Founders gave us freedom to express our religion, Obama says not so fast as a dictator.
 
He’s doing his Henry VIII bit. You can exercise your religion all you want, as long as you realize that I’m the head of the church in this country!

Did you mean to post this in the Catholic News forum? Because the rule in the news fora is that you have to link to a news article and use the article’s tital as your thread title.
 
This whole business of forcing religious groups to administer contraception is in direct violation of seperation of church and state! This was written to protect the church so that the government would not infringe on church freedom of religion and the exercise there of. I really hope Congress wins this one because it sets presidence for future laws concerning religion.

I liked Obama and the rest of the World too. He received the Nobel Prize and people said it was too soon. I disagreed for I thought those people were wrong.

Now I see I was wrong.

The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided that the Nobel Peace Prize for 2009 is to be awarded to President Barack Obama for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples. … nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/peace/laureates/2009/press.html .

Will he now have to give it back for causing so much divisiveness between peoples?
 
I find it laughable that all of the Catholics who supported Obama are shocked at this.

So this: “Guarantee free excercise of religion; Obama says no way.” is just some opinion of yours, not the name of any story found anywhere or a quote from the President.

I would agree you have a right to that opinion in regards to Obama, and a right to freely express your religion.
 
I really don’t get why Obama can’t just let the religious health institutions regulate themselves. As long as they clearly state what they will not cover, I see no problems. The non-religious can get their health care wherever they’d like, and those of us with a conscience can get it elsewhere.

I don’t believe it is all that many who are “shocked”. Those Catholics who voted for him found a way to rationalize supporting an “abortion then, abortion now, abortion always” candidate would have no trouble rationalizing this latest outrage.

You don’t understand. Birth control pills and abortion are not the real issues. In order for liberalism to work, it has to take away peoples’ rights. The modern liberal state cannot have an island of freedom [read: Christianity] right in its midst. øbama knows he can’t eliminate churches, but he must control them, much like the government controls churches in Red China. Capisce?

If there are those out there who think this is an extreme assessment, I challenge them answer your question.

I agree, even many Protestants are outraged. Why because if Obama does this to Catholics then someone else in our religious community is next.

I guess they’ll have no problem continuing the rationalization when Catholic hospitals and charities and women’s shelters shut down.

I hope many others who held favorable position toward Obama before, will have the same realization as you do now.

Based on his community organizer background, and his track records, you can easily smell the far left scent before he was even elected. Now his administration proves that. He wants to control literally EVERYTHING. He wants to destroy Wall Street, occupy it. He wants to control religion, like the communist China. He wants to have class war, arouse hatred between different social classes, he wants to re-distribute wealth. He wants to turn this great nation into hell. He is not only aiming at the Catholic Church, he is to overturn this nation from the root. He has a mission.

We the people cannot allow this. We have to vote him out before it is too late.

Anyone who values the basic standards of religious freedom and freedom of conscience upon which our nation was founded should be outraged.
