The Bishop in my Diocese decided on our behalf to file a federal lawsuit against the HHS over the “birth control mandate.” Hey jerk, maybe you ought to consider listening to the nuns—y’know, the WOMEN in the church?
His memo that had to go out in every parish’s bulletins also says that because of the birth control mandate, the Church wouldn’t be able to help all people anymore, that they would have to verify people are Catholic in order to help them because the mandate redefines religious organization. This is the most disgusting, illiterate interpretation of the law—these asshats have to know how much they are misleading their congregations by pushing this shit.
Looks like the good Bishop is getting a screed from me…handwritten, because he doesn’t accept email. No correlation there between his preferred communication and being stuck in the damn dark ages. Nosiree Bob.
