The Attorney General also made the point that at this time, the authorities aren't prepared to relax the State of Emergency regulations to allow you to go to church. We have heard of reports that certain denominations are agitating for a bit of freedom to worship.

"Do you see, perhaps, relaxation for especially the Evangelical Churches?"

"I think God blessed us with good sense, and know that we can worship God and praise God without necessarily endangering ourselves with a disease. I think we have to find creative ways to do things.

But, my God is very understanding. And if I die from COVID-19 because I'm stupid, he would be very disappointed that I didn't use the senses he gave me."
