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
There are several reasons why an individual could claim exemption, being a member of a religion that does not believe in insurance is one of them. Islam is one of those religions. Muslims believe that health insurance is “haraam”, or forbidden; because they liken the ambiguity and probability of insurance to gambling. This belief excludes them from any of the requirements, mandates, or penalties set forth in the bill. Other excluded groups include Amish, American Indians, and Christian Scientists.

Obamacare -— one big scheme to force America to convert to -islamism ? (Otherwise, prepare to pay obamacare’s 21 new taxes — and face obamacare’s “death panels”). Sorry about that, just a bad dream induced by my Obamacare-exempted “fast food” hamburger yesterday. Pay this no mind.

Lemme get this straight. A library which puts a nativity scene on its front lawn is a “law regarding the establishment of religion” but a Federal statute that specificlly gives certain benefits based solely on religion and denied to other religions isn’t? Why should we have any moral obligation to obey such a corrput and repressive government?
Hardees is 100% Angus beef, even their “cheap” burgers. I head to Whataburger for their Justaburger w/onions, pickles and mustard when I’m near one. Have a Popeye’s Chicken nearby so go there once in awhile. Did you know that Wendy’s took over the #2 spot several years ago so that BurgerKing is now in third place of burger joints?

not that I need an exemption, for now anyway, but I'll do almost anything to thwart this farce...
So if we start a muslim cult called Don’t Tread on Me, Sandrats, we can all join and earn an exemption.
Cool. I want to run a muslim dating site where we exchange grenades and RPGs.
If Barry gets a second term, which year will the Konzentrationslagers open? I'm trying to figure out my ultimate demise.
Trying to reserve the better gruel and nicer KZ-Baracken?
After touring Dauchau last Summer - based on the last few months of the Soetoro Regime - I feel like us Conservatives are already close to the gate with the RINOs saying everything will work out fine.
Muslims don’t need an extension. They can just not have insurance and pay the penalty tax.
