The Spanish flu killed 16 million people. The Black Death killed between 75 and 200 million people. Put things into perspective. This Corona shyt is horrible, but the beginning of the end, it's not.
lol people have literally been saying its the beginning of the end for 2,000 years. A lot of the early Christians believed the end of the world would happen within their lifetime.
And of course, for hundreds of years, every time something bad happens, the believers of that era make themselves the center of attention and claim it's evidence of it being the end of the world, for real for real, this time.
For an illiterate peasant that had no frame of reference or concept of disease that spreads from fleas on rats, I can see why they would think it was the end during the black death, when everyone around them was mysteriously falling ill and dying
But people nowadays have access to biology books, history books, and scientific literature. I just shake my head at them behaving like those same illiterate medievil peasants.

Most of the population in China don't believe in a higher power. And that's from birth. Now, one reason is because the Chinese government suppresses peoples right to practice religion, but the same thing can be applied to people around the world for whatever they believe or don't believe in.
can you expound on that last part?

god aint real man up p*ssy
Everything is happening and not happening at the same time
humans arent special ... nothing you dream or think of matters.
Some people's greatest successes are obtainable to anyone
There is no plan for anything, it all reacts exactly how it should
None of this shyt is special or matters, God isnt on the moon governing it.
God doesnt go underground and micromanage the mantle of the Earth
Anything can be heaven or hell depending on your circumstance
I dont tell people not to be religious or have faith... but pressuring santa claus shyt onto everyone is extremely autistic
I am guaranteed to die soon, god doesnt control that. It's what's supposed to happen. Using your head gets you further than
hoping and praying... reading books and trying to predict vague statements on "whats to come" I could go in a place right now and push a button and kill everyone
that has nothing to do with "prophecy" or sign of the times
people can get sick like now, that isnt god making people pay... its what's always happening across the whole universe.
If you go too far left, you are bound to get right and vice versa. If you give birth to 8 children you are bound to see alot of death. Every reaction has an equal and opposite reaction... you have to understand and deal with that. The healthier people are, the stronger the virus. The weaker the virus' the lower we become immune...everything works off of itself.

Some real shyt. I think its crazy how folks believe in aliens, a higher power, god, evolution, science, pizzagate and etc but dont believe in themselves. Many people will say they believe in themselves until they are put in a situation where they are tested. If you believe in everyone and everything but yourself, then you need to reevaluate your life for real. It all starts with you.
I had to mention that because theres so many people that dont believe in themselves and are looking for everyone and everything to save them or do what they are supposed to do. You are free to believe what you want to believe but you better make sure yourself is one of them.

Don't be so confident. I mean, corona ain't done yet ijs.
Are you familiar with Revelations predicting the invention of the internet and social media? Are you familiar with the map of negroland? The 400 year prophecy? Do you know how much weight that carries in support of this being the beginning of the end?
These are open and shut examples. Negroland in particular PROVES the existence of the Abrahamic God.

Many of the Christian and Muslim nations that you see, were not originally that. Through slavery, conquest, rape, and pillage the victors were able to spread their religion to people. It's not really much to expound on. The Crusades pretty much details it all.

It's not done yet. It hasn't even peaked. But the estimated death count for the Coronavirus is 400k. Absolutely horrible and I'm trying my best to not get it. But there are 7 billion people on this earth.
Could Coronavirus Cause as Many Deaths as Cancer in the U.S.? Putting Estimates in Context
Edit: This is in the US.
I know that it’s useless to say this to you, but sometimes God will use the death, tragedies, and sufferings of our loved ones to work on us. Everything he does is with reason, one that is always greater than what the human mind can comprehend.
He’s always at work. It’s extremely sad and I feel for the parents, to lose a child. The 4 year old is in a much much better place than the one we’re in now.
Neither this man nor his parents sinned, said Jesus, ‘but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him, John 9:3
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose, Romans 8:28
Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope, Romans 5:3-4
I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us, Romans 8:18

Pretty simple, I don’t really believe in a Christian god or Muslim god but I’m not against the thought of some higher power guiding life. I’m just not serious enough to really pursue some faith because I just don’t care enough. I don’t think there some heaven or hell waiting for me or even 72 virgins when I die. When you die I think you just cease to exist. But with that said I ain’t on some atheist tip thinking a magic Kai bomb exploded and created the universe
sound like some shyt a crack head would say.what I’m saying is I just don’t know and I really don’t think hard about this shyt bruh. I just live in the here and now. And I feel like a lot of people view life through my lens. Just taking it one step at a time chugging along and not thinking of all this extra shyt.
Because we know how viruses work. This phenomenon no longer requires the supernatural for an explanation.
