During a recent campaign event, Texas Democrat senate candidate James Talarico used the Bible to justify the idea of a government-run healthcare system.
This is what Talarico always does. He uses Christianity to justify left wing political policy. It’s the only time he ever discusses his faith.
You will also notice that when talking about this plan, he says that they must finish what Obama started, which is an admission that Obamacare was meant to be a Trojan Horse for government-run healthcare.
Breitbart News reports:
Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico said Scripture requires the government to guarantee health coverage, telling a Texas church crowd that the New Testament makes a public health insurance option a Christian obligation.
Talarico made the argument at a town hall he held at a DeSoto church on July 20, footage of which his campaign posted Saturday under the title “James Talarico Unveils Plan For Black Voters.” The Austin Democrat argued the country should “finish the work of President Obama” and pass a public option, then grounded the pitch in the Gospels.
“Because health care is a human right. It is not a privilege,” Talarico said.
Talarico told the crowd he wanted to speak scripturally, given the setting, and pointed to how Jesus spent his ministry.
“If you read our scriptures, if you read the New Testament, what does Jesus spend most of his time doing? It’s not preaching, it’s not teaching, it is healing. Healing the sick,” Talarico said. “And in Matthew 25, scripture says that’s how we will be judged and how we will be saved. By healing the sick, by feeding the hungry, by welcoming the stranger, by visiting the prisoner.”

He does this same routine every single time, without fail.
In his world, Christianity is nothing more than a justification for far left policies. It’s a sickening perversion of faith. He just uses it for politics.
