I am appalled when I read stories of the unrelieved suffering of Americans who are not fortunate enough to have adequate medical coverage.
Basic health care is a fundamental human right. How can the richest nation on earth consider itself a Christian nation when hardworking Americans are denied relief of their suffering?
The American for-profit health care system was spawned in greedy capitalist hearts - the love of Christ constrains men to care for the suffering, not to profit from their pain.
If President Bush has received the Baptism of the Holy Ghost, the suffering members of this forum, who are denied the dignity that more well-to-do Americans offer their pets, will be the first to know about it.

MapleLeaf,
BTW Dan Scott is alluding to this kind of socialist ........ also. The day Christianity is equated to helping those who are too lazy to help themselves is a sad day.
I don't find anywhere in the Bible or the United States Constitution that says it is the Federal Governments responsibility to take care of us from cradle to grave.
The Bible talks a lot about the church helping people but I don't see where it dictates the government be our mommy and daddy.
