Catholic Hospitals Refuses to Compromise on Birth Control

"Mother Church" really demands that it be only for mothers.

http://www.care2.com/causes/catholic-hospitals-reject-compromise-on-birth-control.html

WASHINGTON (AP) — The nation’s Catholic hospitals are rejecting President Barack Obama’s compromise for providing birth control coverage to their women employees.

In a letter Friday to the government, the Catholic Health Association says the administration’s proposal to have insurers bear the cost would be “unduly cumbersome” and “unlikely to adequately meet the religious liberty concerns” of its members.

The hospital group was a key ally of Obama’s in the battle to win congressional approval of his health care overhaul, defying the opposition of church bishops. But it does not believe church-affiliated employers should have to provide birth control as a free preventive service, as the law requires.

The letter says the government should either broaden an exemption for religious employers, or pay directly for the birth control coverage.

Damn racist Catholics not doing the bidding of the black man. They must be threatened by his dick too.

2. They're directly defying presidential orders. Time to make 'em pay.

Where does 0bama have the authority to dictate this? Let the Catholics take this to court and see if Barry Big Ears has the authority to do this.


I'm so sick of this president thinking he has the power to do whatever he wants.

Compromise is just the camels nose. Always has been.
Look where it got us.
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

Dissent sure became the worst thing in the history of the world when an affirmative action fascist became preezy didn't it?

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

As a Catholic ITA with this, and if anything, if they ever caved in on this? I'd have to find a Traditional Sect of Catholicism to practice my Religion. It doesn't look like the Church will cave though, thank God!

You know what? you're a fool. The Catholic Church does so damn much for those that need help, you should be down on your damn hands and knees thanking the Church, thanking all Churches that help so many in need.

I think that this is provoking a significant shift in the American Catholic Church. The current article relates to those who strongly supported Obamacare, these are not from the (rapidly growing) conservative wing of the Church; we've also seen strong statements from those whom I would have previously considered to by moonbat leftists like Cardinal Mahoney.

Of course, for an alternative view, the DUmp's "Catholic and Orthodox Group" is a good source of amusement.

Doing what Americans do to collectivist trash since 1776.



Come and ****in' take it, DUmbass.
"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

Uh huh.

The Roman Catholic Church is the oldest, most continuous, uninterrupted formal institution in the world today, and has been for.....centuries.

I dare anyone to name a formal institution, religion-based or not, that's older.

If it were irrelevant, it would've gone into the dustbin of history a long time ago.

One may not care for the Roman Catholic Church, and that's okay, that's cool, but it's best to at least acknowledge its influence and power and appeal to so many others.

Idiots are just turning children into soon to become angry adults.    Good job to strengthen the kids resolve to SYG and later in life fight back.

Crazy folks, the Church bombings of black churches united the comunity of all faiths, made them Stronger in the long run.   

Now I have to ask, is the FBI involved as to a hate attack ????   Where is Obama and Al and Jessie to decree the assult on the Black Catholics ?

Sorry but the Latinos that come here are Catholic as are many Asians.   Could this become a religious war between the Black Muslims and the Catholics of all races funded by the Middle Eastern Muslim Sect.???

This may have nothing to do with abortion it may just be putting out feelers on how far the Muslim faith can go and get away with it.    Misdirection, smoke and mirrors.
