Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Okay folks, I'm no apologist for Catholicism, and in fact was raised in a Protestant offshoot that believed the Pope was akin to the anti-Christ. That said, as a nonbeliever I am less interested in taking casual and all-too-easy pot shots than I am in analyzing the steps / actions taken to limit the effect of the virus. If, as I've previously commented, one considers these groups as 'social clubs' like the Lyons, Kiwanis or Rotary, but on a somewhat larger scale, the same considerations apply, when dealing with an epidemic. Appropriate steps are appropriate steps, period.

Now's the time to picket churches with signs that say, "Where's your messiah now?"
Stupid fuckers.
(All I can hear is Edward G. Robinson's voice saying that.)

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....your twisted...I admire the HELL out of that.
In my bad old days I volunteered for a local church. We told the priest we were out of 'holy water' so he said to bring him the official pitcher. He filled it with tap water and did some mumbo jumbo over it and presto holy water.

Good. So holy water isn't that holy, is it?

They'll probably start 'blessing' sani-wipes and sell them three for a buck.

Duh! Don't you know holy water only works against vampires and demons. I expect a demon outbreak any day now.

Look for it to start in D.C.
@phoenixone1 we already have one sitting in the W.H..
This is absolutely hilarious. The irony is palpable. Who’s praying for you now. 
I’m probably going to hell for this but the virus can’t live in heat; I think

LMAO!!
It's just an unfounded rumor that the COVID-19 virus cannot survive the heat of summer. COVID-19 is unlike any virus we've seen to date.
Flu cases may decrease during the summer when people get outdoors. But flu illness rares up even stronger in the fall.
Hopefully it will hate the SE
@LiterateHiker
It has just been reported today that heat does help with virus. Also if you have a dry cough and a runny nose you do not have the virus. I had to laugh when I read that advice from some medical professional. So I’m thinking lots of hot baths...maybe even with a special friend. 
we have to try to find the bright side of this.
Seems logical to do so...not that logic is usually their strongest reason for doing something!

Don't they know that blessing the water removes all of the sickness demons? Even if they wipe asses the old fashioned way followed by rinsing fingers, the gods have them covered. Where is their faith?? Jesus saves; especially on toilet paper! Glory!!

this reminds me of the three young women who went to confession. You've probably heard it. The first one is told to wash your hands in the holy water, and the second one is told to gargle with it. Meanwhile, without being told, the third one sits in

Yes, that's an old one, although I must confess when I heard it, the 1st girl, based on her confession, was told to wash her hands in holy water, while the 2nd was directed to wash her breasts. As the two were busy washing, the 3rd showed up saying, 'move over girls, I have to gargle.' At least that is what I remember from decades past.
@p-nullifidian that's how it is with jokes.
I'm not so familiar with the Catholic faith, does that mean absolution is fucking totally out of the question?

The standard reply to that would of course be..."IT'S ALL PART OF GODS PLAN".
