my pastors.

    Zero science to back up your position. I work in Healthcare. Masks are nothing more than a public feel good measure.

    COVID-19. I disagree with my pastors.

    Personally I think we should all respect others decisions, in the U.S. we have that freedom of choice. Second, anyone who thinks masks are protective is being deceived. Before anyone gripes at me, I work in the medical field. The best option we have, aside from NBC gear or Bio-Suits which are...

    Masks can help you stop the virus

    I love how everyone has an opinion and pretty much all do not work in the field. I do. A standard surgical mask won't do very much at all in close proximity, and the N-95 variants must be form fitted to work properly.

    Kaepernick denounces 4th of July as ‘celebration of white supremacy’

    Good argument, but the problem is you didn't make one. None of what you stated was fact, only opinion, so your reply to the OP was wrong.

    Kaepernick denounces 4th of July as ‘celebration of white supremacy’

    Kapernick is a fool, as Independence Day had zero to do with so called white supremacy. Any student of history knows that the issues were initially about taxes that were levied against the colonies from Great Britain for the French and Indian War that preceeded the revolution.

    Kaepernick denounces 4th of July as ‘celebration of white supremacy’

    So many inaccuracies here I don't know where to start.

    Lost, alone and crossed with God.

    I know that exact feeling. The hard reality is that we most likely aren't seeing that in our own lives is that we aren't in God's will for our lives. Now, that said, it's much easier said than done, but it is simple. I have days one after the other with that feeling. I simply feel lost in...

    Lost, alone and crossed with God.

    I don't have a solution, but you're not alone in your feeling. I've been begging, pleading, praying, crying and just exhausted for so long, that I'm just done. I can't say God isn't there or isn't omnipresent, because scripture says He is. But I heard a preacher, I think, say it best...I know...

    White couple arrested after gun pulled on black family

    People simply need to grow up and get a thicker skin. You bump into me, so what, who cares? I bump into you, so what, who cares? The argument over this is ridiculous. Depending on the state, laws, and CCDW (if applicable) pulling a weapon could be perfectly legal if you felt threatened. The...

    Who said Chicago was safe?

    Yeah we will here in Chicago. It's kind of ridiculous, but it's been this way for a while. The politicians keep doing the same thing expecting a different result.
