Re Muslims exempt from Obamacare, it seems as though they are not explicitly exempted.

From Forbes:

Your “sect” has to have been in continuous existence since December 31, 1950, and the Commissioner of Social Security must agree that your sect “has the established tenets or teachings” consistent with opposition to medical benefits. While there are some on the Internet who believe that this religious exemption applies to Islam, it doesn’t appear that way to me, as Muslims are not exempt from Social Security. Instead, the exemption is meant for groups like the Amish.

--- end of snip ---

The bottom line is that it all depends on how some regulator interprets the ACA rules.

Wonder if the hero of Benghazi has ruled on this? Peace be upon him!
