A majority (55%) of Americans agree that employers should be required to provide their employees with health care plans that cover contraception and birth control at no cost. Four-in-ten (40%) disagree with this requirement.
(snip)
Roughly 6-in-10 Catholics (58%) believe that employers should be required to provide their employees with health care plans that cover contraception.
Among Catholic voters, support for this requirement is slightly lower at 52%.
Only half (50%) of white Catholics support this requirement, compared to 47% who oppose it.
Among other religious Americans, 61% of religiously unaffiliated Americans believe that employers should be required to provide their employees with health care plans that cover contraception, compared to only half (50%) of white mainline Protestants and less than 4-in-10 (38%) white evangelical Protestants.

Obama is a 'figurehead' doing the bidding of those that put him in office. All he really cares about is golfing, and exotic food. He is spoon fed daily about where he can gain the most advantage. I hold Pewlosie and Stupak responsible for this outrage.
Agreed. It's an interesting moment for RC's in America. The question that is going to be answered is what kind of authority their church hierarchy really has. It seems that their hierarchy is condemning the obama admn, will RC's vote accordingly.
Good find. Now we don’t even have to look and see if Soros is funding them.
Because that can and often does lead to divorce. The type of feminist who will fight for abortion will leave the guy unless he does what she says. Even then she will leave or hate him. Seen the cycle to many times.
"if"?
"IF???"
Do at least try to pay attention.
OK ... you have been paying attention.
The Bishop's actions, of course, won't change my vote in the slightest.
I have opposed Zero from the beginning and will continue to do so.
Nice to have them on board, though ...
The church is not being forced to provide birth control or abortions.
The church has the choice to get out of the hospital business and turn the buildings over to the federal government cheap as its first step (25% of all hospitals), besides the VA, in taking over all hospitals.
I believe that is and has been Obama’s only goal in this.

Let me try, gently to tell you how WRONG YOU ARE!
The Church is being forced to provide insurance to their employees, that provides free contraception, sterilization, and abortifacients.
This is NOT about getting in or out of the hospital business!
This applies to any enterprise the Church is managing, to include the Parish, the Diocees, Charities, and hospitals.
Again, it is not about what goes on IN the hospitals, its about the insurance coverage for hospital employees!
The Catholic church was 100% behind Obamacare, I was so angry with
the church I almost left the church. It was like the final straw after
the cover up of priest pedophiles, annulment of Kennedy marriages,
Ted Kennedy receiving sacraments after killing Mary Jo.
Now the church is reaping what it sowed, you back government, they
control you, lay down with dogs you end up with fleas!!!!!!!
You sow to the wind and you reap the whirlwind.
This nation is FINISHED due to thinking like in this article.
There is nothing that is Free! To give something to one for “FREE, first they have to take away from someone else by force.
So these idiots who support this are going to either not get raises, get higher health contributions, or just laid off and lose everything.
This idiocracy we have turned into is destined to collapse and we have no one to blame but ourselves.

Once again the evangelicals hold stronger to their principles than do the Roman Catholics.
The question should be limited to Catholic employers, not just employers in general.

I cannot hold the Catholic church 100% responsible. There were/are some in the Catholic church that are considered in good standing that made it their business to shove this abomination down our throats. I consider handing out 'grace' to Castro to be among a long list of abominations.
BUT do not 'fear' our Heavenly Father will never leave or forsake those that love Him, their denomination notwithstanding. We each and individually get to account for our self, only Christ is our mediator.
