OBAMA VS. CATHOLICS NOW BEING FOUGHT IN THE MILITARY

MESSAGE FROM POPE-A-DOTUS:

HELLO AMERICAN CATHOLICS AND CHRISTIANS EVERYWHERE! You may no longer make decisions based on your conscience or religious beliefs at work or at home. In fact you're no longer allowed to have a conscience. I've arranged for the words conscience, discrimination, accountability, right and wrong to be expunged from all dictionaries everywhere. This will be done during the next Congressional recess and will not be subject to reversal. You are wise to remember, it's either MY WAY or the HIGHWAY. I rule by presidential and administrative fiat and don't you forget it!  I don't care about your silly outrage either. It's time to forget your conscience.

FROM HERITAGE'S MEMBER BRIEFING TODAY:

Religious employers should be exempt from having to provide health care coverage for contraception, abortifacients and sterilization out of respect for the religious freedom protected by the First Amendment, Heritage Foundation Vice President David Addington says,

“The Obama Administration should immediately exempt such religious employers from the contraception mandate,” he writes on Heritage’s blog, The Foundry, “The Administration’s trampling upon religious liberty with the contraception mandate illustrates yet again the need to repeal the Obamacare statute.”

Under Obamacare, religiously-based institutions are mandated to provide coverage for these services even if their religious beliefs forbid it.

The First Amendment of the Constitution clearly states, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.”

But the Obama administration has glossed over this fundamental freedom and has imposed an obligation upon those institutions wishing to exercise this right.


I simply cannot believe such a mandate is constitutional. I just can't.
