Dhimmitude, an email I received today

[fl_dem]

I received this today from a friend who finally got tired of me fact checking and debunking her right wing emails. She sent me this one to check out for legitimacy BEFORE she bcc’d it all over Oklahoma.

My people perish for a lack of knowledge! Who knew and how do you stop it? There is so much more going on behind the scenes we know not of. I think Obama is creating a monster bigger than he is...and it's not beyond biting it's master! Careful, Mr. President!

Dhimmitude - Interesting

I had never heard the word until now---Type it into Google and start reading.Pretty interesting.
Word of the Day: Dhimmitude

Dhimmitude is the Muslim system of controlling non-muslim populations conquered through jihad. Specifically, it is the TAXING of non-muslims in exchange for tolerating their presence AND as a coercive means of converting conquered remnants to islam.
The ObamaCare bill is the establishment of Dhimmitude and Sharia muslim diktat in the United States.

Muslims are specifically exempted from the government mandate to purchase insurance, and also from the penalty tax for being uninsured. Islam considers insurance to be "gambling", "risk-taking" and "usury" and is thus banned. Muslims are specifically granted exemption based on this. How convenient. So I, Ann Barnhardt, a Christian, will have crippling IRS liens placed against all of my assets, including real estate, cattle, and even accounts receivables, and will face hard prison time because I refuse to buy insurance or pay the penalty tax. Meanwhile, Louis Farrakhan will have no such penalty and will have 100% of his health needs paid for by the de facto government insurance. Non-muslims will be paying a tax to subsidize muslims. Period.

This is Dhimmitude. Dhimmitude serves two purposes: it enriches the muslim masters AND serves to drive conversions to islam. In this case, the incentive to convert to islam will be taken up by those in the inner-cities as well as the godless Generation X, Y and Z types who have no moral anchor. If you don't believe in Christ to begin with, it is no problem whatsoever to sell Him for 30 pieces of silver. "Sure, I'll be a muslim if it means free health insurance and no taxes. Where do I sign, bro?"
I recommend sending this post to your contacts. This is desperately important and people need to know about it - quickly.

My response:

Very interesting, though what that email leaves out is that the Amish, Scientologist and Christian Scientist COULD I say that lightly, could be exempt right along with the Muslims…

The fact is that the “Patient Protection and Affordability Care Act” (PPACA) passed by congress and signed into law by President Obama does NOT INCLUDE language which specifically exempts members of any particular religion from health insurance requirements. It includes a general “religious conscience” provision which MAY exempt some American from health insurance requirements if they are members of religions which have established conscientious to certain forms of insurance.

Its called the Religious Conscience Exemption, this link explains more. But like it says at the bottom of the page the Health Insurance Mandate Provision of PPACA doesn’t kick in until 2014, and between then and now many changes will likely be launched regarding who might be exempt.

I never knew such an exemption existed, and I am not fond of being schooled by a right winger...how did I not know this? (rhetorical question, no need to answer).
