2. Another one bites the dust...

[Zorro]

3. He's free at last!

Looking forward to more antivas gaining that same freedom!

[erronis]

21. Good term: "antivas". Now if we could encourage them to die at home

with their supposedly-beloved ones instead of taking up needed beds and resources at the hospitals.

4. Yet another covid suicide...

Good, let them die.

5. He who lives by the sword . . . You know the rest.

7. A stupid and evil person is gone

Good news.

12. Yes, good article - thank you for linking. I'm sure his family will be spinning.

“There’s no doubt in my mind that this is a spiritual attack from the enemy,” Lamb’s son, Jonathan, said about his father’s COVID-19 illness on a Nov. 23 broadcast of the Ministry Now program. “As much as my parents have gone on here to kind of inform everyone about everything going on to the pandemic and some of the ways to treat COVID — there’s no doubt that the enemy is not happy about that. And he’s doing everything he can to take down my Dad.”

I'd say the Devil took your dad. Your dad was in cahoots with the enemy.

9. Couldn't have happened to a more deserving person.

[edhopper]

10. We have to remember

The Trump Administration made the PP the biggest theft in American History.

[packman]

11. Called up to rest in the eternal bosum of the Lord

Just writing the press clip for the Evangelists out there

What about all those prayers? Did they fall on deaf ears???

13. A lamb of god who simply wasn't.

Fraud.

14. Gee, that's too bad.

15. They supposedly didn't have insurance? With all the $$$

they had from the PPP and their TV Network.

18. No pity. None.

Perfect example of the 'religious' greedy clowns that shill older folks out of thier life savings.

19. FRY IN HELL MARCUS!

[onecaliberal]

20. He got what he was begging for. Too bad it cant happen for all of them in one fell swoop.

[Botany]

22. He and his wife look liked such honest people too.

[AnotherMother4Peace]

27. Typical trump loving evangelical who cheats on his wife - 3 women whose claims just

kinda disappeared. He admitted to one w/the typical "I have sinned" theatrical display.

[Botany]

29. Somehow I think the good Mrs. Lamb knew all about her husband's pass times and I wouldn't be ...

... a bit surprised if she wasn't out playing the field too but as long as "his preachin'" brought in the
money and she lived the good life I don't think she cared. My late uncle and his wife were a small
S.W. OH town's Episcopal Rector and wife. Both lived their faith and saw that helping people was
their calling and left behind a community food pantry that has helped thousands of people regardless
of the people in needs faith, color, sexual I.D., or personal or mental problems. One of their daughters
is a rector in Cincinnati and has carried on their works. I think President Biden is another person who
lives his faith and sees helping people as a way to work through all the pain he has gone through.

[AnotherMother4Peace]

35. Your uncle, his wife, & daughter are true spiritual healers/helpers.

The people who truly make this world a better place. True Christians. Mr. Fred Rogers was like that. My kids and I used to watch him because he was like balm for the soul - not scary, not frightening, not judgmental - just a nice person who cared for and helped others. RIP Mr. Rogers - my hero.

[Botany]

37. Joe lives his faith too.

President Joe made a point of meeting this young lady with a stuttering issues and promised to help her with
her problem.

“Avery said to him ‘Mr. President, I have a stutter just like you,’” she wrote in the Facebook post. “He stopped everything, put his hands on her shoulders, looked her right in the eyes and said ‘Remember this: it doesn’t define you. I have had a stutter my whole life and I’m now the President of the United States. You can be anything you want to be.’ And he spent the next 10 minutes talking to Avery about his stutter, about the movie ‘The King’s Speech’ and some of the tricks he uses when the words get stuck.”

BTW that State Cop behind the President is very much "on point."

[AnotherMother4Peace]

40. Yes, President Biden does live his faith. Lovely story. Jimmy Carter

also lives his faith. Men like these (and Fred Rogers) have me once again looking to religion for a spiritual camaraderie. I grew up in a religious Catholic home, so that connection runs deep.

[modrepub]

23. Practiced What He Preached

and reaped what he sowed. Better than the Fox news hosts who espouse the antivaxers but vaccinate themselves and their families.

[Auggie]

24. More Social Security for the rest of us!

Well, not really. But let's spread it anyway ... it'll drive anti-vaxers nuts.

[Hulk]

25. The "silver lining"...

Please God, call home all of these weak minded grifters from our troubled world. The pain and ignorance they cause is too much to bare.

