Ron Johnson Wonders Why We’re All Trying To Play God By Getting Vaccinated

Oh ye of little faith. Sen. Ron “just-asking-questions” Johnson (R-WI) is outraged that these high-and-mighty scientists think they can just go around making something that prevents deadly sickness instead of just leaving it to the Almighty.

I can understand why he’d lie to continue his silly game, but if he truly believes this it means he really is a fucking idiot.

Because the good lord helps those most who help themselves.

Trust me when I say he’ll have plenty of time to wonder when he’s removed from his seat in the Senate in the next session. The voters in WI have had enough of him.

I maintain that the only poll that matters is the one where the votes are counted and certified, but this guy is underwater.

Why do we think that we can create something better than God

Why should we build houses with central heat when God gave us caves and fire?

Looks like they’ve all taken on water.

Not enough of them. I’m hoping the J6 hearings will force more of them to take on water.

News Flash!! The very practice of medicine is “playing god.” Growing food, living in dwellings, making and wearing weather-appropriate clothing is most definitely “playing god” – just recall all the trouble Eve got into for making a smock to cover her nasty bits?

The old “playing god” schtick was past its sell-by date centuries ago. Only idiots and conmen still trot it out. Only the rubes still sucker into it.

Hey, Ron Johnson. Tell us how this applies to polio. Or smallpox. Or mumps, measles, or rubella. Why doesn’t God and our “marvelous natural immunity” work there?

We have two great candidates, among others, that have declared. Have a look at Mandela Barnes (current Lt. Gov under Evers) and Sarah Godlewski (current State Treasurer).

They are both excellent with wonderful name recognition in the State. Either one would be good.

Didn’t TFG create this vaccine all on his own?

I don’t follow the logic here.

Speaking of Eve … has anyone yet figured out why she and Adam (who, by the way, played God by creating her from one of his ribs) both have navels in every depiction ever made of the First Couple?

Full disclosure: This is just one of things that keep me awake at night.

Without Citz U this guy would still be pimping plastic for the company he married into. John Roberts has presided over the end of this Republic.

Philip Bump at the Post nails it:
“There are two ways you can learn that sticking your head in a campfire will hurt you. One is that you can be told that doing so will, at a minimum, catch your hair on fire and, more likely, cause extensive burns that will almost certainly demand medical attention. The other way you can learn this is by sticking your head in a campfire.”

RoJo: “Why are you telling me not to stick my head in a campfire when God obviously intended that I should learn not to stick my head in a campfire by doing so?”

Well, if you believe that stuff, “Adam” didn’t create Eve … he was “asleep” at the time, since the
creator was merciful back in the beginning, and removed the rib under Godly Anesthesia. As for navels, it’s easy. The term “rib” is a mistranslation and/or euphemism. Eve was actually created from Adam’s penis bone. Look it up! Most mammals have them; humans do not. And both male and female have the same number of ribs, in case you wondered about that.

Sen. Ron - you have it all wrong. The DEVIL made the virus. God gave us the mental ability to figure out how to thwart the Devil’s plans.

So Ron - are you siding with the Devil? Sure seems so.
