Catholic Joe Biden Wants to Force Pro-Lifers to Pay for Abortions: Yet He says “I go to Mass and I say the rosary."

One of the most revolting aspects of the sinister corruptocrat Old Joe Biden’s carefully cultivated public persona as affable Lunchbucket Joe is his ostentatious false piety. “I go to Mass and I say the rosary. I find it to be incredibly comforting,” Biden claimed in a 2020 campaign ad, and the establishment media has pushed this nonsense as well.

“The new president,” the New York Times announced three days after Joe started pretending to be president, “elevates a liberal Catholicism that once seemed destined to fade away.” By “liberal Catholicism,” the Times means an ostentatious, external piety emptied of all its content and cynically designed to win Catholic votes, and the Biden regime has now underscored that fact by trying to force pro-lifers to pay for abortions. If that’s Catholicism, Joe, I’m Fidel Castro.

LifeNews reported Wednesday that the regime is planning to end the legal right to object on moral grounds to the “HHS mandate.” The “HHS mandate,” LifeNews explains, is “the term commonly used to refer to the requirement under Obamacare for employers to pay for abortifacients, contraceptives, and sterilization in their health insurance plans.” Now Biden’s handlers have made “a formal proposal to create a new regulation” that would “strip away the rights of organizations to refuse to comply with the HHS mandate because they have a moral objection to abortion, contraceptives, or sterilization.” Does this violate the First Amendment’s guarantee of freedom of religion? Of course. But they’ll get away with it unless and until the Supreme Court stops them. That could take a while.

When the Obama regime first imposed the HHS mandate in 2013, it noted that religious groups were exempt; even then, however, “the exemption was so narrow that even some churches couldn’t qualify.” Pro-lifers challenged the mandate in courts and won a series of victories that secured their exemption from having to pay for abortions. Then the Trump administration put a rule in place that specifically protected religious groups from being harassed on the basis of the HHS mandate. Now, however, “the Biden proposal would rescind the Trump rule and force non-religious employers with only a moral objection to comply.”

Can you imagine the March for Life, one of the foremost pro-life organizations in the country, having to pay for abortions? Old Joe Biden can. LifeNews notes that March for Life “previously sued the Obama administration on the matter and won in a lower court before the case was mooted by the Trump rule.” But now Catholic Joe wants to strip away those protections. March for Life and every other pro-life organization in the country would find its tax dollars going to fund the national sacrifices to Moloch. That sure is living your faith, Joe!

Roger Severino, a Trump-era HHS official, explained what this initiative is all about: “It’s all politics. They have to answer to their radical pro-abortion base. They couldn’t stomach the fact that they have lost this issue at every stage at the Supreme Court, and they want to show that they are continuing to resist in the wake of the Dobbs ruling… This is a purely political stunt to try to send a message to institutions with moral objections to the sexual revolution.”

Yes, and that message is quite ominous. The Biden regime is working to restrict the freedom of speech (as we saw with its ill-fated Disinformation Governance Board and its pressure on Twitter to silence dissidents) and the right to bear arms; now it is trying to gut the freedom of religion as well.

All it would need to destroy that freedom utterly would be five compliant Supreme Court Justices. It doesn’t have them now and we can hope that it never will, but nevertheless, the Biden regime is without a doubt laying the foundation for the destruction of the right of citizens to dissent on religious grounds from the government’s soul- and life-destroying far-Left agenda.

Catholic Joe could end up going down in history as one of the foremost enemies of the right to life. This would be an odd legacy for such an ostentatiously Catholic president, and it exposes Old Joe once again as the inveterate liar that he is. In fact, the one certain thing amid all this is that a foremost aspect of the Biden legacy will be a series of tremendous advances and victories for the Father of Lies.

RE: Pray for the Conversion of Joe Biden and the Pope.

Is Francis in support of Joe?

[ConservativeInPA]

Xiden prays the rosary? Exactly how does a demented fool remember the prayers when he can’t even read?

[I want the USA back]

These radical leftists want to force us to pay for abortions, sex-”change” operations, and euthanasia. The goal is to eliminate Christianity.

what a psycho.............

“I go to Mass and I say the rosary”

Neither of which gives salvation.

[adorno]

Yet He says “I go to Mass and I say the rosary."

This is just another one of the thousands of lies he has told while president, and one in the millions he has told over his life.

But, he doesn't say the rosary; he reads it from a teleprompter and looks far off into the distance, pretending that people are agreeing with 'his speech'.

“external piety emptied of all its content and cynically designed to win Catholic votes”

I doubt that had any appeal to practicing Catholics. It’s rather repulsive.

The ‘I was raised Catholic so I guess I’m Catholic’ people that the pollsters lump in with practicing Catholics are a different story.

biden, may hades punish you and torment you for eternity

[hinckley buzzard]

He goes to Mass and says the rosary. And the devil quotes scripture in Matthew 4.

[Organic Panic]

Is this before or after he goes to a black church?

[redgolum]

Either the RCC is pro homo, pro infanticide, or they are luke warm.

And remember what the Savior said about the luke warm.

Now, the RCC hasn’t lasted as long as it has by being pro or anti ANYTHING that will cause them to impact the bottom line, so I have low expectations.

[OHPatriot]

Conversion?????? They BOTH belong in Hell. The sooner the better for the entire world. I’m beyond sick and tired of these F*cking perverts playing Catholic. This crap ain’t what I was taught.

[Antoninus]

Jim McGreevey used to say the same things - about what a devout Catholic he was - on the election trail. This, after two marriages. Later it was revealed that he was also an avid pursuer of younger men.

Someone must tell these creeps that it does their cause nothing but good if they claim to be a devout Catholic. And that someone is probably satan.

“I go to Mass and I say the rosary.

The modern day version of indulgences

President Retard is the pope’s buddy so he thinks he can crap on anybody he wants. And he does

[Nifster]

He mumbles while he fumbles

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Joe Biden gives Chick Tracts plenty of ammunition.

“I go to Mass and I say the rosary”

Neither of which gives salvation.

But Lord, I went to mass, and confession and prayed the Rosary, and was baptized as an infant, and was an altar boy, and checked all the obligatory religious boxes.

Jesus: Depart from me, I never knew you.
