An article published here at Orange County Breeze recently gave details about SB 397, the “Religion is Essential Act.” The bill is sponsored by State Senator Brian Jones (R-District 38). A reader responded to that article in this fashion: So Brian believes that his faith is too weak and/or his god is too weak to survive basic safety precautions. If he believes that his faith carries him then let it carry him and his adherents without endangering others. If he believes that his god is all powerful and omnipresent then allow his god to support him anywhere and everywhere during this time when social distancing and wearing of masks and avoiding congregating is to be advised.
