I always ask this question to believers in Jesus. Not a trick question.
IS GOD IN THE HEART OF THE DEVIL?

@ Michael S:
I think you are obfuscating and trying to distract or deflect from your own stated point, that being
Being put by Him in charge of the Earth and its creatures does NOT mean being put in charge of His Creation (see Genesis on what He created other than the Earth and its creatures) nor does it mean being made omnipotent by Him.
This means that it is humans that put Dr. Fauci in charge of this particular health problem.
Human deeds are judged (ultimately) by God but He gives us the freedom of will so we won’t accuse Him of our own bad deeds.
No, He doesn’t need any help from us, humans but we do need help from Him.
He is One, Indivisible, Perfect, Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent, and Immortal.
Also invisible and unknowable.

Antiviral drug remdesivir prevents COVID-19 progression in monkeys – JPost
The study, led by the NIH’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases involved two groups of six rhesus macaque monkeys that were intentionally infected with the respiratory disease.Testing of remdesivir on humans began with a clinical trial at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha in February, and the University of Chicago Medicine Hospital, which on Thursday reported seeing rapid recoveries in fever and respiratory symptoms in 113 patients with coronavirus who were being treated with the experimental drug. Nearly all patients were discharged from hospital in less than a week, the Chicago report stated.
Shares of Gilead Sciences Inc. rose 10% in early trading on Friday after reports of the success of the trials at the hospital.
US Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson, a noted surgeon who is a member of the White House coronavirus task force, said on Friday that remdesivir appeared to be a promising treatment for COVID-19.
“It is very promising and it has been utilized in various places, not just in one clinical study,” Carson told Fox Business Network.

The antiviral drug remdesivir has shown significant results in monkeys that had been infected with the novel coronavirus, a study by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has revealed.
The study, led by the its National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) involved two groups of six rhesus macaque monkeys that were intentionally infected with the respiratory disease. One group was treated with remdesivir while the second was not.
The first group of monkeys was given its first dose of the drug intravenously 12 hours after the initial infection, and then every day for a further six days. Twelve hours after the initial treatment, symptoms of COVID-19 in the monkeys had significantly improved and their conditions continued to improve during the rest of the trial.
At the end of the test, just one of the six animals treated with remdesivir displayed mild difficulty breathing, while all six animals in the untreated group had difficulty breathing.
The amount of virus found in their lungs was significantly lower in the treatment group compared to the untreated group, the study stated, and the coronavirus caused less damage to the lungs in the treated monkeys than in the untreated ones.
“Early treatment with the experimental antiviral drug remdesivir significantly reduced clinical disease and damage to the lungs of rhesus macaques infected with SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus that causes COVID-19,” the NIH wrote in a statement.
Remdesivir, originally produced by American biotech company Gilead Sciences Inc. to treat Ebola, is one of several drugs being tested to evaluate their ability to treat the novel coronavirus; clinical trials are already underway with human patients.
Testing of remdesivir on humans began with a clinical trial at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha in February, and the University of Chicago Medicine Hospital, which on Thursday reported seeing rapid recoveries in fever and respiratory symptoms in 113 patients with coronavirus who were being treated with the experimental drug. Nearly all patients were discharged from hospital in less than a week, the Chicago report stated.

just for the record, I’m opposed to animal testing, but just the same, Israel is clearly not being led by the nose by China or the WHO.
@ yamit82:
Hi, Yamit. You said,
“.If God is truely omnicient he /it would need no help or aid from any source….A god whose power is limited is not a real god and should not be worshipped as one.”
1. “If” God is [able]? My God has no hangup there. Sorry about yours.
2. “he /it would need no help…” Yamit, I see you have trouble in these matters. The God of Torah says,
Gen. 1:
[28] And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
[29] And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
[30] And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
[31] And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
How you see this as “weakness” on [my] God’s part, as though He somehow needed help, shows a lack of understanding on your part. I suggest that you consult your rabbi, and get the story straight.

Yamit,
The airplane is fine, and the landing gear are very sound. If some passengers want to make life miserable for one another with their kvetching, that’s not my business. Neither does it matter to me, if so many of them want to fly the plane themselves. What matters to me, is that I secure my seat belt. Beyond that, it’s in God’s hands.
I’m sure that if people dug deeply enough, they’d find fault not only with Dr. Fauci but with all of us. In spite of this, God has put the doctor on this team, and us, the unlikeliest of creatures, in charge (for the moment) of His creation.
Bon voyage!
Michael S Said:
Haaaaa, Then we are all doomed.!!!!! Ya can’t land on flat tires. and faulty landing gear. 😛
@ Michael S:
Michael, think again.
What if your navigator is a suicide bomber? Or simply thoroughly incompetent (cannot tell a cloud from a mountain range)?
@ Shmuel Mohalever:
Shmuel,
All that you say about Dr. Fauci may be true; but we are in this airplane together, President Trump is the pilot and Dr. Fauci is the navigator. I wish them all well.
BTW, God is the airplane, and Jesus is the landing gear. Shalom shalom. Happy landing 🙂
Thanks for publishing this, Ted.
Another worrisome development is that Israel has apparently ordered an expensive batch of remdesivir on the basis of the misleading “spin” that Fauci put on the results of the “international” study that Fauci organized and the USG paid for. While the study did not find evidence that remdesivir can cure CV-2, Fauci made statements suggesting that the study proved r.s’ effectiveness
In this as in so much else, Israel has a way of blindly following the lead of the U.S.
Also disturbing is that Israel is apparently only using hydroxicloriquine to as a profylaxic treatment to protect front-line health-care workers. It is not administering it to patients. A decision influenced by Fauci’s repeated claims that h.c. has “dangerous side effects?”
Remdesivir’s effectiveness in treating CV-2 patients is even less than what Bill Still reports. A Chinese double-blind study in Wuhan, kept secret by the Chinese government, WHO and our CDC, concluded that remdesivir was completely ineffective. Dr. Fauci arranged for an international study of remdesivir’s effectivness in treating CV-2, financed and directed by the CDC as the lead agency. It compared its effectiveness to that of a placebo administered to other patients. While the number of deaths from those given remdesivir was slightly less than those given a placebo, the authors of the study concluded that the difference was not enough to show any statistically significant correlation between remdesivir use and recovery from CV-2. Dr. Fauci nonetheless hailed the result as strong evidence of the effectiveness of remdesivir, and immediately authorized its use on a “compassionate basis” for critically ill patients. He proposed “fast-tracking” remdesivir for general, unrestricted use.
Since two clinical trials have proven the drug ineffective in treating remdesivir, Dr. Fauci’s only plausible motive for touting it is that it has the potential to make big bucks for Giliad, which has patented it.
Dr. Fauci has never proposed or authorized a U.S. government-funded-and-directed study of hydroxichlorichine.
That America’s lockdown response to the CV-2 epidemic is directed by such a corrupt, uncaring individual is probably the gretest scandal in American history.
