I think I got kicked out of the Kansans for Health Freedom facebook group today. Someone was in a panic about the possibility that she would be forced to be vaccinated. I told her not to panic (she claims she wasn’t but the way she worded her statement said otherwise). I also found it rather odd that people just don’t trust in God anymore. When I made that statement she claimed to be a Christian and wasn’t afraid. I told her that if she was worried to go into hiding and read Revelation in the Bible. I presume that is why I was kicked out of a group that I was added to by a friend. Oh well, it isn’t the first group I’ve been banned from and certainly not the last, albeit, I have pretty much avoided too many groups that are not like-minded.

As I stated in my previous post, we are experiencing Natural Selection aka Survival of the Fittest. It won’t be easy and it will be painful for some. But at this point in the game, too many people are still in a panic, worrying about what is going to happen and proving that even though they claim to be Christian, their actions and statements give one the impression that they don’t trust God at all. This is heartbreaking to me as I am an Evangelical, Bible Thumping-Gun toting-American Patriot. I look at this virus thing as the answer to many things for Christians. First, if you get sick and die and are a true Christian, you get to go to Heaven and life in this nutty world will be forgotten and eternity is bliss. Second, if you get the virus and survive, you know that your system was able to get you though. Third, IF you are able to avoid getting the virus all together, then God has blessed you yet again. It is a win-win-win situation.

This win-win-win situation goes for all things in life. There are Christians in other countries that are being murdered because they are Christian. Through their deaths, they become martyrs and they are sent to their reward in Heaven by those who seek to destroy the Truth. But through death, the Truth is spread by people admiring the Christian who stood their ground. If a Christian is beaten and left to live, their testimony spreads the Word of God. By living and trusting in God and that Jesus died for our sins, our testimony is an example to others. Win-win-win.

In the end of times, according to the Bible, chaos, disease, wars and famine will occur. The earth will groan and moan in pain. People will die, people will be murdered yet Christians should not panic nor worry, either way, they win. All this takes is Trust in the Lord. So the question is, are you a believer in Jesus Christ as your personal Savior? If not, it is simple and free to all who believe and accept this free gift. “God so loved the world, that He gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16. Do I truly believe this? Yes I do! I would and should have been dead many times over but when I called up on the Lord for help, He rescued me. One day, my rescue will be much different when I separate from this cage of a body that will eventually die but my soul is an eternal being! I know where I will spend eternity and I anxiously await my turn. For now, I trust that God will protect me from whatever happens.

If you can come up with a Bible, you need to read Matthew, Chapter 6 it is a good place to start. Words of wisdom are there and throughout the whole Bible. Prayer is another good place to start and you can get the best prayer in chapter 6 (The Lord’s Prayer) even if you don’t know what to pray for.

We Christians come in all shape, sizes and levels of belief. Some are weak, some are stronger and wiser. We are not perfect by any means and we may not say all the right things at the right time but through us, God’s Glory will shine through. For now, do not let your heart be worried, trust in the Lord and take those steps to eternal life through the blood of Jesus. I cannot say truthfully that I don’t worry from time to time, that is human nature but I do strive daily to be more like Jesus and even though I can never be completely like Him, the blood He shed for me, covers all my human mistakes.

It is my prayer that you and your family and loved ones stay healthy and call upon the Name of the Lord to protect and guide you through these crazy times.

In the next few weeks we will start to see the natural process of Natural Selection that Mother Nature deals out from time to time. The Plague, Black Death, Bubonic Plague was one of those Natural Selection events that to this day frightens people but once the cause of the plague was discovered (fleas on black rats). Guess what, scientists believe two of the three waves of plague originated in…..CHINA!

The Plague spread by commerce, on ships and trade routes. It also spread by people trying to flee the cities that had the disease. In fact, many Muslim countries were decimated by the plague back then. It all started, it is said by scientists when rats fled areas of climate change. HMMM.

At any rate, that was a bacteria that caused so much havoc, we are dealing with a virus this time and where did it originate? CHINA! Is history repeating itself? Could be. We also have a lot of Muslims invading countries, such as Italy, Germany, France, England and the United States. Seems coincidental, or does it? Makes one wonder.

