[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here’s what you really need to ask for - prioritizing schools means that other things must come behind schools. - restaurants, churches, gyms, etc. Tell them that those other things must be closed and it’s the schools must be open. The Supreme Court already made that not a possibility by their ruling on churches.

And we still are doing terribly with vaccines, especially in this area. Arlington still can’t figure out how to get vaccines for the 1b/c population; they’re still trying to get the 75+. I’m not sending my unvaccinated teenager back to block scheduled, non-cohorted schools to bring home covid to his non vaccinated older parents with health issues. I’m thrilled that the teachers are vaccinated, but we still have terrible measures to stop community spread, so just crying “think of the children” is silly. [/quote]

Restaurants, malls and gyms are not firat amwnsment rights.

Churches are.

Keep schools and churches open.[/quote]

No first amendment right is being violated. An order banning all gatherings over a certain size does not rule that you cannot be a Catholic or Jewish or Muslim or Hindu. It does not establish that one religion is preferred to others. It does not prevent you from prayer. It just prevents you from infecting and killing your neighbor, which is what all of those religions claim to be in favor of. Jesus had a thing or two to say about public prayer, and it wasn’t good. But they pandered to the religious right and the science deniers, so your kid has to stay at home.[/quote]

I just read a great book called Pagan Christianity. To nutshell it, the modern-day church is so far removed from the practices of the 1st century Christian that it might more closely resemble Pagan practices. How does this relate to the current pandemic?? Churches are fine to be closed, as true Christians can practice their faith in accordance with how it was originally meant to be practiced. If you insist on gathering on a Sunday, you are maybe more closely attached to Pagan worship practices. [/quote]
