"Mormons are told to have 2 years food supply in case of societal meltdown. Guessing they have the guns to make sure their 2 year supply isn’t robbed by those that didn’t plan ahead?"

Yep. I've worked with them and had them as neighbors. They're not averted to self-defense. Their neighbors plan ahead, too, BTW, so they don't have the typical confused YUPPIE suburb problem.

Hmmmmm.......
If memory serves the Amish are a more orthodox division of the Mennonites......
To my knowledge the Mennonites have certain modern appliances such as refrigerators, etc.
So......
Why not style ourselves as "Progressive Amish Mennonites".....
(Heck, the Libs will have to love us simply because we use the word "Progressive")
Additionally, we continue to attend the church of our choice as a part of our "Missionary Outreach Program".
However we refuse govt medical care as it is against out religion.

Anyone think that might work?

I would change the ‘I’ habe to Ich habe... I’m sure you already knew that. Probably just a typo. Just being a typical witty, ego puncturing, nitpicking freeper. If you can’t take the heat stay out of the Kitchen. Brush up on that sense of humor too. Auf wiedersehen, Gott segne dich.

According to information on their website, the organizations like Christian Care Medi Share are also covered under an exemption within the Senate version of the healthcare bill.

If that is the case, I would urge Christians all over the country to join organizations like them. If the govt. can’t collect taxes in the form of fines from you and can’t mandate how much you are required to pay, maybe a two tiered system will develop. The bloated govt. system will eventually fall of it own weight and the Christian system will flourish.

I know American Indians already screwed over by IHS, but are they exempt from this too?

There's already a virus named after the Amish.

Has anyone ever seen any obese Amish?

They eat all the comfort food but burn off all the calories because they work so hard to put it on the table.....

Great food and no health club fees.....

Republicans already sit around doing nothing(the politicians I mean)for the most part. Why would we want to join a cult that doesn’t even believe in fighting back at all? I am making sure my ammo increases, and just when it looked like we could get ammo again, I bet the sales increase again, along with firearms sales. This sh** isn’t over yet.

“Freepers have to band together and get a group discount for joining. We must be modest in dress and computers. It’s like joining an Indian tribe except they speak Germanic lingo, are Amish, and have no casinos “

You don’t want to sit next to them either. They don’t believe in deodorant.
