Obviously it DOES matter that Christ healed them and was immune Himself from infection. Your assertion that it does not matter is false.
Furthermore, St. Francis and Mother Theresa chose to work in that field. They did not spread deadly infections into uninfected populations murdering people nor increase the risk of doing so.
The only straw man here is your continuing false assertion that Christians must foist deadly disease upon uninfected populations or they are ungodly people. That's fallacious.
I haven't ignored your point that Christians are called to many diverse areas of ministry. I agree with that we are. However, leveraging the government to foist deadly diseases upon uninfected populations just isn't one of them.
No American citizen has the "right" to put the lives of other American citizens at risk of death by deadly disease. That's another false assertion you keep making.
And look, you're making false assertions about me again. I will continue to correct your wicked ad hominem whenever you choose to engage in the behavior.
I said, "He should have been given the best possible care IN AFRICA."
Reread my post since you're obviously blatantly misrepresenting what I said while interjecting lies you're fabricating into what I said:

"First, Jesus healed lepers meaning neither He nor they had leprosy any longer: Jesus did not contract leprosy and then spread it.
Secondly, there is an assumed risk inherent with leaving the states to go work with Ebola patients. The public never assumed that risk.
That risk is being forced upon them.
Thirdly, it's negligent homicide to transport infectious people into the U.S. who have a contagious disease with a 60%-90% mortality rate and no known cure if even one (1) person dies as a result. If it gets into the population and people begin dropping in waves then it's an unintentional form of democide (e.g. death by government).
I have no problem removing the flowery speech from the reality that it's stupid to import Ebola victims into the U.S. and if it costs Americans their lives then it's immoral and should be criminal for those responsible imo.
He should have been given the best possible care IN AFRICA."
^ That does not equate to your false assertion of "to hell with him." That's a lie you keep repeating which does not reflect well on your integrity.
It doesn't matter that Christ healed them. He called us to take care of them. St. Francis kissed the fingers and foreheads of lepers. St. Damien the Leper in the prime of his life agreed to be quarantined on an island of Lepers called Molokai. The Order of St. Benedict created the Houses of St. Giles for lepers. The lepresarium in Louisiana called Carville was founded by Christians seeking to help them. Mother Teresa took in those who were dying of influenza, typhoid, syphillis, and leprosy. So, your response truly is the straw man here. You ignored my point that we are called to go out and visit and care for the sick. Our country has the BEST hospitals in the world, with more technological advancements than anywhere else. His chance at survival leaped the moment he cross the border into his own homeland.
Also, you seem to be ignoring the fact that the man is an American citizen, and he has certain privileges. Those privileges include being taken care of by his own people, and if necessary to die among his own people. So, you truly are the one to say to hell with him, he might infect me. That is the reaction you are having. Its one of survival, however, not of mercy.
