President Obama has won in federal district court and the Little Sisters of the Poor will be forced to offer abortions to their employees.
The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals decided that these nuns could not follow their conscience and had to acquiesce to the bogus "compromise" provided by Obama care that demands that birth control including abortifacients be provided by the nuns to their employees and members. The Supreme Court had approved a preliminary injunction to allow the nuns to avoid opting to provide these services through a third party. It would seem that the "Hobby Lobby" ruling might apply but the 10th Circuit decided that they know better. They get to decide how the nuns practice their religion. They get to decide what violates their conscience. Your religion is what the court decides.
This is all of a piece with the attack on religion and religious people by the progressives. The next battle will of course relate to same sex marriage. Insurance companies are already refusing to insure churches that will not perform same sex marriage ceremonies. The liberal intelligentsia is calling for the denial of tax exemptions for churches who do not toe the line. When SJW tell you that they will never go after the churches point to this situation. This is their plan. This is their goal.
What are we going to do about it? What can we do about it? Where is the Pope in all of this? Why isn't he speaking out for these nuns instead of sipping coca tea and getting crucifixes from commies while denouncing capitalism? Where are the people who will speak up to protect these holy woman who devout their lives to doing God's work?

0n the plus side, Sinead O'Connor called Kim Kardashian a cunt and Rolling Stone a disgrace so there's hope for the world.
The slow "progress" that emerged from Roe v Wade, to where it took a while for the sale of baby parts to beguine, will not be as incremental and slow concerning the new set of "fundamental rights" as found by the Robert's court.
The little sisters of the poor just happened to be first.
Get ready for a series of these in quick succession.
The purpose of this is humiliation of the serfs, as is the purpose of much commie propaganda.
God will get him.
You do not mess with the One True Church any more than you mess with God's Chosen People.
PS Some Lefty moron on another board asked me why God didn't save the Jews in Europe.
I reminded him He sent the US Army.
I am afraid you are right Lem. In case after case the practice of religion will be overruled in favor of abortion rights or gay rights or transgender rights or robot rights or pedophile rights or bestiality rights. Whatever the politically correct cause of the moment will be used to throw over and stamp out the practices that have been honored for thousands of years of human history.
You will not be able to opt out. You will not be able to show "tolerance." Because you are the one that will not be tolerated. Any sort of deviant behavior from harvesting parts of human flesh generated by partial birth abortions to letting derelicts urinate in the streets to forcing churches to bestow their sacramental rights on perverts to making nuns provide the means to abort babies will all be forced on you by the courts. They will punish you. They will destroy you. There really is no escape.
Our leaders are silent. The people that purport to represent us don't have anything to say that will disrupt their invitation to Meet the Press or the latest Georgetown cocktail party.
Where do we turn?
Ooops!

May I suggest we start with the Airborne Ranger in the Sky?
Then the Gospel According to Ben (Lt Col Vandervoort): You can't show' em any mercy. Send 'em to Hell.
Followed by the Gospel According to Thomas (E Lawrence): No prisoners.
Then the Gospel According to Jimmy (Malone): It only matters what a man can do and what he will do. You've done all you can, now what are you willing to do?
I also think it would be cool if Roberts, after throwing us over yet again when the case hits SCUS, and his family are denied the sacraments for allowing something like that.
He may be yet another Lefty, cafeteria Catholic, but it sure would be a humiliation for him.
The left want to crush it all so they can fill the void with their all-loving dictator.
I'm telling you guys right now to save your ammo and prepare. This shit can't stand for long. They are pushing for a fight and I think they are going to get it.
