Tony Spell, a pastor in Louisiana who became the second religious leader to face charges over continuing church services amid coronavirus shutdowns, says he doesn't like livestreaming because he can't "lay hands" on his parishioners as he can in person.

"I cannot baptize people in a livestream. I can not lay hands on people in a livestream. I cannot pray for people in a livestream, and this is our biblical command - to lay hands on the sick and when they recover baptize them by immersion in water, which we do every day," Spell told Insider.

"lay hands"
Who wants to be touched by that slime? Nothing flows through him but a need for attention.

Lay hands, humm, I think that is the problem driving the pandemic. What an idiot.

Couldn't he go all Benny Hinn and just hit people with his jacket?

I did that hyper-charismatic thing for several years out of obligation; my pa-in-law was the pastor. Finally had to say look here wife, I’ve got to lead us somewhere else to worship. Caused a lot of tension. Still is.

I believe people have the right to worship, I also believe he has a moral obligation to his community to help keep them safe as they look to him for leadership

This man gives is not a pastor, he’s a con man
