The new Obamacare legislation that was forced on unwilling Americans this week specifically mandates that we all purchase health insurance. That is, unless you don't believe in that sort of thing. That's right, the current health care bill contains a clause which exempts certain individuals form the requirements and penalties set forth in it.
" EXEMPTIONS FROM INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBILITY REQUIREMENTS.—In the case of an individual who is seeking an exemption certificate under section 1311(d)(4)(H) from any requirement or penalty imposed by section 5000A, the following information:
In the case of an individual seeking exemption based on the individual’s status as a member of an exempt religious sect or division, as a member of a health care sharing ministry, as an Indian, or as an individual eligible for a hardship exemption, such information as the Secretary shall prescribe."
Senate Bill, H.R. 3590, pages 273-274

I guess this is one way Obama can convince Americans that they should convert to Islam.
Muslims and Amish.
This makes the law discriminatory based on religious belief. This makes it unconstitutional.
Remember folks “There is no god but allah and mohammed is his prophet”
bingo, you get the t-shirt
I wish I were surprised.
I think it was unconstitutional long before this clause was brought to light.
Looks like an avenue that can be used to make this travesty as complex and difficult to implement as possible. We are ALL members of exempted classes and should file as such. And when they deny one claim file another using a different expempted class.
Well, I said paying for abortions was against my religion, so am I exempt?
Where do I sign up to pray 5 times a day and learn explosives? < /S >
Interesting. I wonder what all the muslim doctors here in the U.S. are going to do?
No...Christians are evil, and they’re gonna paid for all the horrible things they’ve done ;)
Okay, I am a Roman Catholic and abortion was, is, and forever will be against my faith.
Where do I go to get my exemption?
You got that WRONG!
The correct saying is:
“There is no god but Allah and Obama Hussein is his Prophet”
Becoming Muslim sure seems to be a whole lot easier than Amish and you get special priveledges at airport secrity too.
Please explain - I’m a little slow.
Where does it exempt Muslims?
Hahaha...silly Catholics, exemptions don’t apply to you.
Time to put a Yellow Post-It note over the front of my bible with the words “Core-Ann” written on it in sharpie, Time to buy a pup tent to wear over myself, and when ever anyone asks me about God I will say, I guess he is “All ‘uh Right?”.
It doesn’t say that explicitly, but muslims believe that insurance of any type is “haraam” (forbidden) because it is what they view as gambling. Therefore, muslims can claim exemption.
