Glad they won their case, but nobody should be saddled with a government mandate on whether to insure their employees or, if so, to what degree they must do so.

I agree that the whole thing should go away, but at least this shows that Obama is still (slightly) afraid of the Church. However, look for him to attack from a different direction.

Many Protestants here don’t understand that back in the days of royalty, the Church was really the only institutional opposition. When Henry VIII set up his own church (totally in line with the civil ruler, obviously), this was actually one of the things that set in motion what we have now - civil governments that don’t even bother with churches - except for the Catholic Church, which has retained its institutional integrity even if way too many of its heirarchs are good buddies with the Dems.

The tension between Church and State was important, and even when there were connections of convenience between them, they still remained separate entities and the Church was very often in the opposition.

I believe James Dobson won his case recently also.
