Catholic hospitals could simply choose to turn away all emergency calls on a certain Friday night to the local secular hospitals. The same is true for parochial schools: each child could register for the local public school on August 1st.

The issue here is that the implications of these actions are not considered by imperial courts because they do not have to deal with the consequences of their imbecilic and atheistic actions. The Catholic schools and hospitals provide a service to all comers--as Christ commanded--provided their religious views are respected. We render to Caesar what is Caesar and to God what is God's. They--the new "priests" wearing black judicial robes--will not brook that concept; it supercedes their earthly authority and that is unacceptable to them.

I think that all hospitals that are licensed are required by some inane and ridiculously expensive federal mandate to serve all emergency cases within their competence. I may be wrong.
