Herd Immunity is God
Perhaps the global pandemic will be considered one of the craziest most irrational times in human history. Fear spread across the globe at the speed of light through mankind’s latest invention, the internet. There were sprinkles of conversation about natural immunity or herd immunity but that is not what happened. Somehow, worldwide, a handful of greedy for-profit pharmaceutical companies dumped a new untested vaccine unto frightened government bureaucrats much to the delight of the fat cats funding the biotech revolution. The story is still being written about the ramifications on humanity of this burp of public consciousness.
Governments flexed their Orwellian muscle enforcing lockdowns and restricting the rights of the citizens to leave their dwelling even to attend church. The internet was censored, scoured and scrubbed so nothing negative could be uttered about their snake oil Covid vaccine. Worse yet, if one said anything negative about the vaccines, they were canceled, labeled as a tin foil hat conspiracy theorist. All the while, the Covid virus spread and killed, since the vaccine never worked and people were inexplicably were suffering from a mountain of adverse reactions.
The root of the Covid debacle is fear. The sad reality of the new post internet capitalism is that fear sells. It is a vicious cycle. The more scared and fearful the public, the easier to drive a panic, and the more money they make.
There was always a solution and that is GOD. God is herd immunity. And herd immunity is God. God designed our bodies to handle viruses, even man made ones. God does not want us to be fearful. God wants us to be strong in body and mind. God has given us all the tools to live a beautiful, happy, non fearful lives. Every generation of humans believe in God less independent of denomination. We are barreling towards a Godless world, that makes us fearful and weak in body, mind and spirit. We are speeding towards human extinction with a car without brakes, seat belts, or airbags.
The pandemic is a tipping point on how little we believe in God. The next time capitalists and governments are sowing their fear through the ubiquitous screens jammed in front of our faces. Shut out the noise, take a breath, and feel God’s presence. Oh yea, and masks don’t work.
Congratulations Rob! We do this Sobriety, one day at a time. I’m very happy for you & your family. I too started in the 70’s in the same town as you! lol ! Fortunately my bottom came in 1988. I celebrated 37yrs in January. Hopefully you can come to our 50th reunion & if you do, I’ll be there to support you. Many blessings to you & your family.
Hi Keith, It is nice to hear from you. When I saw the 50th, I definitely was not going, because I don’t want to be around a bunch of drunk people unless I am one of them. Maybe I’ll try to adjust my thinking. The key to sobriety is to fine something enjoyable and productive to do instead of drinking. For me, I love going to the gym, and cooking a nice meal.
You’re on your way to the rest of your life of serenity! I wish you well. I wish you love.
My husband was sober and a program participant and mentor for 54 years, RIP.
Whether he’s in heaven or became stardust, I believe his influence was and is far reaching as I hope yours will be!
Some time soon I am going to retire, and it is going to be glorious to not have alcohol part of it. I have some friends that have retired, and they actively limit their alcohol in take.
Congratulations Rob!
Thanks Shontelle.
Congratulations Rob, well done. Sobriety is great. I celebrated 31 years this past February.
Hi Joe, I hope you are enjoying your retirement. I am thinking that maybe sometime late this year. I have cut down to 10 hours a week. And of course, I am sober which is more awesome than I ever imagined.
Hi Rob, Yep I am enjoying retirement. I still have the MSP account, but that takes about 10 to 20 hours a month :). I’ve taken up Pickleball and baking Sourdough Bread. Yes, sobriety is awesome.
