Confirming again the First Law of Religious Organizations: The doctrine of any revisionist religious sect is indistinguishable from left-wing political dogma.

Anyone who thinks that the cost of healthcare will be reduced by taxing insurance companies, health care providers and consumers, and creating a huge new federal bureaucracy, must be a Democrat on crack. Or an Episcopalian. But I repeat myself.

When can we expect people to start screaming about “separation of church and state”?

“Passage of this bill will mark the beginning of the effort to guarantee the assurance of affordable, quality health care coverage and peace of mind to American families, providing them with better care while costing them less,”

I think we need to block out some time to schedule a moment to ponder this beginning of the effort to guarantee the assurance of health care. You don’t want to jump into beginning an effort to guarantee an assurance of anything without proper forethought.

“Confirming again the First Law of Religious Organizations: The doctrine of any revisionist religious sect is indistinguishable from left-wing political dogma.”

Actually, it’s a special case of somebody else’s law: any organization not explicitly right-wing will become left-wing.

Ed the Roman–That’s O’Sullivan’s law, formulated by a former editor of National Review. It’s a cousin to Neuhaus’s Law: Where orthodoxy is made optional, sooner or later, orthodoxy will be proscribed.

All I know is that just about any version of the Bible you can name is shorter than NannerMcBotoxCare and the Bible is merely the Word of the Living God.

And apparently the administration is just getting ramped up:

LOL… It’s amusing that they believe the Episcopal Public Policy Network has any political influence whatsoever.

The Episcopal Organization: The Democrat Party at Prayer.

So, they’re concerned about “affordable health care”. But it’s OK to provide pre-emptive death care for the unborn.

The day that TEC shows respect for the unborn is the day I’ll at least *consider* anything else they say on social issues. Until then – “La la la, I can’t hear you…….”

This is why no money should ever go in an Episcopal offering plate. It funds insanity.

Amen, Katherine.

Welcome to the Episcopalian/Do Gooddie Paradise on earth!!!. It is a variation of the ‘Robbing’ Hood philosophy: steal from those who work hard and give freely to those who are members of the “you owe me victimhood” sitting on their behind and protecting their hands from getting any work callouses, and never paid a penny in tax in their entire lives..

P.S. Does anyone still remember that demented black women on the night of Obama’s election who declared that henceforth she won’t have to pay for her mortgage any more or her petrol etc etc!! Who the hell did she think was going to pay for it? Stupid question: Obama and the Demoncrats in Congress, of course. Where are they getting their money from? Who cares!!!

LaVallette: “Who the hell did she think was going to
pay for it?” Why, YOU, of course. And ME. And our host on this site. And the woman down the block from you who owns her own business. And the hard-working farmer who lives a few miles outside of town. Why, Land O’ Goshen, LaVallette, there’s all kindsa folks available to “pay for it.” Welcome to ObamaLand.

Katherine,
“This is why no money should ever go in an Episcopal offering plate. It funds insanity.” I only wish it funded insanity. I think this is malice in the first degree.

Better yet, this is why no money should go to pay for Democratic Representatives and Senators. They have all gone around the bend to see who can be the first to bankrupt every working man and woman in this country.

Late last night, the Democrat party gave all of us who oppose this particular version of health care reform the collective finger.

We have a long, high-stakes battle ahead in the Senate to stop this liberal-agenda-gone wild bill from becoming law.

Because abortion is the least of the worries. How badly do you think the we-hate-Catholic-teaching-on-contraception crowd will be itching to force contraception on families who have more than 1 or 2 kids?

The possible avenues for personal privacy encroachment are tremendous; but I guess so long as Congress doesn’t outlaw promiscuous sex the Episcopal leadership is okay with whatever crap they force on us.
