>>Archbishop Joseph E. Kurtz of Louisville, Ky., president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, has asked the federal government that temporary protection from the mandate be extended to all religious employers who object to it.<<
Ask the feds? DEMAND IT. And when they refuse, publicly excommunicate every single person who has anything to do with this.
And after they are through yelling and screaming, politely tell them that no baptisms, no Confessions, no Communion, no marriages, no burials, NOTHING.
And if they still persist, shut down all Catholic schools and Catholic hospitals.
I think they would go at your list backwards.
Shut down the hospitals first.
