I seem to recall that folks like Pat Robertson were claiming that things like Hurricane Katrina were messages from god punishing us for being nice to gay people, which always seemed like a fairly cryptic way to send that message, considering that the people being punished were sort of randomly chosen.
On the other hand, it would seem this message is fairly straightforward:
This same jackass who threatened to sue Kentucky’s Governor to keep their church services open now has the gall to say he feels “terrible” about the outbreak that has decimated his congregation.
…
The church whose pastor joined Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron in threatening to sue Gov. Andy Beshear in April if the governor didn’t rescind an executive order preventing churches from holding in-person services has had a coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.
Clays Mills Baptist Church, just outside of Nicholasville in Jessamine County, has had 17 parishioners test positive for the virus. The ages of those infected range from children to the elderly, according to the Herald-Leader, the first news outlet to report the story.
The church began in-person services on May 10.
Pastor Jeff Fugate told the newspaper on Friday that he felt “terrible” about the outbreak. “I care more about the health of my people than anyone,” he said.
At least two of the people who have recently tested positive are members of Fugate’s family.
As Randy has the Lord say, “My ways are mysterious, sometimes even to myself”, but this message seems fairly direct. Odds are, though, that Fugate will find someway to blame it on the gays or the liberals.
