What on earth makes you think there's any Federal Funding going to The Catholic Church?
You are very confused.
And once again, I repeat, nobody is being forced to work at any institutions run by The Church.
It is employment by choice.
If you don't want to wear a funky cap and tunic, don't get a job at McDonalds.
Simple as that.
By the way, influenza, appendicitis, cancer, diabetes, et al; are illnesses that happen without you doing anything to get them.
Pregnancy is not an illness, it is a result of a conscious choice of action.
Take responsibility for your actions.

Various kinds of medical conditions can be helped with birth control pills.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): is a hormonal imbalance which causes irregular menstrual periods, acne, and excess hair growth. Birth control pills work by lowering certain hormone levels to regulate menstrual periods. When hormone levels are decreased to normal, acne and hair growth often improve.

Endometriosis: Most girls with endometriosis have cramps or pelvic pain during their menstrual cycle. Birth control pills are often prescribed to treat endometriosis and work by temporarily preventing periods. When hormonal treatment is prescribed continuously, young women will rarely have periods, or not at all. Since periods can cause pain for young women with endometriosis, stopping periods will usually improve cramps and pelvic pain.

Lack of periods (“amenorrhea”) from low weight, stress, excessive exercise, or damage to the ovaries from radiation or chemotherapy: With any of these conditions, the hormone “estrogen” is not made in normal amounts by the body. Birth control pills may be prescribed to replace estrogen, which helps to regulate the menstrual cycle. For girls whose menstrual periods are irregular (too few - or not at all), birth control pills can help to regulate the menstrual cycle to every 28 days and provide the body with normal amounts of estrogen. Normal estrogen levels are important for healthy bones.

Menstrual Cramps: When over-the-counter medications don't help with severe cramps, birth control pills may be the solution because they prevent ovulation and lighten periods.

Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS): Symptoms of PMS such as mood swings, breast soreness, and bloating, along with acne can occur up to 2 weeks before a young women's period. Birth control pills may be prescribed to stop ovulation and keep hormone levels balanced. Symptoms may improve, particularly when oral contraceptive pills are prescribed continuously.

Heavy Menstrual Periods: Birth control pills can reduce the amount and length of menstrual bleeding.

Acne: For moderate to severe acne, which over-the-counter and prescription medications haven't cured, birth control pills may be prescribed. The hormones in the Pill can help stop acne from forming. Be patient though, since it takes several months for birth control pills to work.

Excuse me, but if workers at the Catholic Hospitals, and clinics need birth care, then they must buy their own. For God's sake what else can we give these deadbeats? The Government is going bankrupt, because it is giving people everything for free. Enough already. This vote buying with taxpayer's money has to stop. I have to buy mine, they have to buy theirs.

Obviously you don't have health insurance or you would be buying your own. Under Obama's mandate, anyone who has insurance that covers other prescription drugs and preventive care must provide coverage of contraception. To do otherwise is a violation of the Civil Rights Act. It is the insurance companies that will be picking up the costs...not the government...and they are glad to do it. Preventing a pregnancy is far less expensive than tending to a pregnant woman for nine months. That is a fact.

What is the Catholic position on paying for unprovoked wars that kill babies AFTER they are born?

We have just witnessed one of the best examples of presidential leadership in my lifetime. Women employed in Catholic businesses were in need of reproductive health care that violated Catholic teachings. Obama proposed that Catholic businesses provide this health care through their insurance policies just like every other business.
Instead of working with the president to solve this dilemma, Republicans responded by declaring that the president was waging a war on religion. Obama was left to solve this problem himself.
Within a week president Obama came up with a brilliant solution that made everyone happy. Insurance companies would be required to provide this insurance and actually save money in doing so because birth control is much cheaper than the expense of pregnancy and abortion. Women would get the health care they needed for free and Catholic businesses would not be required to provide it.
After solving this crisis one would think that everyone that spoke out so angrily at president Obama and did nothing to help him resolve this issue would at least say well done. Certainly “fair and balanced” FOX News would be the first to congratulate the president on this fantastic resolution.
Republican politicians have spent the last three years taking this same obstructionist negative do nothing approach to governing our country. If you believe that president Obama was forced to handle this difficult situation himself and are angry that women were used as pawns by Republicans who were willing to sacrifice their best interests to bring down Obama then pass this on.

Your post says four things about you:

1) You dont believe in upholding the Constitution.
2) You don't think that First Amendment Rights are valid.
3) You don't agree with separation of Church and State.
4) You think Congress and due legislative process should be sidestepped by a rogue Dictator/President acting unilaterally.

This makes me think you don't mind being a pawn of a president usurping power while dismantling your Constitutional rights and freedoms keeping you down on the plantation.

What war do you think The Catholic Church has declared or is funding?

You're crazier than I thought.

Funny but his decision supports separation of church and state. Church must follow the law as everyone else. Excluding them solely on their religion would be against the Constitution.

No. It's quite the opposite.
This health legislation is just one more timber supporting Obama's house of tyranny.

You can't be blind to Obama's actions, government control of the auto industry, government control of banking, government control of housing, government control of food industry, government control of transportation, government control of fuel and energy, government control of education and student loans, government control of the internet and information, government control of health care.
And by the last, government intervention in religion leading to legislation from the pulpit.

