Why has mask wearing become a contentious religious issue when it’s just common sense?

Like this post I read on social media yesterday:

“Christians who gather without a face mask are obviously placing all their trust and faith in the Lord Jesus...which Satan doesn't want to see take place, hence persecution. The Word of God warns us of this. Are we still willing to be brave enough to not wear them?”

Why is basic public safety a spiritual issue?

This issue fell across the political divide like everything does in America these days. For many people it is common sense, but for some its another shady instance where the government is not being fully transparent, and they don't trust the government, nor the media unfortunately. To be fair, I don't trust the government or media either, but I am pretty pragmatic on the subject of wearing a mask.
