Read Time:1 Minute, 23 Second
The flu season is particularly bad this year and will result in between 14,000 and 56,000 American deaths when all is said and done, and puts 140,000 to 710,000 people in the hospital but hey, you don’t need a flu shot if you have Jesus.

A controversial minister who serves on President Donald Trump’s evangelical advisory board has said that belief in Jesus Christ is a viable alternative to flu shots, urging people: “Inoculate yourself with the word of God.”
Gloria Copeland also attempted to discredit the idea that there’s even a flu season, despite widespread campaigns from health officials to combat illness during the winter months.
The 75-year-old founded the Kenneth Copeland Ministries in Texas with her husband, who sits on the board alongside her.
“Well, listen, partners, we don’t have a flu season,” Copeland said in a video clip posted to the Facebook page of one of Copeland’s churches (via Right Wing Watch).
“And don’t receive it when somebody threatens you with, ‘Everybody’s getting the flu.’ We’ve already had our shot: He bore our sicknesses and carried our diseases. That’s what we stand on.”
Copeland prayed for those who already have the flu, saying: “Flu, I bind you off the people in the name of Jesus. Jesus himself gave us the flu shot, He redeemed us from the curse of flu.
She then said that the best way for people to protect themselves from the illness is to declare: “I’ll never have the flu.”

The ironies of how this crazy lady is against vaccinations is that one the disciples of Jesus, Luke, was a Greek physician. Did Jesus choose Luke for the medical needs of his other 11 disciples and also so the Force could be with Jesus and his disciples?
The other insane irony is that according the New Testament books of Corinthians, women are not even allowed to be preachers! So shut up and stop conning millions of poor, innocent gullible people into sending you millions of dollars in tax-free profits, you stupid, obnoxious lady!
Under the 1st Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, you have the right to own and read an unregistered Bible, the right to choose the church of your choice, and you even have the right to annoy people on public streets to try to win converts.
But, you do not have the right to endanger your children’s lives by denying them proper medical care and replacing it with the dangerous bullshit of “faith healing”. Even though unfortunately, you do still have the right to rob your children of their childhoods by refusing to let then dress up in costumes and celebrate the harmless holiday of Halloween, just of bullshit that Halloween “is of the devil”.
Wacked out religious fucks are responsible for most of the world’s troubles.
Yes, this is why we are in the state we are people like this moron. Her church started a measles outbreak with this kind of bullshit a while back. Idiots surround us.
Idiots do surround us, and when there are millions of them “surround” becomes the operative word. I wonder how many of them will get the flu while praying to the jeepers?
