“They are banning Christians from singing in small close groups.”

They are banning ANYONE from singing in small close groups; see my previous post on this thread.

Do you, for one second, believe that they are concerned about our health?!! Not a chance.

[fuzzylogic]

Same with playing instruments?

Please provide a peer reviewed scientific paper that shows how many people get sick by these practices vs. the normal population.

...realize these people are going to extremes on only those with whom they don’t like, using the virus as an excuse.

Today was the first day of Cuomo's E.O. making it mandatory that people wear masks while in public. I already had a mother and father, and Andy Pandy ain't them. I went to my local grocery store, and there were plenty of other people who didn't have masks on either. I was waiting for someone to say something to me about it, but no one did. I had already practiced what I'd say to them if they did:

"Get outta' my face...you're invading my space."

As anti-Constitutional as anything could possibly be. Just say, “I do not consent”

[Rebelbase]

Won’t apply to the gay save-the-world remote telethon that will no doubt happen sometime soon.

Not according to Justice Scalia - see post #17.

“They aren’t banning Christians from singing. They are banning Christians from singling in small close groups”

Right. But this seems even broader than an attack on Christians per se. These rules would seem to apply to rock or any type of ensemble getting together to stream music.

These people have truly jumped the sharnado.

Anything to get rid of Christianity in the West.

The better to usher in the global New World Religion. Things are moving quickly now.

It is time for a mass uprising. And widespread civil disobedience

A USSC Justice cannot “create a law”.

A USSC Justice cannot “create a law”.

I think it was a bad ruling - but let's not forget who handed it down, nor why.

[absalom01]

Obviously unconstitutional. Just ignore them.

[Reno89519]

No constitutional rights in California?! /s

“These rules would seem to apply to rock or any type of ensemble getting together to stream music.”

They do - see post #17.

Talking spews a ton of particles into the air. Singing probably spews many many tons of particles into the air.

Then just STFU with your nonsense, because the fact is, those particles that you are crying about do NOT travel over the internet!

California county's order criticized for limiting online worship: 'No singing'

California County Bans Singing in Churches During Livestream Services

Mendocino County issued the ban on Good Friday—just in time for Easter—and declared that there was to be no singing in churches for livestream videos and “wind instruments” are banned, too, because they could spread the coronavirus through projected droplets.

And the drummer who is completely surrounded by plexiglas? He can't sing?

[Persevero]

How about:

“I don’t have to wear a mask because I identify as a cucumber.”

Or:

“I have a panic disorder and don’t have to wear one.”

Or:

“I don’t have to wear a mask because I am in a virtual press conference.”

Or:

“I am forbidden to wear a mask because I am a felon on parole.”
