The tight-knit Mennonite community in Gaines County, mostly centered around the town of Seminole, have been hardest hit. Members of this Anabaptist religious order aim to maintain separation from the modern world, in language, school and dress.

Keep on down their stupid anti-science path and they’ll find themselves separated from the living world.

We’ve been doing inoculations since the 1700’s. Dumb *****

When you want to live in the 16th century, you have to live and die with the consequences.

Cholera is about to make a comeback!

Like I said, they reject modern ways of living until death is staring them in the face then all of a sudden it's like "please sir....let me in your hospital and let me get some of those medical interventions!"

It's the ultimate definition of being loyal to a fault.

I try not to judge and I try to see things from many angles but when it comes to my kids there's really only one angle.....what's best for them.

Maybe, but also the potential for a human with natural immunity to the diseases could present. There were studies during COVID where they traced genetics back to find improved resilience associated with long past infections such as the plague.

I want the freedom to accept or refuse a vaccine. Therefore, I have to grant others the choice as well even if I don't agree with their decision.

I think most here understand that but it can get buried under intense emotions if not understood.

I used to agree.

Now I'm not so certain that turning away the lost in time of need is sending the right message. We've enough of that going on and it generally sucks.

Can we make them create a public announcement rejecting the prior stance as incorrect in order to get aid?

I just find their position incredibly hypocritical when citing "God" or religion as their reason for their position for/against medical interventions and it pisses me off that they want to use it at their convenience. Like being able to skirt vaccination policies for school or employment but when the thing the policy was covering affects them, then they demand the medical intervention and put others at risk.

Or when people use religion as their basis for being pro-life because of "God's will" yet when they need some sort of medical intervention for themselves or their children, they are right there at the hospital getting it instead of just letting nature take its course and dying like 'God intended'.

If that's your belief system, then fine. Stand on that ish. Don't just use it when it's convenient or now you're scared that you're about to die. Accept that Jesus said it's your time and go gentle into that good night.
