(TPT, The Passion Translation)<\/p>\n<p>Pro 14:15 Don&#8217;t be stupid and believe all you hear; be smart and know where you are headed. (CEV, Contemporary English Version)<\/p>\n<p><strong>My Comment:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Bible cautions against gullibility! Don&#8217;t fall for the lies promoted in our contemporary culture. Be patient and investigate before committing to action.<\/p>\n<p>Many things that were condemned as &#8220;conspiracy theory&#8221; have in recent weeks been confirmed to have been &#8220;conspiracy facts.&#8221; Sometimes it is wise to &#8220;follow the money.&#8221; For example, if the law pertaining to monopoly and price-fixing were enforced strictly right now, there would be no national debt crisis in the United States. What once constituted less than 4% of our federal expenditure is now over 30% of the federal budget, and this budget item is growing every year at a far greater rate than inflation. It will, from what I have read, soon constitute an expense greater than is taken in yearly as taxes, which could collapse the whole government. That might be a good thing, seeing as the government itself has become lawless. The budget item I refer to is health care. Do some reading yourself on the subject of Covid and the &#8220;vaccines&#8221; created to alleviate it. It turns out that the &#8220;cure&#8221; is worse than the disease, and could have been avoided without the use of the &#8220;vaccines&#8221; by using medicines already available and in wide use. The notion that face masks would be effective against a virus was proven to be nonsense by many scientific studies over many years in the past. A good analogy would be comparing the effectiveness of a face mask to building a chain link fence to keep mosquitos out of your back yard. Likewise, &#8220;social distancing&#8221; has no verifiable scientific effectiveness in slowing the spread of disease.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cross reference Bible study for Proverbs 14:15 as given in\u00a0<em>The Ultimate Cross Reference Treasury:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Proverbs 14:15<br \/>\n<strong>simple<\/strong>.
