Looking back

Update: The article cited by okyellowdog.com isn't recent. It's the same article I cited from a different source a year ago (compare both citations, below) The bill died in the Senate last year and as far I know, hasn't been reintroduced.

That said, these kinds of bills are gaining in popularity across the country. Backers try to conceal the fact that they target homosexuality as well as abortion, but the language is there if you read the text, critically. Of course, the General is very supportive of such rightous discrimination.

Here are a couple of posts from last April when this Michigan bill made its debut:



First, give no help

Dear Rep. Richardville,

Congratulations on the passage of your bill granting medical professionals the right to refuse treatment to homosexuals. I sincerely hope other states follow suit, because no doctor should be forced to treat a class of people they despise. Such coerced compassion is not only unchristian, it's un-American.

As much as I like the bill, I think you could have taken the concept a little further. There's a witnessing opportunity here that you missed.

People see doctors when they are medically distressed. We can use that to bring them the Gospel by refusing treatment until they accept Jesus into their hearts. If they're reluctant, the doctor could probe their unanesthetized wounds or "accidentally" drop his reflex mallet on their pounding heads until they succumb to the Holy Spirit's promptings.

It would be wrong, however, to limit such spiritually oriented treatment to only homosexuals. What about the people who helped you pass the bill, the Michigan Catholic Conference? There are many Christian doctors who believe that the Catholic Church is the Whore of Babylon . Shouldn't we give those doctors the right to refuse treatment until these agents of Satan are washed in the blood of Jesus?

We have the makings of a great follow-up bill here. I'd be glad to help in any way I can.

Heterosexually yours,

Gen. JC Christian, Patriot
