An Arizona mega-church where President Donald Trump is set to hold a rally on Tuesday claimed it possesses technology to clear the air of the novel coronavirus.
The church is wrong, multiple scientists told The Daily Beast. The air filters that Dream City Church said it installed in its 3,000-seat Phoenix-area auditorium cant protect churchgoersor the presidentfrom SARS-CoV-2.
When you come into our auditorium, 99.9 percent of COVID is goneif it was there in the first place, Brendon Zastrow, the churchs chief operating officer, claimed in a video that TMZ obtained.
Luke Barnett, Dream City Churchs pastor, said in the same video that the mega-church has installed CleanAir EXP filter units. It was technology developed by some members of our church, Barnett said. And it kills 99.9 percent of COVID within 10 minutes.
This is absurd and will not protect you, Matthew Scotch, an Arizona State University epidemiologist, told The Daily Beast. Dream City Church didnt respond to an email requesting comment.

Good luck Arizona. You're going to need it.

Religion is a cult mentality. No one can convince me otherwise. I wish it would just go away.

they very well might. doesn't change the fact that before that sneeze hits the filtration system it lands on your face.

I'm calling bs

"we don't need evidence. We just say the lie repeatedly and people eventually accept it, just like our president does"

And that's how you get your church to be sued.

Right? It doesn't even matter whether or not I believe that the filtering kills the virus. 10 minutes is a few orders of magnitude longer than it takes for newly dispersed virus to infect someone.

The casino that I used to work at said that they have their air ventilation system that does something similar. I was highly sceptical.

IRS:
Currently, the law prohibits political campaign activity by charities and churches by defining a 501(c)(3) organization as one "which does not participate in, or intervene in (including the publishing or distributing of statements), any political campaign on behalf of (or in opposition to) any candidate for public office."

Maybe Trump supporters will fall victim to natural selection and we won't have to worry about them anymore

It's a shame some people stupid enough to believe this may have to die. Being an absolute moron and getting yourself sick is one thing, but when you have people in authority you look up to flat out lying because they don't care about your life and view you as completely disposable...it's a bit shit now isn't it.

Sometimes, I wish someone would go to these concentrations of stupidity and troll it by coughing like it's their preferred method of exhaling.

I was planning on going to Sedona for the 4th of July weekend but since Arizona seems determined to follow in Florida's footsteps, I cancelled that trip in a hurry.

Most of these people would have called the police on Jesus because he was a suspicious brown guy wandering around their neighborhood.
