Liberty University bucked vaccine and mask requirements, now entire campus is in quarantine
The Evangelical Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia, has been having a tough couple of years. Not unlike the rest of the MAGA-supporting crowd, the COVID-19 pandemic has embodied the untenable communal experience of being led by morally hypocritical and preternaturally corrupt people. In March of last year, Liberty officials threw caution to the wind and opened up their campuses to returning spring session students. Very quickly, the Bible-based school faced the rough realities of science as the COVID-19 pandemic began spreading among students very quickly. The school closed down, like the rest of the country.
One might think an institution celebrating the pursuit of knowledge and critical thinking might learn from their experiences. One might, in this case, be wrong. Starting Monday, Liberty University will begin a campus-wide quarantine. NBC reports that the quarantine is the result of a spike in COVID-19 cases among “students and staff.” The quarantine is scheduled to end on Sept. 10 … for now. “The university changed its protocol late Thursday to enact the campus-wide quarantine, move classes online and suspend large, indoor gatherings.” Shockingly* the evangelical institution began the year by having absolutely no social distancing, capacity restrictions, mask requirements, or vaccine requirements. It is almost like virtually anyone with a reading comprehension above the age of zero years old could have predicted this outcome.
The school, which was started by the morally corrupt Jerry Falwell Sr.* and is now led by his watered down (but equally morally bankrupt) son, had to quickly shut down. This led to a lawsuit by Liberty students who accused the school of misrepresenting how safe the campus was, and then taking their money and freezing them out of the college experience they were promised. And guess what: any of these students are angry once again, though some of them don’t seem to understand how any of this works.
Kendall Covington, a senior at the school, told NBC local 10 news: “I’m upset. I mean, of course, I’m glad that steps are being taken to protect the students’ welfare; but to be honest, this is a slapstick measure.” Junior Nathan Grimes added: “If we had just taken some really simple steps, we could’ve avoided this whole issue.” Grimes went on to say that the irresponsibility shown here “kind of feels like you’re wasting you’re your money.”

To me, it means God has shown us "His will."
He wants us all to take the vaccine and stay healthy.
