The Pope, the Little Sisters, and ObamaCare
American Thinker ^ | September 28, 2015 | Daniel John Sobieski

Posted on 09/28/2015 10:08:29 AM PDT by raptor22

Pope Francis’ unexpected and unscheduled visit to the Little Sisters of the Poor, a convent of elderly nuns fighting ObamaCare’s contraception mandate in the courts, is a clear message shot across the Obama administration’s bow that such religious persecution is not acceptable, backing up the American Catholic Church’s mantra: we will not comply

While the lamestream media focuses on the Pope’s seeming alignment on issues such as climate change and immigration reform, the chattering class ignores this ongoing battle over religious liberty.

I’m glad he did it but when prominent Catholic clergy came out in support of Obamacare, they made a deal with the devil whether or not Obama promised them that abortion would not be covered. Eventually, all kinds of evil will be subsidized by the government and paid for by people who would not ordinarily pay for it. So supporting the Little Sisters is trying to win a battle while conceding the loss of the war.

It was not early enough, nor clear enough. Lack of Timing and Blurring the Truth is what this pope is all about—so people do not hear or remain ignorant——so it has no effect on the evil vile culture.

Obamacare is a travesty and dehumanization (like all socialism). As Solzhenitsyn stated (and this pope can’t understand)-—even a LITTLE BIT OF SOCIALISM ROTS THE SOUL.

All Socialism destroys Choice (Free Will in humans) and normalizes group “think” and dependency in all children raised in such a system-—so they have little, ignorant tribal minds-—like the Afghani harem boys who believe sodomizing males, boys and goats is “normal” and “good”.

As Fichte wanted with the Prussian System of mass indoctrination-—”Snow is Black” and sodomy becomes Good and a “Natural Right” from God——which really is NO Natural Right and always from Satan since it is an irrational, vile use of human beings which strips meaning and purpose from the individual.

As St. Augustine knew——VICE creates SLAVES always and Emotions rule Reason when evil is habituated. (that is why our “Justice” (virtue) System was deformed to promote evil and socialism——to deliberately DESTROY VIRTUE in the children raised in such irrational, evil systems.

Evil Justice Holmes and Marxists on the Court destroyed our “legal” system with “Legal Positivism” which strips Reason and Virtue from “Justice” which makes Justice meaningless and irrational. To destroy culture and Freedom-—as our Founders knew-—all you had to do was destroy the “legal” system and make some more “equal” and “special” than others and to deform Natural Rights from God——to mean from the State-—and normalize that tribal mentality in all the ignorant children using the Prussian system of mass indoctrination so individualism would be CRUSHED and children would grow up FEARING thinking like a Washington or Lincoln or Adam Smith.

Why are our children so dumb????? Because they are fed Lies and Misinformation and their learning time is wasted on inhumane practices-—screen-time and artificial environments which remove the Mother and Father-—the true transmitters of Common Sense and understanding of Self and Individualism and so they embed Natural Laws——not artificial evil, vile use of other human beings-—removed from human interaction and habituation of Virtue.

**The Little Sisters of the Poor, one would hope, are not counted among those President Obama once called “less than loving Christians” at an Easter Prayer Breakfast, of all places. The war for religious liberty is still being fought by a group of elderly Catholic nuns against the Obama administration. By their fruits, ye shall know them both**
