Brass Balls Time: A Question for Religious Conservatives

Is it immoral to allow American citizens to die and/or be financially ruined because they cannot afford healthcare?

I think everyone who considers themselves a liberal should ask this question daily. As an unapologetic atheist and secularist you bet your ass I find it immoral to allow American citizens to die solely because they cannot afford healthcare. Where is the religious right on this issue? Because I cannot hear them over the deafening silence.

Why don't you ask it on a forum where you might get an answer? At DU it's rhetorical.

Seriously. Plunk it down on a RW website and report back to DU on your response.

Let us know. I suspect, however, they will find SOME way to "morally" justify it. Remember, they are anti-choice, NOT "pro-life" in any real sense of the phrase. And their understanding of Jesus and his teachings are drastically different than what seems to be in the NT.
