So he we are again in 2021 with another round of lockdowns due to some stray variant and if you believe the narrative it’s the most virulent strane of covid yet. Except in countries like the UK and some other places where covid deaths related to the delta variant have declined and as usual scientist don’t know why. Should we be scared of covid-19 or it’s variants? It’s a catch 22 because we have no way, as individuals ‘ to actually find out except for the scientific community who have just as much for and against information that it’s irrelevant. Say 50 50 chance you could die from covid-19 or it’s variants. Although I would suggest the odds of surviving covid are more in your favore than the official narrative. My reasons for this stem from the corruption within the system, the disappearance of the flue that killed the same amount of people, the admitted lying about numbers of deaths in the early days of the pandemics and the huge economic Gain the drug companies are making over their vaccinations. On top of this perhaps the worst part would be the possibility of compulsory vaccinations with a vaccine that’s still in trials and has been shown to have some pretty severe side effects for certain people and the continued fear and lockdowns and erosion of freedom’s. You wouldn’t realize that you lost those freedom’s untill you resisted the narrative. It’s only then that you begin to see, as many protesters in the UK, Australia and many other countries have found out’ just how much we are loosing. So should we be scared of covid-19 or Delta? Well I think that’s a personal choice and I say this because it confronts out fear of death. Eithe our deaths or those we love. In the west we have managed to hide the death component of life behind a Vail. We don’t want to talk about it or even acknowledye it until we have no choice. But covid has brought our fears into Sharpe focus and with it our fear of dying. My own daughter this week has been having a hard time with the thought of loosing her father after a couple of strokes recently and then the fear of covid to top it all off. As a Christian I can point to an afterlife that promises a better life on the other side as a splattering of other religions also do. But these only satisfy a person who believes in them and this requires faith or at least some Hope. But without these or some other beliefe to dull the fear then what’s left is uncertainty, confusion,anger, frustration and a profound wonder at the futility of life and purposelessness of living if all we and our children have to look forward to after struggling to make a life is to all too soon see it end. knowing that our children will suffer the same fate is even more pointless. To me covid is not the biggest threat we have faced in this world. If you think about how many people died of wars, famins and suicide you have to come to the realization that our biggest enemy is fear and this is the biggest tool being used in our time to justify a collapse of most of what we have come to know and call normal life.
“The growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistorical acts; and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been, is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs.”George Eliot,
