all i get is an oops
Your links are not working.
bad link
Is this satire, that semi-satire site???? Not funny.
So that means they’ll be denied treatment, right? /s
But the terrorist bastards will still get the healthcare.
Apparently, this exemption will apply similarly to believers in Islam, which considers health insurance - and, for that matter, any form of risk insurance - to be haraam (forbidden).
Steve Gilbert of Sweetness & Light calls our attention to the probability that Muslims will also be expempt. According to a March 23 publication on an authoritative Islamic Web site managed by Sheikh Muhammed Salih Al-Munajjid, various fatwas (religious decrees) absolutely forbid Muslim participation in any sort of health care or other risk insurance:
Health insurance is haraam like other types of commercial insurance, because it is based on ambiguity, gambling and riba (usury). This is what is stated in fatwas by the senior scholars.
In Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa'imah (15/277) there is a quotation of a statement of the Council of Senior Scholars concerning the prohibition on insurance and why it is haraam:
It says in Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa'imah (15/251):
Firstly: Commercial insurance of all types is haraam because it involves ambiguity, riba, uncertainty, gambling and consuming people's wealth unlawfully, and other shar'ireservations.
Secondly: It is not permissible for the Muslim to get involved with insurance companies by working in administration or otherwise, because working in them comes under the heading of cooperating in sin and transgression, and Allaah forbids that as He says: "but do not help one another in sin and transgression. And fear Allaah. Verily, Allaah is Severe in punishment"
[al-Maa'idah 5:2]. End quote.
And Allaah knows best.
Fix the link.
This provision was intentionally inserted by Chuck Schumer. It also applies to Amish and supposedly any religious organization that doesn’t believe in insurance. I’ll be looking for a local church that qualifies.
This is also at Hotair and Michelle Malkin
How strange this ,SO FAR, only applies to Amish in New York.
Guess this will have to be amended too
If the GOp was smart they’d add it as am amendment to the House recon bill the Senate is voting on.
Any change to this will force it back to the house.
My new name is Muhammed al Mustaafa.
Now try to fine me, Mr. IRS!
Believers in the constitution shouldn’t have to pay either.
So I guess I’ll have to go out and buy a burqua, or whatever the hell those rags are called.
Hmmmmmm...they didn’t bring boatloads of cash with them from Somalia, yet I see many women burkas at the clinic everytime I go. At this clinic it costs a MINIMUM of $8,500 for pre-natal care, delivery and hospital stay. Since they average over 6 children per family, how are they paying for it???!!!
BS - under equal protection there should be no exemptions. This is discrimination.
I was going to become Amish but I think going Muslim is a lot easier. My new name is Abu Bin Said Mustapha Bin Shariff
If this is true - we have to get Drudge to get it up on the Drudge Report plus Rush and Savage.
The fedgov cannot make a law privileging one religion over another. Period.
