Sort of a side note but goes along with the theme of 0bamacare and religion....IIRC, Muslims are to be exempt from the mandates of 0bamacare, due to they do not believe in (having or paying for) insurance. Does anyone know if this is correct?
There is a whole slew of exemptions for muslims to the Amish/
The Amish do not carry health insurance. The government respects their principles. Christian Scientists want to heal by prayer alone, and the new health-care reform law respects that. Quakers and others object to killing even in wartime, and the government respects that principle for conscientious objectors. By its decision, the Obama administration has failed to show the same respect for the consciences of Catholics and others who object to treating pregnancy as a disease.
This latest erosion of our first freedom should make all Americans pause. When the government tampers with a freedom so fundamental to the life of our nation, one shudders to think what lies ahead.
