Survey Says! The Results Are In

On August 11, Fulcrum7 posted a survey regarding personal liberty, forced Covid vaccines and the Seventh-day Adventist Church’s response. The results are now in.

• There were 1,000 individuals who took the survey. This survey is now closed.

• IP addresses indicate that people from all over the US took the survey. There were a small number of participants from Australia and Canada.

• Survey Monkey deleted a few responses (less than 10) that they thought were duplicate votes. They have been overseeing surveys for a long time, and they are pretty good at filtering out cheaters. We believe the final result is completely accurate.

• There is no way of knowing if only Adventists took the survey, but we can comfortably speculate that at least 96%-99% of participants are Seventh-day Adventist church members. Several of the questions are dealing with issues that only a Seventh-day Adventist would understand.

Observations

• A large majority of respondents see the legacy media as hostile to Christianity.

• The highest survey result is that personal liberty (or liberty of conscience) is a major factor in the End Time. Most respondents agree that it is.

• Nine out of ten respondents believe that the General Conference (GC) of Seventh-day Adventists have demonstrated a pro Covid vaccine bias, and as a result have given short shrift to any opposing viewpoint. An equal number (9/10) prefer that the GC would take a neutral stance instead of being pro-vaccine during a time when freedom of choice is being threatened.

• Only eight people thought that the Covid Vaccine was the Mark of the Beast. 99.2% reject this notion.

• There was a change in the direction of the answers during the midway point of the survey. A more pro-vaccine mandate contingent joined in. Towards the end, there was a trend towards personal liberty.

• 9/10 People see the current push to compel everyone to take the Covid vaccine as coercive and eschatologically ominous. First, people were bribed to get the vaccine through lotteries, free college, free marijuana etc, then they were subjected to a steady drumbeat of emotional manipulation. Now, many are being threatened that they will lose their jobs if they don’t allow themselves to be vaccinated. Others are being threatened that they will not be allowed to attend certain sporting events, concerts, shop at stores, or fly on an airplane unless they have a vaccine passport that tracks their compliance. Tremendous pressure is coming from many directions to compel you to accept this vaccine; they are coming for you, and 9/10 people in this survey recognize the dark spirit attending this campaign of coercion.

• Equally telling is the fact that people who have already acquired natural herd immunity by having and defeating Covid are also being compelled to get the vaccine, as if that will improve their immunity. This is ludicrous. The Covid vaccine is attempting to mimic natural immunity by artificial means.

• According to the Cleveland Clinic, a June 8 study on 52,238 people indicated that “not a single incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection was observed in previously infected participants with or without vaccination.” Their conclusion was that people with natural (herd) immunity have no need for the vaccine. They were viciously attacked for sharing these findings, and pressured to update this study with a pro-vaccine recommendation (which they eventually did this month).

• Holmes County Ohio in the heart of Amish Country is one of the least vaccinated counties in Ohio, and now has the lowest transmission rate of Covid. This is due to natural herd immunity among them. Similar results are reported in Lancaster County, PA, another large Amish population center.

• The conspiracy theory question (#7) may have confused some people, and for that we apologize.

• There were a few lighthearted answers thrown into the survey, and they didn’t affect the results. It’s ok to smile once in a while.

Thanks to all who participated in the survey. Your answers provide valuable insights into some of the issues confronting our world, country and Church. God bless you, and happy Sabbath.
