I am shocked that the other religions were disregarded. The Jews can celebrate Passover in isolation but the President has ignored them. He simply doesn’t care

If you visit church regularly you will understand the position of christians in this Covid_19 situation. The church is not the building but the venue where the church of God prepare for eternal life including this material crisis; piece of cake. turnSAback2God

I pray that this imbecile in the picture goes to jail for a long time. What are the chances of that happening despite the prayer? Religion is just an unnecessary illusion for the hopeless and the weak. Imagine what kind of a person follows and believes in a crook like Bushiri 🤔

Mara this guy is trying to be relevant. Sometimes when he comes on I get confused who is president him or cr?.

I run out of cigarettes tomorrow, so tomorrow I get into my car.. and I begin the long and risky journey to the Western Cape to buy more. Risking contracting CV-19 and if I'm a symptomsless carrier, I risk infecting others. From Johannesburg to the Western Cape is huge expense!!

And why are you showing us a picture of this chap?🤷‍♂️

There would be less road fatalities.

I believe it was the first and the last... We are Christians not some devil worshipers... We need to gather in Easter, to pray for these kind Of things called pandemics..

Very sad 😔 reality
