“If you’re sick and your next-door neighbor is sick, but you can see a doctor and he or she can’t, that isn’t how God intended it to be,” Blagojevich said from the front steps of the Fourth Presbyterian Church, where he attended morning services with his wife and two young daughters. “Everyone — everyone — should have access to affordable, quality healthcare.”

I do think it is a moral imperative to provide universal health care and that is informed by my religious faith, but I can make the argument without invoking Jesus or God.  And I do.   Because of the comparison above.
