Long ago I read that, just like Romneycare in Massachusetts, the seat of Christian Science, that in OBAMACARE, all Christian Scientists are EXCEMPT, they do not *have* to buy insurance, they do not have to participate in ANY part of Obamacare, just like how in Romneycare, all Christian Scientists are 100% excempt.

Do you know anything about this?

What other religious groups do not HAVE to participate in Obamacare or Mitt-care?

For instance, is there one of those waivers for 'new age' faith healers?

There are groups...like the Mennonites which are exempted from ObamaCare.

Having grown up around the Mennonites...typically, they only take extremely serious cases to a clinic to be examined, and they pay cash. And no, they wouldn’t be signing up for heart transplants or any truly expensive procedures. The other side of this story is that they all eat healthy, do physical labor, and avoid alcohol, drugs, booze or activities which would be considered dangerous.

Christian science as a fundamental doctrine the rejection of medicine and medical practice. As a gnostically inclined cult - they believe the material doesn’t exist (and is bad) and any ‘illness’ is the result of spiritual issues.
