TOPEKA, Kansas — Kansas may not have any limits on the number of people who can safely gather — at all.
Republican leaders on the Legislative Coordinating Council voted Wednesday to overturn the Democratic governor’s executive order banning churches and funerals from having more than 10 people at services, which followed a wider directive from March 24. -

They need to read about the Chicago guy and the people infected at the funeral.

We're being badly let down by these people. They're either pathetically weak or woefully uninformed.

Or, their faith is strong.
Or, maybe the pastor has a note due on the beemer.

What‘s the excuse for Kansas’ Legislative Coordinating Council?

Maybe that's what they believe? Maybe they think an immortal soul is worth more than this earthly life?
You may not agree, but there are reasons.

The part that's iffy is when one's belief on what happens in the afterlife affects the health of others.

This seems like a difficult thing to get people to come to agreement on.

Only if it affects others. In NYC, it's probably around 100%. In Kansas, maybe.
I wouldn't do it, but I understand the sentiment.

There is sentiment, and there is reason.
As a matter of public policy to deal with a pandemic, which one should weigh a little more? -

The question is whether

Roberts wrote that state officials such as California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) had leeway to impose restrictions to prevent the spread of coronavirus, and had not singled out places of worship for unfair treatment.
