Gotta beware of ACME brand and obvious name misspellings

Not to mention obvious false endorsements and testimonials.

Hitchens said that these people claim to know the mind of God and that God is always angry at the same things they are. But is He? If the virus is punishment from God how do we know what He is angry about? He might be unhappy about who won the Super Bowl or cuts to food stamps programs or the high deductibles in so many health insurance policies. My guess would be people having loud cell phone conversations in public places.

To be honest, I'd want to be damn sure I've not contracted/ got any chance of contracting the virus before I go ranting about it smiting down the sinners, with much wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Evangelicals are God's punishment to man for not actually listening to anything he said.

If the virus is punishment from God how do we know what He is angry about? He might be unhappy about ... people having loud cell phone conversations in public places.

Meanwhile the US government has been wargaming a worst case virus scenario, which is that Wiles survives.

Well, given the fatality rate for those 80+ is around 14%, 70-79 around 8%, 60-69 around 3.5%, dropping down to well under 1% for those under 50, and at the time those numbers were put together, no deaths under 10, it looks like god isn't as angry with the millennials but rather annoyed with the boomers. GenXer's, of course, are lost in the middle some where, but are getting a warning.
