Chuck Norris: Public health care would have killed Baby Jesus

In a column published at the conservative Human Events blog earlier this week, Norris suggested that if a government-run health care plan had existed in Bethlehem at the time of Jesus' birth, the shame of Mary's "out-of-wedlock" pregnancy would have pushed her into aborting her child. Norris wrote:

Lastly, as we near the eve of another Christmas, I wonder: What would have happened if Mother Mary had been covered by Obamacare? What if that young, poor and uninsured teenage woman had been provided the federal funds (via Obamacare) and facilities (via Planned Parenthood, etc.) to avoid the ridicule, ostracizing, persecution and possible stoning because of her out-of-wedlock pregnancy? Imagine all the great souls who could have been erased from history and the influence of mankind if their parents had been as progressive as Washington's wise men and women!

4. "the shame of Mary's "out-of-wedlock" pregnancy" is a religious right wing fanatic

point of view. Imagine all the great souls erased from history because of religion.

5. Why isn't he outraged by the fact that she would be stoned to death?

Something is very wrong with his logic.

11. Jesus wasn't born out of wedlock

Joseph and Mary were married.

6. Why anyone pays any attention to anything this crappy actor

says about anything is completely beyond me.

8. What if she was provided the funds "to avoid the ridicule, ostracizing..."?

You mean the ridicule and ostracizing, etc. against unwed teen mothers that came from and still comes from your ilk? Y'all would be calling her "slut" and "whore", just like you do all the other young women in her position. Whoever said this asshole has been kicked in the head too many times is vastly understating things.
