**The Becket Fund said that the Little Sisters and their attorneys are looking into the possibility of appealing the ruling to the Supreme Court.**

Good.

Time for Civil Disobedience. Same thing my church will do if asked to perform a homosexual wedding. The answer is NO WE WILL NOT COMPLY.

Well said. There is a case to be made for exhausting all legal options, but then it is time to change the playing field.

Defy the mandate. Don’t pay, and dare the IRS goons to slap liens on you and/or arrest you. Make them take the steps they don’t want to take.

The world will learn quickly that sisters like these have spines of steel.

Nothing here is to say that other moves should not be made, moves in the spiritual sphere.

However to pack up your marbles and go home is EXACTLY what these fiends want.

I agree, refuse to do it and get every bit of news media they can showing the government dragging them off in handcuffs.

The administration will fold like a dime whore under a dollar John.

Ignore the government altogether and ignore the fines. I wouldn’t even try to appeal this. Just go underground.

Good.

Do we really want to put this in the hands of the Robert's court?

Instead of cringing and waffling and maneuvering like weasels, trying to work around each new crime of the government, how about smashing the illegitimate Marxist government pretending to be the “U.S. Government”?

“Not associated with a particular house of worship” is part of the elimination of the “free exercise of religion.” The Marxists have decreed that what we have a right to is “freedom of worship.”

And “worship” takes place inside churches—and nowhere else.

The absolute terror most people (e.g., Catholic bishops) have regarding being dragged off in handcuffs is the reason that the Nazi-Marxists in control of our “government” have been getting their way for fifty years.

When people DID get dragged off in handcuffs because they tried to save the lives of babies at abortion clinics, only one Catholic bishop in America (René Gracida) taught the cops what their duty was: Refuse to assist abortionists to kill babies. Every other bishop allowed the cops in his diocese to commit mortal sin with no correction.

I'm waiting for the Vatican to weigh in on this.

Is this said from faith or from pride?

A bunch of straw men you have certainly presented. True faith does not presume, but it does engage the genuine and willing power of God, not the presumptuousness of a church of men.
