  1. OP Answer : NO, because zero scientific evidence AND all scientific evidence in fact points away from such belief, e.g. intelligent design. People “believe” all kinds of nonsense but can PROVE NOTHING.

     

    “That which is presented without Evidence can be Dismissed without Evidence” (C. Hitchens).

    Large Claims Require Large Evidence completely lacking from any religionist.

    Separate Fact from Fiction and Science from Belief. Do Not Impose Beliefs. Permit Skepticism.

     

    Irrational Beliefs eventually die out in civilized places due to weight of reason,logic & science. But people have to give up (or not adopt) such beliefs.They cannot and should not be forced to renounce.  For example the apostasy rate in UK for adults renouncing Islam ,after being unable to reconcile it  with Western Reason, is 10%- 15%. Imagine that rate if Death removed as the prescribed apostasy sanction……90%?

  2. OP Title should read “afraid ….to Die….of Covid”, right ? In which case NO.

    As a Fit Healthy Unfat Vaxxed 65, have made a maximum effort not to Die, reduced oddsNear Zero

    If just generally afraid of other covid “consequences”.Again, NO.

    Not because the consequences have not been devastating to people socially & financially….they have, but they are a done deal with no individual control so what use would “being afraid” be ? 

    Covid is just another Life Risk to Identify, Minmize & Manage, like Health or Road Safety.

  3. Curious exactly HOW Health Insurance Companies can actually trace ANY persons medical history, declared or undeclared, with current Privacy & Confidentiality laws. What can do they do, other than Decline, if you just say never been injured or ill, just child vaxx, no reg. doctor, etc. ? Would they find out from Medical Reports for Claimed Treatment showing Previous Surgery / Illness ?

  4. Fractured Spine & Lucky Not Worse ….good grief…….no wonder many refuse to drive here…worst road traffic stats. anywhere worldwide……..20-22k Dead every year……

     

    Motorbike Defensive Driving Safety Reminder : NEVER become stationary / unshielded in the road. Anywhere. For any reason. EVER.  I rarely stop at traffic lights (continue safely at T junc. or exit road left / u turn re- entry). no stopping for non- t/light right turn ( drive on /pull over /  u turn crossing when completely clear). If cannot safely continue SHIELD Bike behind Larger Vehicle.

     

    Constantly check 360 degrees and travel at max. safe speed to minimize a moving rear -ender. Helmet-Gloves - Shoes. No Accidents in 17 years here on & off. No interest in contrary suicidal road traffic laws. I am not here to join traffic queues or visit hospital emergency wards…….never driven our car here….too slow & inconvenient…..car for my lady to drive (child & myself as passengers) for family convenience & best safety …….always worried when lady uses bike !

  5. Using Different Name. Obscure Rich Country Passport. Ocean Yacht & Limo Travel. Small Seaport or Remote Land Country Entry. No Airports. No Data Entry. Large Sunglasses defeating any Camera or Personal Facial Recognition. Staying Friends Luxury Homes / Yachts. Permanently Off Grid. No Police Resources would ever find him. Bribe Way Out of any one thousand chance Arrest.

     

    NSA could find him in a Heartbeat via Phone / Family / Associates Tracking. NSA Never Asked of course……some People are simply above the Law Anywhere.

  6. NO. Got a Longstay Visa (LV) here for only the second time when the Covid Amnesty for my (forced) Visa Exempt entry expired end Sept last year.Online Tourist Visa process had been unofficially stopped in UK even back then in March last year. Previously used those now cancelled Six Mth Tourist Visas to avoid local immi. LV process.

     

    LV provided peace of mind and enabled my Yellow Book / National ID / Five Year DL. Took Govt. 7-10 days I think to introduce Covid Extention (CE) after Amnesty Expired. That delay was clearly intended to force people out or to get LV or generate large overstay fines. Poor and Dishonest Immigration Practice which they must feel “worked” sufficiently either practically and/ or politically; so been carrying on with that.

     

    Certainly CE will continue after 27 Nov long gone. Govt. will continue to dishonestly delay announcing this, to see if they can move people out or get them to use LV agents…….But that “trick” only generally works once although there are always “new fish”. People figure out that unless, as good governance, Govt. officially cancel CE well in advance, it will certainly continue.Imm. in fact have no practical alternative method to legitimize & control so many ……and it’s a good supplemental earner.

     

    Also, yes, CE a simple convenient “concession” for farangs who want to stay here without being able, or not wanting, to deal with the LV Immi. process.

    You're over the top man.  By all means don't take <deleted> but it doesn't sound like a fun life for you or her if she is apparently shouted down for having a different opinion or speaking her mind. 

    Zero tolerance trip wire. I'd like to cross it and see what you do to someone bigger and stronger than you. 

    no shouting or bullying. as you wrongly insert from nowhere. just done. so no life. thats the point. applies to females. not into ladyboys so didnt date anybody bigger & stronger. your reading comprehension needs work.

    this article makes clear the various US constitutional federal and state duties arising from pandemics.

    appears that vigorous state responses are strongly dependent on fast effective federal actions.

    suppose this piece also applies in principle to other “free federations” like Canada, Australia & even UK with it’s “devolved parliaments”.

    Two Wheeled Version of the ludicrous Sinclair C5 !
