No matter what you think of the Catholic church or Birth Control
Submitted by palinda on Sun, 02/12/2012 - 12:11This is an assault on religious liberty and I am happy to say that many other faiths are behind the CC regarding this matter.
The heart of the matter, whether you believe in birth control or not, is whether the government can force a religious organization to provide a service that they do not espouse.
I have heard so many distractions from the crux of this matter, from women's rights, population control, all the advantages that birth control provides, clergy abuse, and downright hate of the catholic church. Understand, the church is not preventing or forcing anyyone in their employ from getting birth control from another source. They are not asking anyone to sign a statement that they will be fired if they find out they chose to use birth control.
Obama made a political "accommodation" to pass the cost onto the insurance company, problem is it is still forcing the church to provide a service that is against their teaching and this will still be a fight.
