Atheists have a reputation for putting their faith in science, not divination.
Now, it’s a fact. A new Pew Research Center survey shows that the godless are more likely to get vaccinated for COVID-19 compared to religious groups — as 90% of atheist respondents said that they will “definitely” or “probably” seek the shot, or have already received their first vaccine dose.
Meanwhile, an average of 77% of Catholics will go in for the jab, and only 62% of Protestant participants — including white or Hispanic evangelicals and worshippers at historically black churches — will do the same.
By contrast, nearly half — 45% — of white evangelicals say they “definitely” or “probably will not” seek the coronavirus vaccine, regardless of the manufacturer. And they appear split down the middle as 54% affirmed that they likely will get the shot.
Insights into how various spiritual communities currently approach vaccination were first reported by Religion News Service, as part of a broader report by Pew researchers to investigate Americans’ intentions regarding COVID-19 vaccination, published Friday. The survey of 10,121 adults was conducted last month, between Feb. 16 and 21.

The results come as religious leaders continue to grapple with how to lead congregations in both faith and health. Last month, the Catholic Archdiocese of New Orleans was split on whether or not to endorse the late-entry Johnson & Johnson vaccine, which some have deemed “morally compromised” due to its development involving cloned stem cells from two fetuses that were aborted in the 1970s and ’80s.

In December, the Vatican OK’d vaccines by Pfizer and Moderna, which conducted tests using the same abortion-derived cells. However, the stem cells are not ultimately required for manufacturing of those vaccines, whereas the J&J’s blueprint relies on those controversial cells.
“It is under the same guidance that the archdiocese must instruct Catholics that the latest vaccine from Janssen/Johnson & Johnson is morally compromised as it uses the abortion-derived cell line in development and production of the vaccine as well as the testing,” the New Orleans Archdiocese concluded in their statement.
Christians of all denominations have now found themselves pitted against others in their fellowship.
According to RNS’s report, white evangelicals are the least likely to “consider the health effects on their community when making decisions to be vaccinated,” with only 48% responding to Pew that they put this into “a lot” of consideration.

“There’s a long history of anti-science within American evangelicalism,” said evangelical historian John Fea of Messiah University, going back to the Scopes Monkey trial of the 1920s, he told RNS, in which evangelicals protested the teaching of Darwin’s theory of evolution in Tennessee public schools.
David French, senior editor — and Presbyterian — at conservative news site the Dispatch, asserted in a Saturday column that “vaccine hesitancy is both an information problem and a spiritual problem.”
“Yes, you can and should flood the zone with more and better information about the safety and effectiveness of the vaccine, but we also need to flood the zone with better and more effective spiritual teaching about loving our neighbors and — critically — about trust, faith, and courage,” he wrote.

His comments follow those from Dr. Francis Collins, director of the National Institutes of Health (that’s Dr. Anthony Fauci’s boss), who appeared Thursday on the popular Christian Broadcasting Network — home of the long-running televangelist talk show “The 700 Club” — to encourage viewers to seek the vaccine.
Collins, a “devout Christian” according to CBN, stressed that the biblical commandment to “love thy neighbor” is an important virtue when considering vaccination.
“This is a ‘love your neighbor’ moment, where we all have a chance to do something not just for ourselves but for everybody around us,” he said.
Responding to recent reports of infighting among religious communities over which vaccine to seek — or whether to seek one at all — Collins said, “I would be reluctant to suggest that anybody just wait until they get the one they like, because that might be waiting awhile, and in the meantime, people can still get sick.”
Nevertheless, CBN viewers were skeptical, according to the more than 1,000 comments made on the network’s Facebook page following . Many cited scripture in their rejection, accusing Collins of “blasphemy,” using “the name of the Lord your God in vain,” as written in the Bible.

Others objected on the basis of “impulsive” and insufficiently researched vaccine development.
“This has never even been tested on animals and humans are the test groups. Good luck!” wrote Sharon Elise, recognized as a “top fan” on the page.
But Collins addressed this fear during the interview.
“The vaccines, which I’ve had a big part in helping get developed, have been tested in the most rigorous imaginable trials, they’ve been shown safe and effective,” he said.

Yeah, but the ναccιnєs are more sorcery than science.

This is how far the novus ordo religion has gone to, The Bishop of Pueblo, Colorado says that if a Catholic in his Diocese that resist
in getting the vaccine and wearing of the mask can be denied the sacraments.

Most that have identified as atheists have probably taken the placebos to show that there is no fear in taking the ναccιnє.

Your comment just rang a bell 🔔

I have no source for this, other than hearing it from another trad 15 years ago.

The charge was the Pope Pius XI was αssαssιnαtҽd by injection.

In that era, vitamin B injections were popular among the upper classes. I recall seeing an example of it in a movie from the 1930’s.

The background was that the Pope received such pick-me-up shots from his doctor.  

As the story goes, the Pope was on the verge of issuing a Bull against Facism.

The weak Vatican security link was the Pope’s doctor who had a daughter who was one of Mussolini’s girlfriends.

This woman is said, under Mussolini’s influence, to have switched the vitamin B vial for a toxic version.

Well, the Pope received the shot and died the same day.

Another interesting facet to this story was that while on his deathbed, Pope Pius XI was talking to someone, not seen by those attending to him.

He acted as if he was receiving a reprimand or scolding for the failures in his papacy.  

(Another topic, but two examples of his Papal guidance mess-ups are Spain’s Civil ωαr and Mexico’s Cristeros).

The Pope is said to have spoken these words, while he was dying:

“It was not my intention”.

Atheists believe in science in an irrational way. They believe in science despite CONTRARY EVIDENCE from reason. We believe in God, but there is no RATIONAL EVIDENCE against God. We say that Faith is above reason, not contrary to it.

These idiots believe in anything.

"When a man stops believing in God, he'll believe in anything."

Just look at all the fools who believe in evolution, aliens, infinite energy sources (free energy, perpetual motion machine), solar panels installed in ROADS saving the world --

You should see the credulity of these morons. One Youtube channel "EEVBlog" covered this in depth. He debunked the idea that solar panels installed in roads is a good idea. He went over the numbers, the science, the engineering, often using THEIR OWN numbers. But countless atheists and "Science Faithful" send their money in -- just like protestant dupes donate thousands of dollars to the Televangelists and mega-churches -- who are nothing more than charlatan con artist laymen. It's exactly the same credulity. Google "Solar Freakin' Roadways" for more info. 

Atheists do not believe in science. They believe in the devil.

Nothing wrong with the scientific method, but this is not what scientismists truly believe, as the method proves them wrong.
Overshadowing the altar/the unholy of unholies, within the Temple of All Muddy Scientism, is indeed Satan. 

The media never gives the opposing side.  There are many Doctors that have come out against this vaccine. They are
not heard even on social media. The media spreads fear and proven false reports that the vaccine is beneficial.  They
are covering up that there has been deaths and severe illnesses cause by the vaccine, and it is going to grow as
time moves on.  Soon the Liberals are going to have admit their errors because it will affect their friends, families, and
close ones. It will be to late for them.
