Is Obama assaulting the first by forcing the Catholic church to pay for abortions?

Update:

MAX, he is forcing, by edict, the churches insurance carrier to provide abortion free of charge. even though he is now not forcing the church directly they will still end up paying for it.

Update 2:

mdmagicm: source, Obama's mouth

Update 3:

GARY F: because abortion is so civilized

Update 4:

masterchief: first see "source" above. second, is your point that, because of sexual assaults we should be forced to kill kids too?

Update 5:

GARY F: countries with atheism as the state policy have the most blood on their hands ie russia, china, hitler's germany, cuba, just for starters. genocide and atheism go hand in hand.

Update 6:

GARY F: Hitler denied the church that had prevented him from becoming a priest and persecuted christians. he practiced the occult crafts while ruling germany.

    1st he never did that.

    Typical short attention span conservatives aside.

    Insurance companies would include reproduction services as part of the package.

    Just like you don't have to buy everything in the supermarket,but it's there if you want it.

    2nd is the FACT that Notre Dame,Georgetown and Fordham already do this for its employees a mystery to you ?

    Could it be that Timothy Dolan recently raised to Cardinal and who took back his apology to the victims of pedophile priests needs cover ?

    It was under his watch that priests were transferred and sheltered upon discovery of the crimes.

    It was the massive settlements paid to victims that caused the closure of 4 Catholic hospitals in New York,when he was archbishop.

    It wasn't abortions or birth control that caused this.

    Who has more blood on their hands than the Catholic Church? It's called the Dark Ages for a reason, you know.

    ====

    "Today Christians ... stand at the head of [this country]... I pledge that I never will tie myself to parties who want to destroy Christianity .. We want to fill our culture again with the Christian spirit ... We want to burn out all the recent immoral developments in literature, in the theater, and in the press - in short, we want to burn out the poison of immorality which has entered into our whole life and culture as a result of liberal excess during the past ... (few) years."

    If the church hospitals were already giving abortions, it really just shows that the Church and Obama are hypocritical. But, there was a bit of noise from the 2% of real Catholics.

    certainly. the new legislator forces the church to go against it's beliefs, thus not giving it the freedom of believing in what they think is right. imagine being forced to do something you think is morally wrong. do you think that violates some of your rights as an American, nay as a human being?