A bit of good news in this time of challenge. Take them ALL, Lord. They long for the "everlasting life" you offer. They may even spend it in the burning flames of hell that they fear....and have righteously deserved. 😈

[John Ludi]

26. Flying to heaven

in that jet he bought.

A lot of the regular people who have died, Trumpists though many of them were, elicit a twinge of sadness in me that varies depending on how obnoxious and mean they were in their denialism...but not this guy (or those like him); they get a wry smirk at a minimum.

[Roland99]

28. aww gee. what a cryin' shame

[Celerity]

30. ones less xian grifter........more of this please

[BradAllison]

31. So long, asshole

[bluestarone]

32. Come on TFG'S base

Please follow this guy.

33. Good post at sorryantivaxxer.com about how much disinformation Marcus pushed via his network.

According to social media posts (below), Marcus is in the ICU with COVID. This is significant because Marcus is responsible for promoting and spreading more anti-vaxx and pro-alternative treatment disinformation to more people than anyone on sorry-anti-vaxxer so far. In fact, he's claimed that he and his wife Joni have been taking Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine, and vitamins and minerals as a preventative. Apparently that didn't work out for him. Marcus and Joni own Daystar Television Network the second largest Christian Network in the World behind CBN. Throughout the pandemic, they have been hosting and promoting the most notorious anti-vaxxers in the world, many of whom are members of the despicable American Frontline Doctors which is being investigated by Congress for fraudulent practices and spreading misinformation. Marcus and Joni's guests on Daystar have been the likes of RFK, jr., Dr. Sherri Tenpenny (she told lawmakers that vaccines magnetize people), Dr. Lee Merritt, Dr. Simone Gold (founder of AFLD, and arrested during the Jan 6 attack on the Capital), Del Bigtree (CEO of antivaxx network), Dr. Rashid Buttar (who has claimed all vaccinated would be dead by 2025). You can see all of these performances at https://vaccines.daystar.com or you can stick with me here and I'll show you the one that is the most revealing and infuriating.

Rather than post some quotes or screenshots of tweets, I think the best thing to do is to see Marcus and Joni in action hosting Dr. Ryan Cole, the owner of Cole Diagnostics, a company which conveniently enough offers COVID testing. He's a fountain of disinformation, and obviously and intentionally misrepresenting statistics. The following interview is a scripted tsunami of disinformation pretending to be an interview. They touch on every single anti-vaxx argument we've seen on this site over the past four months. Why Doctors like Ryan Cole haven't been stripped of their medical licenses over this kind of performance is a testament that something has to change. These Christian grifters and these MD quacks are causing countless amounts of suffering and death.

First, he's introduced as having 350,000 "patients" and later he says he has had 100,000 covid patients. He didn't have patients, his lab Cole Diagnostics was conducting lab tests. Before COVID, these tests were run for other doctors and clinics, so they weren't his patients as he claims. During the pandemic, they did blood tests for people coming in to several partner clinics to test for COVID. Again it's a stretch to call these people HIS patients. This is the first sign that he's pulling the wool over the audiences eyes. It's also possible that as part of the AFLD Telemedicine group he may have prescribed 100,000 people with Ivermectin at $90 a pop. They never mention that expense only that ivermectin is $4 a box.

Marcus Lamb, co-founder and CEO of the conservative Christian Daystar Television Network who vocally opposed Covid vaccines, has died at age 64, weeks after contracting Covid-19, according to the network.

“It's with a heavy heart we announce that Marcus Lamb, president and founder of Daystar Television Network, went home to be with the Lord this morning," said a tweet Tuesday from the network. "The family asks that their privacy be respected as they grieve this difficult loss. Please continue to lift them up in prayer."

"Pray specifically for his lungs to clear the Covid pneumonia and pray for his oxygen level to continue to be strong and to go up so that we can wean him off of oxygen and bring him home," she said.

Jonathan Lamb described his father's Covid infection as "a spiritual attack from the enemy" to "take down" Marcus Lamb.

The network has dedicated hours of broadcasts to anti-lockdown and anti-vaccine individuals and groups.

If this doesn't cure you of religion, nothing will.

43. Another "Prosperity Gospel" Hypocrite

I found this article from NPR about the Daystar "Church" and how they spend the millions they rake in every year. They only give 5% of donations to "charity", and the charities are all Lamb related. Nice tax-free church there.

https://www.npr.org/2014/04/01/282496855/can-a-television-network-be-a-church-the-irs-says-yes

Marcus Lamb has an estimated net worth of $10m according to one net worth website I found.
