[PADA: OK, the point is? If we are religious people, we cannot always act like we just don't care about the real life problems in the real world, like for example spreading a virus. We might make religion look a little kooky. OK, and maybe a little dangerous too.
All right, actually dangerous because if these people get sick, they can give the virus to others and maybe, the rest of the world. And the result is, many people might end up thinking this religion is the cause of the spread of this virus, just like a religious group was already spreading the virus in S. Korea and trying to hide it. Not helping give religion a good name here?
At least religious people should try to keep up with the idea that we are not infallible and God does not always protect snake handlers, fire walkers, bleach drinkers, site lickers and other methods of worship that could cause illness or death. Did I forget to mention a lot of Krishna devotees did whacked out things that gave their religion the reputation of being impractical, and maybe dangerous as well?
Its not something we should be doing, and neither should these folks. Anyway, they think they are getting a bag of pearls in heaven by going to this site. OK maybe. Or maybe they might just end up sick or dead, just saying! ys pd]
