The Obama Administration is using the "preventative care" mandates of the 2010
Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act to force religious people to provide morally objectionable contraceptive, abortifacients, and sterilization procedures in direct contradiction of the tenets of their faiths.
Perhaps it's time to review what Preventative Care is and isn't.
The National Library of
Science defines Preventative Care as referring to "measures taken to
prevent diseases,(or injuries) rather than curing them or treating their symptoms."
Let me simplify this a bit for you:
 |
| This is a disease (Cholera) |
|
|
|
|
 |
| This is not a disease. |
 |
| This is a disease (Measles) |
 |
| This is not a disease. |
|
|
|
 |
| This is a disease (Small Pox) |
|
|
 |
| This is not a disease. |
|
|
 |
| This is Preventative Care |
|
|
This is NOT!
Agree? Why not pass it on? Click the Facebook "F" or Twitter "T". Thanks!

I love this picture edition for those who don't like to read a lot.
Oh I prayed for your daughter while you await more appointments with doctors. I hope her swollen knee is better and that she never has another swollen joint in her life.

Is that baby in the bear suit yours?
What an adorable picture! The sweetness just jumps out of the computer screen.
Lena (again)
So reasonably and rationally TRUE. Thank you!!
Preach it, girl! Preach it!
Lena - That is not my sweet baby, but if he wanted to move here we wouldn't say no.
Wow! I think I needed a picture illustration on my blog! I know a Catholic at church who doesn't get it and an old aquaintance from high school who didn't get it. I may have to copy your idea! Love it! As my son tells me, "Do you always have to make my look bad?" ;-)

Thank you and AMEN.
