A New York Catholic diocese lost another battle in court Thursday when a state appeals court upheld a ruling requiring that health insurance policies in the state cover abortions.
The Times Union reports the Appellate Division of state Supreme Courts Third Department ruled 5-0 against the Roman Catholic Diocese of Albany.
The diocese is challenging a state regulation that requires health insurance companies to cover medically necessary abortions. The Catholic Church teaches that every human life is valuable, from conception to natural death, and abortions are are moral evil.
Meanwhile, abortion industry leaders claim abortions are health care, thereby making every abortion seem medically necessary. However, medical groups representing more than 30,000 doctors in America recently emphasized that abortions are not essential or medical care.
In its lawsuit, the diocese slammed the state regulation as morally and religiously offensive, according to the report. It argued that the abortion mandate is unconstitutional because it violates religious freedom, free speech, freedom of expression and the equal protection clause.
But the appellate court rejected those arguments, claiming the dioceses case is a distinction without a legal difference in addition to the fact that it would require this court to enter the thicket of making a religious value judgment, according to the report.

Some illiterate wrote that headline.
So to avoid the thicket of making a religious value judgment, they made an anti religious value judgment. Fed courts next, I suppose.
This is perhaps good. When this case gets to the United States Supreme Court, it may make justices like John Roberts look seriously at Abortion. It may force the Court to reality and force the decision that medical plans cannot be forced to fund Baby-killing. Next, it will have to handle the government having to subsidize Planned Parenthood. New York may have started the beginning of the end for abortion here in this country.

The court is to Rule on Little Sisters of the Poor having to provide abortion in the medical insurance they carry SO if the ruling is in the favor of Little Sisters it should also strike down NY appeal court!!
I would expect nothing different from the state of NY. It is thoroughly infiltrated.
I guess Hell will be a crowded fiery pit.
‘Meanwhile, abortion industry leaders claim abortions are health care”
This health care” is not baby friendly.
So what, they teach homosexuality is a sin and most of the clergy practice it.
Not so sure the feds will uphold this
Which court and what are the members names?
You saw that little manipulation too, eh?
Disgusting baby murdering commie-nazi judges need yo be removed ASAP! We need honest judges or nobody will ever respect the law ever again
“OMG.....END TIMES! DISGUSTING!”
I bet Francis thinks it’s fine.
Doxx abortion providers. Fight back!
