In reply to We are not disagreeing, you

Read about the influenza epidemic of 1918 and look at influenza vaccines now. Look at the early days of AIDS and the improved survivals now. Look at diabetes in the past and diabetes now. Look at the cures for some childhood leukemias.

Despite poverty Nigeria seems to be making progress in controlling the spread of Ebola

We are not disagreeing, you should stay afraid. God provides answers, science is a tool that enables use to find answers to his creation.

You've got this idiotic idea that fear is a terrible thing or that it is crippling.

Fear is good thing. For example Fear can cause government to address the people’s needs.

Fear can also keep you from trouble.

But your constant rosy scenarios, causes me to question your grasp of reality or that you are imprudent.

3 s The prudent sees danger and hides himself,

but the simple go on and suffer for it. Proverbs 22:3

I choose to be prudent and if you don't, that is your problem; it is you that will suffer for it as will those who listen to you.

I’ve come to realize, why you can’t accept Border security. as an important issue or solution, to this epidemic as I do

“It is hard to be defensive toward a danger which you have never imagined existed.”

You talk about possibilities, as though you were so enlightened, with positivity, but with all your so called enlightenment, you apparently could never imagine the possibility existed, that diseases can cross our southern borders undetected.

The effort to enforce the laws. is met by half measures, insufficient to properly address the problem,

Now You want us to believe. the government can stop this biological epidemic which can't be seen, when it couldn't stop the epidemic flow of undocumented workers coming into this country?

Heres another opinion of why fear is a good thing

1 – Fear keeps you alive At the most basic level, fear is a survival instinct. It is a necessary response to threats and dangers. It has protected us as a species from extinction. Without fear, we wouldn’t have known to run away from that sabre-tooth tiger or step back from that thousand foot drop. Fear is a biochemical reaction that has been vital for our survival. It is responsible for the fight or flight response. So if nothing else, be grateful for fear, it has brought us into 2012 thriving and continuing to grow as a species. 8 reasons why fear is good for you | Existing2Living

In reply to You focus on fear and

Fear is what will keep us alive, if are minds are capable of rational thought, Not to be fooled by those who wear rose colored glasses.

(BTW Fear is what keeps law and order. Without fear, criminals would rule and disease spreads.

All you talk about is possibilities; as though they were assurances.

Talk about arrogance of mans capabilities.

We've already been warned by the Experts, telling of the drug resistance of Super Strains who would disagree with your hopeful possibility scenarios.

They telling us one thing; YOU spreading make believe.

Next you'll be telling us about the possibility, of the existence of magic ponies?

You resist even the most fundamental of precautions, of protecting the American homeland by not securing the border, against those entering by foot, by sea or by air.

You would have everyone be ignorant and turn a blind eye, of who is coming into our house,, because you are so certain, your so called "possible solutions" will be proven to be effective.

The only rose colored in your possibility scenario, is due to the blood on your hands, for fighting against reason.

You focus on fear and

You focus on fear and destruction. You do not look to the possibility that tests will be developed to detect the virus early. There is the possibility of developing vaccines from survivors, we are being supplied with solutions and you are deaf, choosing to remain cowering in a corner while others risk their lives to find answers. God answers prayers, but action is required to find treatments. Those of little faith can remain depressed.

You did look up the history and demographics of Liberia before reaching your conclusions, no?

It is interesting, but of what real importance is it now, when considered in the stream of time; if there will be anymore mankind, to record the future?

What if there is no cure for Ebola other than Hope?

Possibility: Survivors will record, mankind's trust in science did not save them.

God cannot be blamed for this destruction, mankind' own stupidity. brought his own demise

In hindsight, men may conclude, they acted to slow in dealing with the Ebola epidemic,

History might record, the contagion spread to all reaches of the Earth, everyone was affected, because rulers hesitated in destroying the virus, when there was time to act decisively, before the contagion spread beyond control.

The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah as recorded in Genesis is a good account to draw upon

The Genesis account, doesn't give a lot of detail about Epidemiology or even the discovery of HIV, but maybe God realized, only fire could destroy the virus that had the potential of spreading disease, to the surrounding regions, A disease prevalent amongst the inhabitants, of those named cities. Better the destruction of Sodom than let the disease spread?

As ruler of the Universe, God acted decisively; in contrast to Earth's rulers, wanting to be like God, didn't act wisely, allowing a condition, where mankind is threatened with extinction, by his own hand.

Listen! Can you hear the heavens mock arrogant man, who said he didn't need Gods help?

"Earth's rulers; save yourselves and your subjects"

It is the height of arrogance

It is the height of arrogance for man to reflexively blame a traumatic event on God's punishment. Take New Orleans, for example. Strip clubs and gambling, therefore Katrina was Go's punishment. We don't have to consider man's stupidity in putting homes on swampland or erecting levees that were known not to be able to handle a heavy storm. When things collapse it is God not man at fault. Pathetic.

The Superior Authority Government in Liberia did not think sanitation was important and when a communicable disease spreads it is God's fault, not the short-sightedness of man.

Instead of man taking responsibility, man looks for scapegoats.

It is the fault of the Gays.
