It's interesting that a lot of people that didn't vaccinate because God would protect them feel the need to go armed at Kroger.:scratch:

I did get vaccinated. And sometimes I wear both belt and suspenders. I'm also a faithful adherent to "three is two, two is one, one is none." And "everything essential must be redundant." And "never miss an opportunity to take a nap or take a leak." And I always allow at least 30 feet between me and the car in front of me when I stop in traffic.

How about "measure twice, cut once"?

Do you think Christians should own and/or carry firearms?

Only if their job makes it necessary. So that's soldiers, police, security guards, farmers, hunters, pest and vermin control, etc.

Best wishes, Strivax.
