Gov. Andrew Cuomo: More Powerful Than God? "We brought the numbers down. God did not do that, faith did not do that..."
American Thinker ^ | 04/17/2020 | By Bill Zwerger

How else would one interpret his presumptuous proclamation at his latest press conference?

What in hell (no pun intended) would prompt NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo to exclaim, in a most haughty manner, that in regard to "flattening the curve" (man, do I despise that term) "We brought the numbers down. God did not do that, faith did not do that..."? I mean, I realize that he ranks very high (top three by my calculations) on the list of America's most narcissistic public figures, but this is the next level arrogance. 

If you think that this is even too much for even uber tyrant Emperor Andy, and need more proof, take a listen for yourself at the 42:25 mark of his presser posted on Facebook.

Now, I do realize that Cuomo is not the only government authority to downplay/marginalize/outright dismiss the role that religious faith, i.e. Christianity, plays in our society, and seems to almost revel in his ability to temporarily (?) lock down houses of worship. However, to the best of my knowledge, Governor "il Duce" is the only one to (in)directly blame a religious group for his state's COVID-19 outbreak:  “It’s hard. But on the flip side, I say look what happened in New Rochelle. Those were religious gatherings,” the governor said, referring to the number of Wuhan coronavirus infections that occurred as a result of a gathering at a synagogue. “You worship the way you can, but the gatherings are just not a good idea."

As so aptly observed by Jonathon Van Maren at Lifesite News

The terrifying thing is I’m sure he actually believes that.

His dad thought he was several steps above God.

Someone should remind the governor... Pride goeth before a fall.

So true, this nightmare sure has exposed the vampires in government.

God gave you the means to do it, and the wisdom to do it, if you are able to use those things in due humility.

Not King Cuomo, not Benito Cuomo but he turns out to be Pharaoh Cuomo. It should be noted that the Pharaoh has deemed that the peasants shall not have access to hydroxychloroquine.

Cuomo is pretty much an antiChrist individual. He’s the same jerk who said that pro-lifers aren’t welcome in Noo Yawk, because they don’t share Noo Yawk values. Apparently dismembering babies in utero is an essential part of “Noo Yawk values”. I think Satan owns him lock, stock, and barrel.

He is actually going to lose some followers from this. He is dumb among other things.

Has he got a ship somewhere that he can call unsinkable?! Not a wise man is he?

Something like a “We’re more popular than Jesus” moment. That didn’t go very well for the Beatles.

I thought his numbers were up in NY. They look like the worst in the nation.

Fox News seems to think so. He’s on as much as the President.

Cuomo must have watched the movie Ten Commandments too many times and thinks he is Pharaoh “So let it be written so let it be done”. He will have a rude awakening when “his people” start to stand up - remember, even sheep will bite you if you starve them”.

New York's curve is less flattened than the curve of the 1918 pandemic.

New York's government has actually gotten stupider over the past 100 years.

Don’t worry Mr Cuomo, we New Yorkers don’t blame you for not shutting the State down early enough, so we don’t need to be convinced that this lockdown actually did anything to help.... The virus spread through the New York area like wild fire and has done as much damage as it’s gonna do… open up the damn city, now!
