This is going to get bad for all of us (Catholics, Evangelicals and Orthodox Jews).
Actually, Orthodox Jews represent a very tiny proportion of the population so they might be allowed to slip by. Probably Catholics will be hit the worst, because they have bgger insttitutions and institutional charities, and then the Evangelicals will start feeling it - a church at a time, since there is no Evangelical “big church” that would unite these independent groups and could be attacked as a whole.
This is a seriously bad move by Obama - and he’ll probably get away with it.
I suspect that you’re right, livius, but we cannot give in, at all. I’m sure that the Church has some modernist, or perhaps ill-formed folks who somehow try to reconcile a desire to get along with true Catholic teachings. But in this, they cannot, at their own peril. The line drawn is the expected one, and we cannot give in.
I hope and pray that the evangelical groups, or perhaps at least some of them, see that while we are the primary target, this will eventually affect all Christians that don’t tow the progressive line. On the other hand, to be quite blunt, there is nothing in my life as valued to me as my faith.
