Will the Catholic Church Get Its Day in The Supreme Court?
Anger | Now | Me

Posted on 11/06/2012 9:29:26 PM PST by ExxonPatrolUs

Will Obama, the Constitutional Law Professor throw the Catholic Church a bone and propose a religious liberty exemption to Obamacare for all who want it? If not, will 50% of the country evade taxes?

I sure hope the Catholic church and others get their day BEFORE Obama loads up the US Supreme court with his picks!

The Catholic Church already got their way.

A Catholic validated Obamacare.

WTF more do the papists want?

You mean Roberts? Roberts isn't the church anymore than I am. Plenty of Catholics are as heartsick and angry tonight as you are ... me, for instance. So why are you insulting all of us indiscriminately?

Here is a prediction for you. How are you going to evade taxes when you will have a number attached to your person? In order to work or live, you will need that number to do anything.

THAT, is what is coming and they will use the excuse of internet theft to do it.

He now will have the SCOTUS to back him. Just a matter of time. A few executive orders and Adolf Hitler is reborn.

A black man with a fabricated past and the absolute WORST track record in all of American politics just got re-elected President. His narcissistic self will have been validated by the American people (mostly through fraudulent votes, but nonetheless); Let the death panels begin. And those of us who aren't left to die 'Benghazi style' will be shackled and sent to detention camps.

No one has ANY idea the scope and magnitude of 0bama's win tonight. This is one small step for IGNORANT FEMALES, one GIANT LEAP FOR THE FINAL ASSAULT ON OUR REPUBLIC!!

no, the church (Catholic and Protestant) will not get a day in Supreme Court. O and his cronies will make sure of that.

O will continue to transform this country to the secularist and hedonist nation that he and his handlers and followers want.

Lady Liberty is crying tonite...

If the issue that the Church claims should exempt them and their charities and hospitals really were a cannon of Catholic faith, and if they had actually made their position unequivocal on the issue rather than trying to have their cake (socialized medicine) and eat it to (but be exempted from the abortion and contraception issues they didn’t like) then Roberts wouldn’t have contorted himself and the case law to uphold Obamacare.

However, the record is pretty clear: The Church has been trying to walk both sides of this issue. They want “access to healthcare” (translation: They want their poor slobs’ medical bills to be paid by taxpayers) and so they backed Obamacare, but then held out for the Stupak Amendment to cover their “faith based” objections to providing abortion and contraception. If the issue had been truly important, they would have said “No. No amendments, no little changes around the edges, we’re against the whole thing.”

Even when the law was upheld and it looked as tho they’re going to have to hew to the abortion and contraception mandates, they want to play both sides of the street:

As it is, the Supreme Court is controlled by Catholics and Jews and neither group has a good track record in history of truly upholding individual rights. The US founding was a result of a happy accidental result of the Scottish Enlightenment and the philosophies that came forward out of that period and group of people - Protestant, but perceiving that a tolerance of other religions would be both just and sane, that a man was entitled to the sweat of his brow and that there were certain rights that all men could and should lay claim to. There were only two Catholics involved at the Constitutional Convention of 1787, and the results of that convention were clearly the result of the influence of Protestants who remembered what it was like to live in Europe where the Catholic church was the big power behind the thrones.

I remember what this country was like before we were overrun with Catholics in public office, in particular clowns like Teddy Kennedy. The epistemology of the Catholic church is pro-welfare, pro-socialized medicine, and for enforced redistribution of wealth. Always has been. That’s why my ancestors left Europe hundreds of years ago.

Being a female, you are correct about the ignorant female. But men are just as bad when it comes to immorality. Which nations are the most religious today?

Think God will allow us to murder 3000 unborn a day by dismemberment, etc, and not exact an eye for an eye, or how about a leg for a leg, an arm for an arm, all made possible by...the weapon of terrorist choice——

THE IED. Coincidence? NO.

The Catholic Bishops couild have been a major influence in the election but weren’t with their pastoral letter which was a snore. They will pay for this as well as Catholics of deep faith who trusted them in defenmce of faith instead they played both side of the street. Either by the faith they claim can send you to hell .
