'DEFUND THE SCIENTISTS!"

             
           

               For the longest time....decades.....we would observe what was happening in the Democrat Party....and wonder how they could think along the lines that they did....(am I not correct here)....at times just shaking our heads....for in so much of it there didn't seem to be any common sense. We called them....low-information voters....because they really didn't want to tax their minds to read....or to search for solutions....as they only wanted to sit back and listen to Hillary or Bernie or someone to tell them what to think. It was frustrating....wanting to dialog with them....and having them just repeat mantras and talking points. Well guess what? We became what they were! And on the Covid issue....they are the ones that are trying to think things through....while we are the low-information voters!
               
I knew almost nothing about viruses prior to this pandemic....but like many other people I've been reading....and listening to the national debate....and on the one side I'll see laid out before me....the extreme difficulty of....and progress made....on research in communicable diseases. It's intellectually humbling to observe....and I come out of it thankful for God enabling these scientists in their work.....which is no different than in being thankful to God for enabling medical doctors to treat our illnesses.
               Folks....we know....do we not...how police departments have become the enemy in many of our cities....and we can hardly believe that this is happening....but out here in our part of the country....it's every bit as absurd...as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention....and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases are the new enemy. The other side screams....'defund the police!'....while it's as if we are screaming....'defund the scientists!'
