The Healthcare Bill - From a Biblical Perspective

Ok, so that title might be a bit too dramatic for what I am about to post. But I was thinking today.

So, the law was given to the national of Israel by God in the Pentateuch of the Bible. The law is quite complex, and involves different rules for sacrifices, house building, punishment for stealing, etc. And the purpose of this law was to show those who were part of Israel's nation that they needed God, and could not live up to perfect standards without God. In fact, the law is impossible to keep. Why? Because we are humans. And the thing about this law is that I have personally read right through the law several times, and am pretty darn sure that I would have a hard time following it and keeping it, even though it is readable. Although, I have found it to be less-than-exciting. If I had to pick a book of the Bible to be reading at this very moment, it would not be from the law.

So, now we move on to the healthcare "law".

This "law" is a 2,700 page monstrosity. Explain to me how we are supposed to follow this law, which nobody has even read all the way through, when the Israelites were not even capable of keeping the law that God gave them in the Old Testament? And the Pentateuch is readable!! Trying reading the healthcare law. I tried once. I made it about 4 pages. As Rush Limbaugh said, "It's impossible for the average American to know how to comply with this law and not be in breach of it."

Yeah. It isn't possible. Nobody will even be able to enforce it because nobody even knows what it says.

Let's just sit and ponder how truly ridiculous this law is. And then we can all call our legislator's and tell them to overturn this horrid, joke of a "law".
