San Jose教堂称信仰会保护他们平安健康，所有平安夜将......
（NBC）San Jose Church Plans Christmas Eve Service in Defiance of Health, Court Orders
圣荷西教堂无视健康和法庭命令，计划进行平安夜礼拜
Pastor and his attorneys say their faith protects them from the virus, and the order is unconstitutional
帕斯特和他的律师说，他们的信仰保护他们免受病毒的侵害，而这一命令是违宪的
A San Jose church Thursday evening plans to hold an indoor Christmas Eve service despite public health and court orders against it, as well as fines that are stacking up with each violation.
尽管公共卫生部门和法院已下令禁止，而且每次违反规定都会被处以罚款，但圣何塞的一家教堂仍计划于周四晚举行室内平安夜礼拜。
Calvary Chapel San Jose's leaders and their attorneys say their faith protects them from the virus and federal law allows them to hold services where and when they want. They have scheduled an indoor candlelight service for 5 p.m. Thursday, according to the church website.
圣何塞教堂和他们的律师表示，他们的信仰保护他们不受病毒感染，联邦法律允许他们在任何时间和地点举行礼拜活动。据教堂网站称，他们已经安排了周四下午5点的室内烛光仪式。
Pastor Mike McClure already has been slapped with hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines after defying the county's health order by holding indoor services with hundreds in attendance, many of whom were not wearing masks or social distancing.
牧师迈克·麦克卢尔已经被处以数十万美元的罚款，因为他违反了县的卫生命令，在数百人参加的室内服务中，许多人没有戴口罩，也没有保持社交距离。
Santa Clara County health officials have pleaded with the church to cancel masses due to packed intensive care units and rapid infection rates across the county, the Bay Area and the state. Earlier this month, a judge agreed with the county and ordered the church to halt indoor services.
圣克拉拉县卫生官员已经请求教堂取消礼拜，原因是重症监护室拥挤不堪，以及全县、湾区和全州的快速感染率。本月早些时候，一名法官同意县政府的意见，命令教堂停止室内服务。
County health officials are afraid an event such as Thursday night's could become a super spreader that has the potential to sicken and even kill a lot of people.
县卫生官员担心，像周四晚上这样的事件可能会成为超级传播者，有可能使很多人生病甚至死亡。
"COVID is a silent killer," county Public Health Officer Dr. Sara Cody said. "There will be silent chains of transmission until someone is severely ill and requires hospitalization and dies."
“新冠病毒是一个无声的杀手，”县公共卫生官员萨拉·科迪(Sara Cody)博士说。“将会有无声的传播链，直到有人得了重病，需要住院治疗并死亡。”
Even with all the sanctions and court losses, McClure continued to defy the order, saying God's word is "a bigger law." His attorneys, who planned to appeal the injunction, continue to question the constitutionality of the county's health order.
尽管受到了制裁，并在法庭上败诉，麦克卢尔还是继续违抗命令，他说上帝的话是“更大的法律”。他的律师计划对禁令提出上诉，他们继续质疑该县的卫生令是否符合宪法。
"The orders are unconstitutional because, as the Supreme Court affirmed, you can’t treat religious services differently than essential businesses," attorney Mariah Gondeiro said.
“这些命令是违宪的，因为正如最高法院确认的那样，你不能把宗教服务与基本业务区别对待，”律师玛丽亚·冈戴罗(Mariah Gondeiro)说。
The county's order does not entirely ban religious services. From October to December, it placed a limit on capacity for indoor gatherings, and since Dec. 4, it has allowed outdoor religious services for up to 100 people, according to the county website.
该县的命令并没有完全禁止宗教活动。据该县网站称，从10月到12月，该县限制了室内集会的容量，从12月4日起，该县允许最多100人参加户外宗教活动。
