@Malcadon - If anything, the Progressive Movement is working to improve understanding science and health issues. I don't think any divine forces are influencing this ... and I say that as a former Protestant Sunday School teacher. What they believed in the time of the Black Death is far more in line with limited scientific knowledge and personal freedom from authority figures that wanted to reinforce their own power. We should be glad we don't have that sort of circumstances these days.
