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)




You're statement that I was replying to was:




"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. "




Now that you mentioned it though, why do you feel so adamant about pushing your political beliefs onto others who believe differently?






I'm not pushing anything. My political beliefs do not prevent anyone

from obtaining coverage under the ACA.


sure you are.

that would be like after a street sermon, a preacher or religious leader saying "I'm not pushing anything. My religious beliefs do not force anyone from or into accepting a religious faith"

But, if you really feel like you're not pushing any political thing, then why is it at almost every thread you make is swelled with it?
