Last edited Sat Dec 20, 2014, 09:21 AM - Edit history (1)
The former Navy chaplain was commenting on a Fox News poll that showed 58 percent of respondents wanted to repeal Obamacare, reported Right Wing Watch.
We ought to look to the Lord for our health care, Klingenschmitt said during his PIJN News program.
Klingenshit is German for Dingleberry

(6,913 posts)He thinks prayer is the answer. Would he sign an agreement never to visit a hospital, no matter what?

(39,215 posts)theology lessons involved how God gives help to the needy. In this lesson when God hears your prayer God brings that help through people. That is a doctor if you are sick. Their god does not seem to be able to find people willing to help others.
Fundies also limit the help to that given by the private sector and not by the government. Their god is so small.

(65,616 posts)Could he point out where it says that in the Bible?
Yeah I know he can't...how do these idiots keep from flying off the planet?
James 5:15, James 5:13-16, 2 Corinthians 12: 7-10, Luke 8:50, Acts 19:11-12, Matthew 9:27-31, Deuteronomy 28:1-68, Matthew 17:14-20, Luke 7:11-17, Mark 16:17-18, Matthew 8:1-4, Matthew 8:2, Isaiah 35:5-6, John 3:16, Luke 7:1-10, Jonah 2:4-10, Philippians 2:25-30, Acts 19:12, Acts 5:16, Psalm 107:20, Exodus 15:26, Matthew 4:23-24, Matthew 15:29-31, Mark 7:31-37, et all.
So needless to say it's a frequent theme in the bible, which given it's lack of efficacy seems to be rather telling, however my personal favorite is 1 Timothy 5:23.

(6,913 posts)Many of our presidents are of English and Germanic descent because many of the early citizens of this country came from those places.

(14,691 posts)Military-Industrial-Complex. I wouldn't call him a RWer just because of a Germanic surname. That's a pretty broad brush you're using.
Monk06
(7,675 posts)Bay of Pigs op was also hatched under his watch.
He was a strong general but a weak president. His warning against the Military Industrial Complex is also an admission that he was helpless to stop it. Otherwise he would not have issued the warning on the eve of his retirement from office.
Eisenhower gave us Elvis. The Kennedys gave us Jimi Hendrix and Woodstock
