"Good Heavens -- It's Not Health Insurance! Is it?"

    Health insurance is regulated by the government.  Freedom of religion is not so regulated.  A current New York Times news article raises an interesting question:  When do earthly activities make something health insurance, or make it heavenly.  Whatever the outcome in any one of these particular situations, the Insurance issue is just one issue involved.  The major issues are announced in the headlines of the news article:  "A Business Under God's Law, Church Mission Operates Beyond the Reach of Regulators" by Diana B. Henriques, page C1, column 2 (New York Times Nat'l Ed. October 20, 2006).  Here is a link for public access to it online:  Diana B. Henriques, "A Business Under God's Law ...." (New York Times October 20, 2006).
