    God's kingdom does not have sickness. Sickness or ill is that of satan. Adam and eve bit into the tree of knowledge, this is when God separated earth from the kingdom. Nobody deserves to be sick, for you to say that is what I think, is nothing more than political correctness. From my previous reply I can't even say political correctness, I don't know where you got that I think people deserve to be sick?

    True....
    However, no court can force any legislature to create and pass a bill, nor force an executive to sign a bill into law.

    Sick people fully deserve all the health care they can buy.
    They do not deserve any health care bought for them by me.

    No a law you can enforce not a right . If you were to deny me the right to read or learn how to read that would be denying my right to education. Thats where its a right , not when you force others to pay for your education.

    Nope. It is a right that must be free and appropriate. Sorry

    Exactly it must be free . That means that no one has to pay for it. In that sense its a right. Its a law when the government requires you to go to school and learn their approved curriculum and have others foot the bill. Two different things

    Nope. The same thing. SCOTUS was clear on the meaning of free being all costs are provided by the government.
