That’s fine with the left.
In their opinion, Catholic hospitals and charities are usurping the purview of the government to provide these services.
As a Catholic, I think this is the wrong response. Or at least it appears that way to me.
The leaders of the RC church should tell the Federal government they will not obey the order. The church ought to keep the hospitals open and refuse to pay a fine to the US gov’t. This would force the government to literally assume the ownership by force against a religous group.
Citizens need to call the government’s bluff here and risk going to jail over it. How would the gen’l population feel if the jails were full of Christians of all stripes being arrested and thrown into jails simply because they oppose this Obamacare mandate????
Witnesses for the faith by going to jail are a good tool against imperial edicts coming from our government.
