Heads up to Mike Pence and Ben Carson and the folks who think prayer will solve this thing, and whom I assume have been trying it, to no avail, daily: how about we stop relying on magic and go with science and lots of money? Thanks. Your God is pretty obviously napping...
Please note, when I say "your God" is napping I mean that the kind of God these folks believe in -- one who intervenes in our lives if we believe fervently enough, like your own personal Jesus/co-pilot, etc -- is napping. That isn't the only way to conceive of God though
by the logic of that concept of God, prayer can stop C19, so those who die sorta deserve it...not pious enuf. So too billions suffering malnutrition. They aren't as deserving of life as Mabel in Omaha was of finding her lost car keys (for which she prayed and found them!)
this entire "angel on my shoulder" conception of God is offensive to actual theologians and people with any remotely deep understanding of...pretty much anything...plenty of people of faith have a more intellectual conception than that...
