This just may be the issue that unities all Christians.
Dramatic unities for No Drama Obama...that's classic.

all denominations see it for what it is, a take over of religious freedom....the supreme court made it clear that the government cannot tell religious how to run their church cause if they do, they are making a state religion which is forbidden by the Constitution.

If all hospitals that are religious were to say Nope we will close down, there goes about 1/2 the hospitals in the country....Obama is not smart, he is the biggest dumb ass going and has surrounded himself with other dumb ass's.

I think that boy wants a civil war 2...idiot

Jewish people are also standing strong () with the catholic church.... Overt, open religious persecution has started..

This is how >upset the Priests are in the Catholic Church. My Bishop’s name is on the list. My Priest didn’t read the letter at the Mass I attended. Instead, the Priest spoke about the letter, abortion & the March for Life.

The Priest then stepped >out of the Sanctuary & walked up to the first pews. The Priest explained the prior promises President Obama made to the Catholic Bishops & what Obama is doing NOW. The Priest then >apologized for what he was going to say & then said, ‘President Obama just gave our Bishops the >finger.’ The Priest then asked us to pray for the Catholic Church & the USA.

The Priest is a middle aged man & has been a Priest for a number of years. The vocation of the Catholic Bishop is to help people get >into Heaven & NOT to help send people to Hell. It will be a historic election year.

Fantastic testimony from your priest. God bless him.

I am blessed to live in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia; Archbishop Chaput has been a stalwart rock.

Our Monsignor, Msr. McLoone, personally read the letter and explained it at each and every Mass this weekend.

I was surprised at the number of people who had no idea exactly what this evil mandate was about, and wonderfully surprised that no one walked out (given the number of CINOs in our parish).

The Priest spoke like a Priest without anger; it was just a statement of fact.
>>>1corinthians9: 19-23 in part, “Although I am free in regards to all, I have made myself a slave to all so as to win over as many as possible. To the Jews I became like a Jew... To those outside the law I became like one outside the law... To the weak I became weak, to win over the weak. I have become all things to all to save at least some. >All this I do for the sake of the gospel, so that I too may have a share in it.’
>>>On Judgment Day, Jesus Christ will ask all his ministerial Priests,’Where be all the sheep I gave you?’ All members of the ‘common priesthood of the faithful’ are also obligated to understand the ‘Parable of the Talents.’

I still can’t figure why the Pope does not send an email to the Bishops. Something like “ we expect your support in standing against this decision”..........I just don’t get the voting of Bishops on issues. I thought Rome had the final say.
