Opus 2020-156: On the Street: Virtuous Panic

I had an insight into why certain professions are so concerned about wearing a mask.  With the current state of panic and government manipulation a doctor who contacts the virus will be driven out of his profession.  It doesn’t matter if he has symptoms.  It doesn’t matter that he is not really dangerous to anyone else.  He will be sent home.  He will be a victim of the panic as much as an innocent bystander overrun by a riot. 

When I come up to a store that virtue signals me to be concerned for others when there is no dange,r I will turn and shop somewhere else as long as I can.  For my doctors and dentist I guess I can wear a face covering, even if I don’t think it makes any difference.

Isn’t that big of me?

I am so tired of the spirit of fear.

  1. I never thought about this before, but in the secular life, the devil often owns the fearful and the overly bold (not that he doesn't also own a lot of folks in between).

    1. You might apply that to the church also.
