Originally posted by DivineOb View PostI agree it is spiritual as well as medical and I'm glad to hear that religion helped your father. I'd fully support re-opening churches where they fill that spiritual need for addicts. But that's not why Trump is deeming them 'essential services' or why many on here want churches re-opened.

Originally posted by RumTumTugger View PostI"m like you CP. But those same governors and states are calling Planned Parenthood and liquor stores essential, Trump is just telling the Governors they cannot go against the 1st amendment by treating places of worship differently. I think this decision is according to the Constitution.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