What I know for fact is, Natural Selection will occur and people will die. Those who aren’t heeding warnings will infect others who are trying to keep their distance. I’ve heard that a couple of people in Kansas who tested positive are still running around, going to pharmacies, grocery stores and Lord knows where else, exposing unsuspecting people. The question is, how do we keep people from doing this? Should they be held responsible? The answer to the second question is yes but to the first question, there needs to be some type of incentive to stay home, perhaps fear of prison for exposing people to a potentially deadly disease. Right now I can see a scenario evolving of people turning against each other, similar to the Hunger Games.

People are already fighting for basic necessities in the grocery stores, and fears of food shortages are becoming real as people stock up on food. Now those known as preppers don’t seem so crazy. There has been a run on gun shops, people buying guns and ammunition in bulk. Before long you might see killings on the street as infected people walking around like zombies send those who aren’t sick into a panic and the news media would love for this to happen on President Trump’s watch.

In my neck of the woods, I know there will be sick people, that is a given. I will practice my usual social distancing as I am generally out of the population as I live on the farm. My odds are lower with living in the country and avoiding large population areas. My odds may also be lower as I am exposed to so much more bacteria and viruses through the livestock, so my immune system is stronger than the average city slicker. I could still get it, but as I said, my odds are lower for infection, even if my elderly mother has higher odds.

The only thing to do is wait this mess out. Nature selects the weak and I hate to see some of the elderly and very young suffer but it is the idiots running around who suspect they have it and not getting tested and those who know they have it but are still running around that will cause the death of some. But, like the Hunger Games, you never know who will come out ahead. You can only pray and with that, I trust only in God and in Him, I find comfort from the craziness. All you who are in a panic, all I can say is what Effie said in the Hunger Games; “May the odds ever be in your favor.”

The definition of resilience is: 1: the capability of a strained body to recover its size and shape after deformation caused especially by compressive stress 2: an ability to recover from or adjust easily to misfortune or change.

The world seems to have forgotten the resilience of the American people. WE THE PEOPLE have the ability to recover from anything our country has had to deal with, including wars and attacks that we have over come in the past. During WWII the people came together to build the largest war equipment building machine int he world. Women went to work, building the Atomic bomb (My grandmother was a crane operator for the Manhattan project), they filled in at jobs that men usually did, so the men could go to war. When the world needed our help, we have been there for them. Sadly, during times we needed help, few fell in to help, like Israel. Still, the American people are resilient and are creative enough and efficient enough to come up with ways to over come adversity.

We are seeing a major drop in the stock market, due to news media and doomsdayers who want the economy to fail under President Trump (because all else has failed to ruin him). This coronavirus aka Chinese virus/Wuhan virus has hit harder than impeachment and it is taking a toll. HOWEVER, the resilience of the PEOPLE will over come this mess and in the end, when the numbers of sick dwindles, the markets and economy will be like a light switch and from dark to high beams we will go like nothing we’ve seen before.

Everyone who listens and believes the news media has a negative view of this mess. Those of us who trust in a higher calling, see beyond the mess and are hopeful, much like President Trump. Things aren’t as bad as they could be because of the President’s orders to stop Chinese from coming to our country this past January. So we have had time to react and we are getting things done, properly.

It is time to say, stand up and suck it up folks. This is not the end of the world. Right now the influenza is killing more than corona at this point. Soldiers with PTSD are committing suicide at higher rates (which is a travesty ), people in Chicago have a higher death chance than people in general catching corona. Calm down reach for the resilience and put it on. We will get through this.

I would like to congratulate everyone who whined about free health care for all as we now have free testing for corona virus aka Wuhan flu. Yes, we now have socialized medicine with the free testing and the Left will want more free health care stuff. No thank you! Oh, I also called the COVID-19 virus Corona and Wuhan. That is exactly what it is. We had the Russian flu in the late 70’s, the Swine flu (H1N1) a couple years ago and the Spanish flu was many years ago. The names were designated by where the flu started but OMG!!!!!! You are considered xenophobic and racist if you call it Corona or Wuhan virus. Screw that! I will call it what I want!

