Perhaps one of you "born agains" can explain what there is in

Christianity that is against helping those who need it obtain health

care insurance.


Since when was Christianity supposed to deal with insurance?



Uh, I think you missed the point. Bachmann is using her simple-minded
religious beliefs to come out against health care coverage for those who
can't otherwise get it. The question should be, why is it relevant to
use your religious belief to keep health insurance away from others?
Why are Christians in this country so adamant about pushing their
beliefs onto others who believe differently? (Not that I believe
Bachmann has any beliefs, other than the "righteousness" of sounding
really stupid)
