I agree with you completely but no matter what you feel about Arnie, he was absolutely correct.

Airborn droplets ate not the only vector for transmission. The virus will survive for a time on surfaces and can be picked up by contact and enter the body through mouth, nose and eyes --- hence the advice to sanitize hands frequently. There are other factors at work here as well ---...

What you call "social pressure" is merely common sense. As a Canadian I find it odd that so many Americans value their sense of freedom and independence over the health of others, indeed over their own health.

Thank you Lucien. I would rewrite the Constitution of Canada to drop the monarchy.

We share the longest undefended border in the world and what happens in the USA deeply affects Canadians as well as Americans. The late Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau said it well "Canada sharing a continent with the USA is a little like a mouse going to bed with an elephant. No matter how well...

*puts tongue in cheek* Now that I think more on this, we could accomplish the same thing by simply dismantling the Republican Party. *takes tongue out of cheek*

I have several suggestions. Take your pick: 1. eliminate the electoral college because it is undemocratic in nature and smaller states are already powerful the senate. 2. limit both congressmen and senators to two terms. Politicians and diapers should be changed frequently and for the same...

I regard the first four words in Genesis to be the most accurate in the entire book ---- "In the beginning God... "

I am a progressive Christian.

At this time in history it is hard to get my head around any Christian church or denomination rejecting the theory of evolution. Evolution is not a theory in crisis. It is not teetering on the verge of collapse. It has not failed as a scientific explanation. There is evidence for evolution, gobs...

Okay, We Give Up --- We Feel So Ashamed by The Editors (Of Scientific American) March 2005 There's no easy way to admit this. For years, helpful letter writers told us to stick to science. They pointed out that science and politics don't mix. They said we should be more balanced in our...

Some of us Christians are inordinately fond of boasting of the prophetic accuracy of the Bible. In order to have a verified example of prophecy fulfillment, here are the criteria that must be adhered to: (1) The prophesy must be clearly issued as a prophesy and unequivocally describe the event...

The Mennonite community in this area has a pastor (from Texas) who is in total opposition to any sort of masking/social distancing as applied to churches. The town is a hot spot for COVID. We now avoid it. Enough said.

Hello Hope --- I am a retired scientist. My field was nuclear physics. I have also been a Christian for 77 years. A great many Christians, myself included, regard Genesis and some other parts of the Bible to be non-literal documents that should not be regarded as historical but rather be read...

And Canada is a Constitutional Monarchy. Both also happen to be democracies.

"orangemanbad" is a very hard lesson that should never be forgot in the political life of the USA. It points out just how fragile democracy is in the USA --- not when the threat is from the outside but when it comes from the inside. That threat is still a real and present reality.

I was a teacher of high school math and physics for 40 years. This is what happens when well intentioned amateurs with a social and/or political agenda take over important positions . I am reminded here of Trump's Education Secretary Betsy De Vos.

It sure as heck does for me. I am just a few months younger than Biden and I cannot tolerate a face mask more than about 20 minutes tops or I will start to gag. I also have balance issues --- I have to be damn careful on steep stairs especially going down. None of that has the slightest thing to...
