More than once, I hear an ad on the radio about good Christians coming together to help pay each other's medical bills and think to myself that is the very thing they hate so much.

But they get to choose whose medical bills get paid. They can make sure that only "good Christians deserving of Jesus' mercy" are the ones getting assistance. Not some stranger in the urban ghettos with children born out of wedlock, etc.

These are the people that will make the distinction between "drug addict" and "person with substance use disorder" based on demographics like race, socioeconomic status, and religion.

Uhhh no it’s not?

It’s literally a system where only Christians get benefits.

I’m also assuming one can be denied benefit if they were not a good enough Christian.

Some people consider the consent part of that arrangement to be key.
