Since the enforcement part of OCare is a tax, they cannot tax the Catholic Church. Therefore, forcing Catholic hospitals to pay for insurance that includes abortions should be dead on the tax argument alone...

This is not entirely accurate. The Church is free from property taxes, but payroll, stipends, and liquidation of some assets are taxable.

Property taxes have never been collected by the federal government, have they? Churches do not have to pay taxes on their income as a non-profit tax exempt entity, IIRC.
