Official state-sanctioned persecution of the Church by increments.

In our lifetimes we will see Catholic hospitals closed down by the government for refusing to facilitate euthanasia.

"We must weigh against [their] interests in adhering to the tenets of their faith the state's substantial interest in fostering equality between the sexes, and in providing women with better health care."

Religious freedom is specifically addressed in the Constitution while "fostering equality between the sexes, and in providing women with better health care" is not.

Appeal this all the way to SCOTUS.

Why can't Catholic Charities move out of liberal MA and NY to a State that would welcome them. Do not cast your peals before swine and all of that. Really vote with your feet and money.

The courts basically think that the "free exercise" of religion means you get to think what you want in the privacy of your own home.

If you act on any of those beliefs, however, then you are subject to state control.

In other words, they stand the words of the Constitution on their head, and ignore the fact that "social service work", i.e. charity, is considered an essential part of the practice of the faith.

Catholic charities should move their bank accounts out of the state and ignore the ruling.

Notice how the AP does the propaganda spin, the exceprt paragraph would imply THIS IS IN YOU, YOUR STATE, WHERE YOU LIVE STATE. Despite the fact this appears to only be NY based on the NY Catholic reference.

Pure propaganda.


Of course folks with a FEDERAL majority we have a chance to introduce federal law to trump this state law. Democrats will make the opposit mandatory.

Thanks for the propaganda AP.

The court said the fact that the organizations hire employees outside their faith is a critical factor and they deserve the rights sought under the law.

"New" rights. And we all know "new" rights trump old rights. Thank God we have courts and judges that constantly create "new" rights for us. The old ones get sort of stale from time to time.

These judges really need to read our Constitution. They can not make laws telling "religion" what to do. It's all there in the First Ammendment!
