Monkey pox is spreading here is an article.

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout 🙏 OK

@Carazaa Yes I go to the US fairly often (less often now since covid) and I have never felt in danger. Well except the one time I was an exchange officer visiting a USAF base. I was used to going to a CAF base as an officer where I would show my military ID to the old guard at the guard house. He would wave me through and I was free to drive about the base. I went to the USAF base and was met by a tough looking man in uniform and noticed I had several rifles aimed at me while the guy in the uniform checked and rechecked my authorization to be there. I noticed where ever I went there were armed sentries watching everyone entering and leaving the buildings. Yes it was a nuclear armed base and yes on the tarmac sat a bunch of nuclear armed bombers. I went to the officer's mess one night and was chatting with a few of the pilots for the B52s. It was a bit chilling. If the president gave the order they were heading for Russia in a few minutes. Their aircraft already had the nuclear bombs on board. Fortunately I discovered my great grandfather's pacifist Christianity shortly after I resigned my commission. Unlike my Great Grandfather I didn't need guns to hunt or protect the livestock from predators so I gave up all my guns. That completely aside I do not trust the state to protect me or my children or grandchildren. I have simply seen too many times where the state has been the instigator of evil deeds. Covid being just the latest example of government evil causing mass deaths all over the world. Sadly we do live in a fallen world and we are to be as innocent as doves and as wise as serpents. Casting our hopes on mankind is doomed to failure. BTW Great Grandpa was a preacher and farmer. He built a sod church for people to worship together. It became a multi denominational facility shared by the Baptists, Mennonites, Methodists and Anglicans. Eventually there were enough Catholics to build a separate building.

Yes we live in a fallen world but God promises to protect those who take refuge in him. He is our shield and protector. No harm will come to us. None!. He says "My own will [i]never[/i] beg for bread"

@Carazaa Absolutely. The children of the king are not seen begging for bread.

@Darksideinthenight2 We don't have to worry is we love God.
