Pandemic and fallacy.

 Pandemic and fallacy.

By Benedict Immanuel

After hearing various preachings through media I am here to confess and request. 

To the congregation 

Kindly do not go ask your pastor that 'why this pandemic happening? Or how this pandemic came? No one knows the right answer or even if someone says he/she knows the answer I am not sure It Is Right Answer. Virology wasn't there in our theological studies. We too suffer along with you. 

To my dear pastors 

Don't call this pandemic as God's wrath and punishment. If God wants to punish then God doesn't want second wave and virus mutant. 

Don't say we are alive because of God's blessings, it's just an accident. All those who dead are not sinners and all those who alive are not holy. 

Don't think we can answer all the questions. We aren't call to preach out of pandemic but learn from this pandemic. Call to ministry isn't answering all the questions but taking part in the suffering. 

Don't call this as an end of the world after taking vaccine! it makes no sense. No one knows where it ends and how. 

If our ship is broken in the middle of the water then it is no use in asking why it is broken and how it is broken. Let us swim to the shore first and then find the answer. 

Let's not confuse the suffering people. Let's just pray and spread love.
