A Catholic convert calls on his Church

[Amphora]

Health care for everyone!

I don't like how this sounds.

And the man who wants to make his point across thinks:

for the political focus for Catholics and evangelicals has been abortion

which no girl should be forced to have an abortion.

from the site

I did a news search in Google for “catholic” and “health care.” Here were the top headlines:

“Catholics Step Up Fight Against ‘Unacceptable’ Healthcare Bill”
“Catholic Bishops Tell House: Health-Care Bill is ‘Unacceptable’”
“Guard against a stealth mandate for abortion”

Here in the Uk we the healthcare system is fine.
My son has spent months in hospital I would be bankrupt if I was in America.

And I've had two abortions this week and I'm a man, they give em away like candy.

Can I post links yet?

I'm from the UK also, and although it very easy to critisise the government on, well lets face it pretty much everything. A nationalised health system even though it has its downsides is a good thing.

Unfortunately the system sometimes gets abused by those not "contributing". For example I worked with a Nigerian guy who had moved to the UK. An absolutely fantastic guy, very friendly and a great laugh.

He mentioned that his aunty was ill in Nigeria and as she couldnt afford health care at home, so he was flying her in to get her treated here in the UK. I do not wish ill health on anyone, but thats abusing the system and one of the reasons it suffers in the way it does.


....maybe this isnt the right place for my last rant?

To the original poster, what is the Catholica Health system all about, is this something in the USA?