We fought King George's army over just such intervention and tyranny.
That is why these limitations to government are addressed, and stressed, so strongly in the Constitution.

Obama's big government socialism isn't what America is about.
This nation's strength is due to governance from the bottom up. Obama is all about control dictated from the top.
Big government socialism interfering in every facet of your life.
Don't wait till it's too late to stop this coup on civil liberties and civil rights.

ObamaNazis invade you child's lunch sack.

"State Inspectors Searching Children’s Lunch Boxes:
“This Isn’t China, Is It?”
February 14, 2012 by Matt Willoughby in Education

A mother in Hoke County complains her daughter was forced to eat a school lunch because a government inspector determined her home-made lunch did not meet nutrition requirements........

The mother, who doesn’t wish to be identified at this time, says she made her daughter a lunch that contained a turkey and cheese sandwich, a banana, apple juice and potato chips.
A state inspector assessing the pre-K program at the school said the girl also needed a vegetable, so......

The mother, who lives in Fayetteville, sent a statement to state Rep. G.L. Pridgen (R-Robeson) detailing her complaint. Pridgen says he was shocked to hear it.
Pridgen has since learned this is a NATIONWIDE PRACTICE based on FEDERAL guidelines.

An assistant to Pridgen says the girl’s grandmother was also upset and asked,“This isn’t China, is it?”....."

Obama stealing from you at the gas pumps.

"Obama Cites Rising Gas Prices – Up 83 Percent Under His Tenure

CNSNews.com reported last month that under Obama, the price of gas climbed by 83 percent.

When Obama entered the White House in January 2009, the city average price for one gallon of regular unleaded gasoline was $1.79, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
The figures are in nominal dollars: not adjusted for inflation.
Five months later in June, unleaded gasoline was $2.26 per gallon, an increase of 26 percent.
By December 2011, the price of regular unleaded gas per gallon was $3.28, an 83 percent increase from January 2009.........."

Obama is crushing the average citizen with debt!

"The Cost of Obama
8:05 AM, Feb 14, 2012

President Obama’s fourth budget has now been released, which allows for a relatively full accounting of deficit spending during his four years in office. The picture isn’t pretty, but it is revealing..........

Adding all of this up, deficit spending during Obama’s four years in the White House (based on his own figures) will be an estimated $5.170 trillion — or $5,170,000,000,000.00.

To help put that colossal sum of money into perspective, if you take our deficit spending under Obama and divide it evenly among the roughly 300 million American citizens, that works out to just over $17,000 per person — or about $70,000 for a family of four."

Too bad the facts don't support your hypothesis.

Example, a hospital run by the Catholic church, there are many across America, employes people of all religions and backgrounds as required by law. As part of their benefit package the provide health care. The Catholic administration, by forcing their beliefs (no contraceptives) onto other is the one infringing on the Freedom of religion of non Catholics.

That is just one example

In the religion that I practice, we strongly believe that men who watch FOX News should be forced to use birth control. As a condition of employment in my business they must prove that they have been castrated. Is this protected under your interpretation of the first amendment?

You are forgetting that employment is not a right.

One must make a choice when seeking employment to meet the standards and conditions required of that job, or seek employment elsewhere if they disagree.

For instance, a commercial airline pilot or rail road worker is subject to drug testing, a policeman must be proficient with guns and a fireman must be able to carry a certain amount of weight up or down a ladder.
To prevent a religious institution from being able to have their own moral standards in employee benefits is unconstitutional, unreasonable and discriminatory.

You have a right to your religious beliefs and conditions of employment.
And I have a right not to seek employment with your business.

Isn't America wonderful?

Dr. Paul for POTUS

Romney for POTUS

Santorum for POTUS

Gingrich for POTUS

Not necessarily in that order.

Just get bama outta there.

4 more years of bama and we'll all be speaking Esperanto.

Me Obama
Me love world

All you Obama haters are nothing more than pimps for the rich. You have been spoon fed faulty information by Rupert Murdoch's FOX News and can't even think for yourselves anymore. He's convinced you that every other news source is "out to get you". Your fears are being exploited by a big bucks propaganda machine that is spinning a fantasy FOX world and playing you like a fiddle.
Obama has led our country to 23 straight months of job growth, ever hear that stat on FOX?

Leadership Failure,
Clueless Bumbler Obama's Failed Promises

"Obama On Failed Promise To Cut Deficit In Half:
"Recession Turned Out To Be A Lot Deeper"

In an interview with Atlanta's local ....WAGA-TV President Obama explains why he was unable to cut the deficit in half in his first term,
a promise he made as a candidate.

Obama ........said he is getting "pelted in the media" for making a campaign promise he did not keep.

"Well we're not there because this recession turned out to be a lot deeper than any of us realized,"
Obama said about his inability to cut the deficit in half.

"Everybody who is out there back in 2009, if you look back what their estimates were in terms of how many jobs had been lost, how bad the economy had contracted when I took office, everybody underestimated it.
People thought that the economy contracted 3%.
It turns it retracted close to 9%. We lost 8 million jobs just in a year's span......" Obama said.

"So, the die had been cast, but a lot of us didn't understand at that point how bad it was going to get....."
