I know. There's also no money in the termination of the conference. They waited way to long to act at every single decision/crossroad. They were reactionary in every single one of those and now we are talking about how long the conference is going to be around (potentially)

In my view, the problems steming from the ACCN were mostly about timing....took too long to read the room and react. Also thought it was really dumb of them to want to be like the SEC and B1G. They should have leaned in to the "basketball conference" position and take the wins in football...

I can understand why you'd think this absolutely knowing your background. It needed to be significantly more elementary than it was. Like "foreign proteins are something your body attacks" basic.

Of course they need to do better. You'll notice my comment on what they should have done: "You didnt ask me, but the first thing they should have done was assume that people had a less than 3rd grade understanding of the immune system and educate everyone starting there. Then utilize the...

I'm not really confident I know who "you guys" is in this statement, but giving the most generous interpretation I feel like I can, still makes this seem like a grossly inaccurate generalization. I get that this was an eye opener for you and you are now seeing what politics can do to what...

You didnt ask me, but the first thing they should have done was assume that people had a less than 3rd grade understanding of the immune system and educate everyone starting there. Then utilize the phrase "we dont know yet, but are working on getting the answers" WAY more than they did.

SOME of us tried it for a couple years....thus the problem....it wasn't enough and we pretty much knew what was going to happen when not enough people jumped on board to do the right thing. This country's "work ethic" is wired differently than most of the rest of the world and it showed.

It was relatively easy to see that a portion of us citizens were not going to be willing/able to do what was necessary to keep themselves and others safe. We are sorely lacking in medical knowledge in this country. I learned a **** ton about the immune system during the pandemic, but that was...

I don't know why this is a problem all of a sudden. Relying on others seems to be a much bigger problem and illustrated quite well in this series of events. And I agree 100% with you on those institutions failing us, which is another reason I don't see it as a problem to do your own research...

We could get into a long back and forth as to what it "points to". I'll simply say that the research on this virus and the study on this virus is/was, for the most part, transparent if one took the time to find it and follow it. If people settled on being lead around by others on it, the bold...

Feelings dont replace facts.

I'll disagree slightly. The further this goes along, the further the research validates the vaccines and their success. Each passing day the anti-vaccine talking points get more and more nonsensical and flat out incorrect.

The bold is how it's different. We're talking about two completely different situations....sorry for not articulating my thoughts better. What rock is professing is starkly different (IMO) than having a bad day, not feeling it and doing it anyway. It's purely going through the motions because...

:lmao: With all the other restrictions on this place, how is this crap still allowed?

What the hell are they doing up there?!?!?!?!?! :lmao:

Whether you know it or not, the bold pretty much sums up the stuff I'm talking about REALLY well. When one observes the sacrament of Baptism because "that's what I'm supposed to do" that's moved into the "checklist" world I was talking about before. When you do things "because I was told to"...

dgreen said it clearer than I did.....my only point was when the "fruit" of our faith becomes a "checklist" instead, there's a large problem. Taking the time to explain your background helps me understand where you're coming from. Totally see why my comments might have been strange...no...

In the minds of many of us, this is clearly "either/or" and NOT "both/and" though....that was my point. They aren't to be lumped together as a "whole". In an attempt to answer your question in a different way. "Religion" for many of us is that point where all the ceremony and social parts...

My mom went here for some time and I know Chad pretty well. He "gets it" when it comes to focus and purpose.
