The Catholic Church seems to be accepting that the battle to save marriage in the courts has been lost. The Church is digging in to save its religious liberty to conduct its institutions according to its faith.
The fight over teacher morality contracts, HHS birth control mandates is just the beginning. I wouldn’t be surprised if the IRS starts to grant Tax Exempt Status based on how much diversity the church promotes.
I a lot of these updated agreements are based on advice from Church lawyers to protect the School’s status as a religious institution.
The next steps are usually stripping the church of assets and declaring its priests a dangerous foreign influence and expelling/attacking them for treason.
