In the words of God
'Thou shalt love thy fellow man as much as thyself.'

But if hes sick, kick him to the curb and let him die.

You know after watching that Repiglican debate tonight, i thought it was just a funny side show. Until the scenario of if a 30 year old is sick and needs 6 months of treatment. Should society let him die? And the response from that fucking crowd...YES! And YEAH!!

Remember this you sick freaks...God is listening and knows what you said, and when you die, he will remind you of this and how you would let your fellow man die. You call yourselves such patriotic Christians. No...Your false Christians and patriots.

One more thing. If your sick and uninsured, remember karma really sucks when its you.

1. Aside from all the moral reasons, it's ridiculous when someone says...
"We can't afford it"
Yeah right, but we can afford to waste billions and put up with massive fraud in everything from war-weapons to health programs. (Companies)

3. Ahhh, but that is the key...
"passionate" as opposed to "compassionate", don't you think?

7. Operative word there is "claim"
Personally I believe there is an inverse square relationship between how much one goes around proclaiming that they are one and how much of one they actually are.

11. I always say if you have to proclaim you are something, then it is not evident
that you are what you are proclaiming to be.

Fake people doing fake deeds.

10. The Gospel of Matthew is quite explicit in this regard:
If there is a heavan like rightwingers believe, they're going to be surprised, according to Matthew.

In this Gospel, Jesus makes a distinction between how his true followers will treat "the least of these, my brothers and sisters" and how his false followers will treat them:


31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.

34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’

40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’

44 “They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’

45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’

46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”

12. 1 John 4:20 - Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar.
1 John 4:20
New International Version (NIV)
20 Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen.
