I can’t go anywhere without lots of diapers ... size 3 and size 6!

If it came down to it, I wouldn’t apostasize, but I would charge the guns and make them shoot me before I went to jail with kids in diapers!

We should all prepare to oppose zerocare.

You don’t have to be Catholic to despise this “law”.

They are decades late & they have not got the courage of their convictions as they don’t have the convictions. Those few that do have the convictions are rarely able to articulate them. This is going to be ugly & a long drawn out fight .

12 years of Catholic education when the Sisters wore the habit & the board of education was a 1”x4” with a handle carved in it by the school custodian & it hung on the wall of the principals office & sadly I have to agree with Freeper stockpirate.

Thanks! Wow, crawling! Kathleen would like to roll over, but she’s too fat. She wobbles from her left side to her right, though.

Crawling on my awful floors, *shudder* ...

Thank the Lord for the growing number of good and courageous bishops and clergy. We are ready...with God’s help.

We are seeing the fruits of the John Paul II pontificate. The seminaries have all been restructured and the candidates for priesthood vetted well. Today’s new priests are grounded in orthodox theology and a deep love of Jesus Christ and His church.

The same can be said about many of these newer bishops. This group are filled with loyalty to the Gospel and to the church. They are willing to engage the culture and not back down on the truths of the Christian dogmas.

I say, “Go, Bishops, Go!” I stand with you and plan to be on the streets whenever a rally is close by my hometown -with homemade signs and my rosary beads.

This isn’t a war on catholics, it is a war on religion, all religion.

It's more than that. It's the state substituting its mandates for your conscience. To the Obamunists - the will-to-power driven monsters in the White House and beyond, human beings are nothing more than things, animals or machines. All else follows from that.

The real objection to the contraception and abotifacient mandate should be primarily rooted in property rights. Property rights are the most elemental right of an individual’s soveriegnty and free will. Forcing an individual to enter into a private contract or to pay for something not enumerated by the US Constitution is a violation of the 5th amendment. However, the generic argument for religious liberty is not unlimited. For example, Islam cannot enforce certain tenants of Sharia law which includes practices such as genital mutilation, honor killings, and gender discrimination.
The argument for religious liberty is mostly an exceptional but negative right. It is a right not to have to do something and to be left alone as long as it does not infringe on others’ rights.
