ACLU Demands Catholic Bishops Provide Abortions for Illegal Minors
Breitbart.com ^ | 2015-04-10 | Dr. Susan Berry

Religious groups such as the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) are the target of an imminent ACLU lawsuit that hopes to order the federal government to release information about how the groups are awarded government funding contracts to assist illegal unaccompanied minors, yet refuse to allow the minors access to contraception and abortion.

According to a press release, the ACLU states, “The U.S. government has committed to providing services to meet the basic needs of these teens. Reports indicate that between 60 and 80 percent of women and girls who cross the border are sexually active.”

“Some of these organizations impose their religious beliefs on these teens by denying them access to contraception, emergency contraception, and abortion,” the ACLU continues.

This is crazy on a couple of counts. First of all, this is yet another blatant attack on the rights of Christian conscience. Secondly, illegals have no right to ANYTHING but to be escorted back to the border.

Being on the side of the ACLU on illegal immigration not working so well, huh?

Probably the only thing that could possibly get immigrants to integrate into American culture, by integration with established religius institutions, and the ACLU wants to make it certain that no immigrants have contact with anyone other than the Fed Gov.

Poor ACLU. Where do they get the notion that paid-for abortions from Catholics for illegal, underage persons in the country is somehow a “Civil Liberty?”

the groups are awarded government funding contracts

When you dance with the Devil - you get burnt every time.

Christ had NO USE for the government. He taught how to live fully and joyously completely absent of it.
Christ was right. The world would be a better place if it shunned and had nothing to do with these "vipers". Once caught in the government snare, all sorts of demons show up to devour your flesh.

“The U.S. government has committed to providing services to meet the basic needs of these teens.

So abortion is now a “basic need”

When I was a kid I was taught that the basic needs were “Food, Clothing and Shelter”.

Anything else was luxury.

Yep. According to Maslow, basic physiological needs were right there at the base of the needs pyramid.
The need for abortion fits in there somewhere with the “needs” for Revlon makeup and Soap Opera Digest.

In the current usage they are not teens. They are Hispanic youth.

Sounds about right for the ACLU (sons of their father that they are), demand a murder provided for ‘new arrivals’ who have an accompanying ALIVE HUMAN BEING with them, albeit in a water world space capsule.

“Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB)....awarded government funding contracts to assist illegal unaccompanied minors”

Lay down with dogs, get up with fleas.

No sympathy from me for 1) helping the obama administration violate our immigration laws and, 2), taking government money in order to do so.

Socialist tyrants require a secular, passive, depressed, disillusioned, morally confused, always roiled, divided and most importantly disarmed populace to rule (not govern). The destruction of our Judeo-Christian foundations is critical to their plans (”gay marriage” is just the latest weapon)... and this destruction is a daily pursuit of the (misnamed) “mainstream” media. Folks who worship God (of the Bible) and not government are hard to “herd”, thus must be reduced in number and influence!

Daily we see the libtards virulent hate for all things Judeo-Christian... yet they seem to have a strange affection for Islam (can’t offend them!). Seems weird “math” but makes perfect (if creepy) sense. Islam is totalitarian friendly, Christianity is not. All the Hall of Shame 20th Century tyrants from Stalin, Hitler to Castro and Pol Pot despised and violently persecuted Christians. We remember Dietrich Bonhoeffer hanged by the Nazis 70 years ago yesterday. The 21st Century edition are ISIS and (misnamed) “progressives”. To close with wisdom gleaned from our Founders and my study of history... (with some 21st century context adjustment liberties):

Those who know not the Lord, are doomed to live in bondage, but despots cannot (for long) rule righteous men. God Bless America... America Bless God!

Yep. Their good deeds started out as a good thing, but once they sold their souls for 30 pieces of silver, their good deeds became the work of the Devil.

Happens every time someone takes even one red penny from the pushers in Washington. You either do as they say to get your fix, or you suffer through the withdrawals.

You are 100% right.

I especially like this truism: “Once caught in the government snare, all sorts of demons show up to devour your flesh.”

It always bothered me that the Catholic Church aided and abetted the illegal invaders; I guess I know now where the financing came from. At least it wasn’t my own weekly envelope...

Oh please. The Catholic church has been running an underground railroad for Illegals for decades. Great example is their allowing the Mexican consulate to operate out of the church on Catalina Island!
