Should I have gone with "Well, Ain't That a Bitch"? or maybe..... "Another GD Trump Voter"? ![[giveup]](//storage.proboards.com/7182076/images/FSYefibmKqtatIXMgHZg.gif)

A Hillsong church member contracted the virus after skepticism about its impact and the vaccine
Tributes are pouring in on social media for Stephen Harmon, a 34-year-old congregant of Hillsong Church who died of COVID-19 after he posted jokes about the pandemic.
Harmon, a graduate of Hillsong College, died Wednesday after a month-long bout with the coronavirus, The Daily Beast reports. Prior to his death, he shared several social media posts in which he appeared to not take the pandemic too seriously.
He made memes about trusting his faith over Dr. Anthony Fauci.
“When you can’t trust the Bible cause it was written by man, but you trust the CDC/Fauci guidelines cause they were written by man,” he wrote. “Makes total sense.”

He also made light of vaccine compliance efforts in a tweet earlier this month.
“Biden’s door to door vaccine ‘surveyors’ really should be called JaCovid Witnesses. #keepmovingdork,” Harmon tweeted on July 8. In June he wrote, “IF YOU’RE HAVING EMAIL PROBLEMS, I FEEL BAD FOR YOU, SON. I GOT 99 PROBLEMS BUT A VAX AIN’T ONE!”

But just a day later, Harmon revealed to his followers that he had been diagnosed with COVID. His situation deteriorated a few days later when he revealed he was “on max oxygen” and “struggling to function.”
One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned during this covid journey is this, when you find yourself in a position where faith is all you got left, there is a depth of trust & peace that comes because you discover there is no other option than to choose faith and joy in the trials.

His updates continued as he was diagnosed with bacterial pneumonia amid his COVID infection. Last week, Harmon noted that his health had declined and he was struggling to breathe. He said he was on “the max oxygen they can give me.”
“I’m overwhelmed by the kindness shown by so many of you over these last three weeks,” he said.
I’m overwhelmed by the kindness shown by so many of you over these last three weeks. You have no idea, truly, how much every text, dm, voice txt, video, or FaceTime call to pray has meant. I’m sorry if I haven’t responded to you, it just drains a lot of my energy to even text.

In his final tweet on July 21, Harman asked supporters to pray for him prior to being intubated.
“Please pray y’all, they really want to intubate me and put me on a ventilator.
“Even the slightest movements and my heart rate skyrockets and oxygen dependency increases,” he tweeted.
i’m choosing to going under intubation, i’ve fought this thing as hard as i can but unfortunately it’s reached a point of critical choice & as much as i hate having to do this i’d rather it be willingness than forced emergency procedure. don’t know when i’ll wake up, please pray,” he wrote.

Brian Houston, president of the Hillsong megachurch, confirmed Harmon’s death on Instagram.
“Stephen was just a young man in his early 30’s. He was a graduate from Hillsong College and a vital part of our church in California. He was one of the most generous people I know and he had so much in front of him. He would always turn up to our grandkids soccer games and he will be missed by so many. RIP.”
