CNN Host Victor Blackwell on Sunday grilled a Louisiana pastor over his decision to host massive in-person church services during the coronavirus pandemic, despite guidance from public health officials and a stay-at-home order from the governor. Tony Spell — the pastor of the evangelical Life Tabernacle Church in Central, outside of Baton Rouge, which is one of the cities hardest hit by the virus — was charged last week with refusing to abide by Democratic Gov. John Bel Edwards’ order that temporarily limits gatherings to 10 people. Roughly 1,800 people attended last week’s services, Spell said during a Sunday appearance on CNN’s “New Day Weekend.” Following his interview, hundreds of worshippers gathered at the church once again, Reuters reported. “We believe the science of this,” Spell told Blackwell. “However, we do have a command from God and there are no governing bodies that can tell us we cannot gather and worship freely.” Blackwell asked Spell whether he believes the science that shows people who gather in large groups are at greater risk of contracting the virus. “Yes, we believe the science,” Spell said, noting that many people who contract the virus “don’t even know they have it” and often recover from it. “People have been locked up in their homes for 22 days now. ... And the hope is the last stronghold in those people’s lives.” Blackwell continued to press him. “If you believe the science ― and I assume you are pro-life, is that correct?” Blackwell asked Spell, using the term adopted by many people who oppose reproductive rights. Spell confirmed that he is. “How is this a pro-life stance to put people in jeopardy of contracting a disease, getting a virus that has no treatment, no cure, often has no symptoms and has killed more than [8,500 people in the U.S.] in five weeks?” Blackwell continued. Spell responded that “people’s hope is in the House of God.” “If they do contract the virus, if they have fears of the virus, the church is more essential now than ever,” Spell said. “There is a physician in Jesus Christ.” “We were supposed to be at a million-and-a-half body bags,” he added. “We’re at 8,400. So the narrative is false.” As of Sunday afternoon, there were more than 331,000 confirmed cases of COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus, across the country. More than 9,400 people have died. Louisiana has become one of the hot spots in recent weeks, with more than 13,000 confirmed cases and at least 477 deaths. Late last month, President Donald Trump proposed easing social distancing measures and encouraging economic activity by Easter, which is April 12. But public health experts on the White House’s coronavirus task force convinced him to extend the restrictions, warning that millions of people could die if he didn’t.

What you are seeing being played out right in plain view is - Good VS Evil and preventing all types of worship proves it beyond any doubt. The Virus is nothing but a tool for what is to come
Most pro-life people do not oppose the right to reproduce. They oppose the "right" to kill the unborn offspring of reproduction.
Ada's hot link trumps all. CDC Tells Hospitals To List COVID as Cause of Death Even if You're Just Assuming or It Only Contributed www.scoopyweb.com/2020/04/cdc-tells-hospitals-to-list- covid- as.html I trust we can trust an article like this in an obscure site called scoopyweb? I guess it's just a fun facts site but the article has the ring of truth about it despite naming no news sources. It certainly sounds like how the fedgov acts. _____________________________________________________________ USA! USA! USA!

+100 CNN truly is "Fake News." Can you or anybody here remember the last time CNN (or MSNBC) reported a story without any advancing a Leftist/Upside-Down agenda or built-in anti-Christian/conservative/Trump bias? I can't. You know it. EXACTAMUNDO. and preventing all types of worship proves it beyond any doubt. The Virus is nothing but a tool for what is to come Last Days/End Days as prophesied. Our world is inverted, upside down. Came rather suddenly, didn't it? Btw, are you into Bible prophecy? Well stated. Truth BUMP. CDC Tells Hospitals To List COVID as Cause of Death Even if You're Just Assuming or It Only Contributed www.scoopyweb.com/2020/04/cdc-tells-hospitals-to-list- covid- as.html Isn't THAT interesting. Ruh-Roe... But...but....that's a "conspiracy"! We need to listen to Fauci, CNN, our Dear Leaders and...and...Bill Gates! His "vaccines" are gonna save us!! I trust we can trust an article like this in an obscure site called scoopyweb? I guess it's just a fun facts site but the article has the ring of truth about it despite naming no news sources. Any source that blends partial truth with partial lies is THE definitive effective propaganda. Right. Honestly I guess this is nothing but a 'poisoning the well" thing -- it goes on constantly.

I'd like to believe him right off the bat, but who is Jerry Day, and why doesn't he say? He says to look for his source article in the show notes, but I don't see it. The next question is how reliable is his source, globalresearch.ca? I think it's entirely so and have never heard them accused of fraud, but spose its sources need to be fully checked out in each article. That's certainly an impressive right margin full of links at SOTN. _____________________________________________________________ USA! USA! USA!

Global Research is not a favorite of the lefties.
