My Coronavirus Questions

true

Rodin’s The Thinker

I don’t count the number of quarantine days, but I know it has been a lot. These are the things I wonder about:

–This is a plague of biblical proportions. What is God’s point of view?


–When does personal safety become obsessive?


–Is this the Darwinian concept of “thinning the herd”?


–Should Trump be given a pass for his initial failure to address the pandemic appropriately?


–What if the choice is between quarantining and being with family?


–Thus far New York has been the hardest hit by far. Governor Cuomo seemed like the first leader to realize the gravity of the pandemic. Have New Yorkers somehow mishandled their response way more than the rest of us?


–If I was a public health worker, would I have the courage to go to work?


–How confrontational should I be with someone not observing social (I prefer the term physical) distancing with me? Or if I observe it with others?


–Is it okay for me to play golf?


–What is really going on in China?


–How worried should I be about our investments?


–Is it possible to avoid sharp words and angry feelings among quarantinites?


–I’ve gained 3–4 pounds. Am I blowing it?


–Will we have an election? Will it be fair?


–Should I watch Tiger King?


–Is Covid-19 really bringing families together or just accelerating whatever direction they were already headed?


–Aren’t I making a moral decision every time I go out the front door?


–How much sleep is too much sleep?


–Shouldn’t a true patriot want as many people to vote as possible? Isn’t that the foundation of democracy?


–Should parents feel guilty for placating their children with screen time?


–Is a jigsaw puzzle a pleasant diversion or a mindless escape?


–Do we want a cheerleader president?


–How much TV news is too much TV news?


–How long is this going to last?


–What is the best possible outcome of the pandemic?


–If Jesus is with me right here, right now…how can I be more aware of that?


–If I get it, will it kill me? Am I ready to die?


Those are the things I wonder about as I sit inside my house. If you would like to share, I would love to hear your opinions on any of them.