I am hoping that my logic is correct and I am immune to this virus as I have been exposed to strains of Corona virus through cattle (who are vaccinated against certain strains of this virus). Many years ago, it was discovered that milk maids who caught cowpox from the dairy cows was immune to chicken pox (cowpox was a lesser of the two viruses). I know I am salmonella and E. Coli resistant as I have been exposed to both many times over the years working in the livestock industry. So, time will tell if I am actually immune, since this virus is suppose to kill us all because it is so dangerous (right now Influenza has killed over 30,000 since October of 2019). Do I jest? Yes and no. I understand the gravity of the situation and I have a mother who is elderly and the virus seems to target elderly and immune compromised people, so I take steps to protect her but we will not alter our daily activities that much. I refuse to be held hostage by a bug and I refuse to believe half the crap the news media is spreading.

I believe that the news media is hyping this all up and are blaming President Trump for acting so slow on this situation. HELLO! Trump has been working on this situation since January 2020 but no one was paying attention as the Democrats were trying to impeach the man back then! Sorry Charlie, your too late once more. You cannot blame Trump especially since the Democrats are throwing a fit about him stopping the influx of people from other countries. Bernie Sanders wants the illegals to keep pouring over the border! President Trump is protecting us all, in spite of what the Democrats want to do. Suck it up suckers!

If you haven’t noticed, I am a little more sarcastic and blunt in this post. I have my reasons. First, as soon as President Trump was elected all the Leftists warned that he would tank the economy and the stock market. It was going to be a big tank job. Well, the stock market soared to record highs! That pissed off the Left. Now the news media and all the hype from the Left has investors nervous and there has been a big sell off( Remember the Democrats never want to waste a crisis without taking advantage of it). I wish I had ten thousand dollars to put into the market right now because when this virus plays out in May or June, the jump up will be amazing, then I could sell high. The Left is blaming Trump for the markets when they are excited that it is dumping. This is their hope so Trump won’t be elected. Sorry again Charlie, he will be.

The second reason I am so blunt is that yesterday, I had a nit wit by the name of Sarah Ginder from Sagamihara, Japan, a Kansas State University graduate, contact me via Messenger to reprimand me about my comments on Wuhan virus. I commented that I suspect that some Chinese students may have brought the virus with them to the USA when they came to college. She was worried I might offend them or come off xenophobic or racist. I replied I didn’t ask for her opinion and let her know I was not going to be lectured. So, I called her out on Facebook and now here. Stupid wench. I didn’t know her but she thought she could correct me (Leftist antifa tactics). Then she called me a Boomer which I corrected her and told her I wasn’t, then she called me an old lady, which she then blocked me before I could reply! How funny is that?!? WHAT A BIG PERSON! She stupidly poked a BULL and didn’t expect to get run over? What a ditsy person! Little does she know I refuse to be politically correct, I call it like it is and as I see it, so get over it! I’ve had enough of these snowflakes and this heat lamp is going to melt them all down. God help us all!

Bottom line. Don’t be stupid and panic. If you have family or friends who are immune compromised, avoid contact or be extra careful. I took Mom to Wichita for a doctor appointment, so when I got home, my good clothes and hers went into the washer, along with our jackets and I sprayed down her car with Lysol (look on the label, it kills coronavirus). We wash our hands before we touch our faces or food and we certainly cover our faces when we sneeze. We also avoid large groups of people because others aren’t as careful as we are. I am not afraid and panicked, I am astute and logical. I also make sure I get plenty of fresh air and vitamin C as well as rest.

In closing, I hope you all are well and enjoy your socialized medicine. I won’t be participating in any of it as I prefer my own way of doctoring, through natural means. This virus will ride itself out in late April, May and early June, as most winter viruses do. I don’t anticipate any problems with the economy after June. I will also be able to enjoy March without the March Madness of basketball. I can’t stand all the hype about that in the first place but we still have March Madness in the form of the virus. One thing I hope happens is that we bring all our drug manufacturing, meat processing and other manufacturing jobs back to the USA because relying on China has proven that it is dangerous to our National Security to outsource important items just because it is cheaper to manufacture elsewhere. Have fun people. I understand there is two to three weeks of quarantines for schools, universities and even that government buildings. Meanwhile, the Educated Cowpuncher is outside working with livestock, getting horse, goat, cow and other manure on my hands, feet and breathing its dust, breathing fresh air and getting dirty with everyday chores all which builds up my immune system.
