Even during 64-year-old COVID victim Marcus Lambs funeral Monday, his network Daystar was pumping out more virus falsehoods.We are taught not to speak ill of the dead, these now including 64-year-old Marcus Lamb, the anti-vax, pro-ivermectin televangelist who died of COVID-19 last week.
But what of the still living who may join the dead if they listen to the falsehoods about the virus and the vaccines that were being aired by Lambs television network even as his funeral was held at a Texas megachurch on Monday?
Among the shows available for streaming on the Daystar Christian TV network, valued at more than $1 billion and capable of reaching 2 billion viewers, is one from last Mothers Day in which Lamb actually insisted that his opposition to the vaccine was an effort to save lives. That, and to thwart the devil.
The devil can take people out before they fulfill destiny and purpose, Lamb said. Thats what he wants to do because he hates God. So the only way he could get back at God is by trying to attack Gods children.
At the end of the show, co-hosted by his wife, Joni Lamb, and featuring fellow anti-vaxxers Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Del Bigtree, the televangelist advised viewers to place their faith in two unproven drugs as well as God.

Here's the problem with people like this: they will always double down and become even more extreme in their beliefs, instead of admitting they fucked up. It's the same mindset of today's Republicans.

I think dead televangelist anti-vaxxers are my favorite dead anti-vaxxers.
