About That "Wall of Separation"...

The Amish, as well as some other religious sects, are covered by a "religious conscience" exemption, which allows people with religious objections to insurance to opt out of the mandate. It is in both the House and Senate versions of the bill, making its appearance in the final version routine unless there are last-minute objections. [More]
What happened to that "wall of separation" those pushing for national fascist health care are always screaming about?

And what happened to "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion..."

If I maintain Father Crom on his mountain told me in a vision I should be glad to die a warrior's death instead, who are they to tell me they don't recognize the legitimacy of my faith?

So we're really not equal under the law? And if I "willfully" opt out, I can become a "prohibited person"?

Do we have a First Amendment challenge here...?

  1. Some food conglomerate was peddling its zero-trans-fat margarine by holding up Denmark as the paragon of health and caring for its people. Like New York City under Bloomberg, Denmark has totally outlawed trans fat. You can't eat unhealthily even if you want to;it makes everyone's socialized-medicine costs go up, you see. It's all the government's money, you see, and they don't like wasting it on the peons.
    We're SO CLOSE...
