WASHINGTON, D.C. As his first official act in the capacity of overseeing the countrys response to a potential coronavirus update, Vice President High Priest Mike Pence has issued an order to the Centers for Disease Control for a dramatic increase in its capacity to stockpile thoughts and prayers. Pence, who was the governor of Indiana when an HIV outbreak occurred, in part because of his administrations policies toward IV drug use, told the media today that he plans to ask Americans to pray super-duper hard for a quick end to any potential outbreak of the virus that is causing great concern and anxiety across the globe. The CDC announced this week that a coronavirus outbreak in the U.S. is all but inevitable.
At a press conference yesterday, Trump announced that he was putting Pence in charge of the task force that would oversee the nations preparation for, and response to, an outbreak. Arriving to work today, Vice President Pence asked Americans to stay calm but to remember prayer is the only thing that can save us. Pence warned against the temptation to rely on so-called doctors and their so-called medicines and science.
I have asked the CDC to quadruple its ability to safely store our countrys thoughts and prayers because were going to need it, Pence said. In times like these, it might be quite tempting indeed to listen to the words of doctors and other scientists, but I must tell you how dangerous that is. Because all of the alleged knowledge they claim to have came from one place, and it wasnt their textbooks in government indoctrination colleges. Their knowledge comes right from God himself.

(45,806 posts)and a priest. NONE OF THEM TELL YOU TO REPLACE GOOD SCIENCE WITH PRAYERS! They all pray. They pray for the sick, their friends, even their enemies, but there's a place for science, and another place for prayer. These folks who replace one with the other are WRONG!
