RC Vote Breaking To Obama
RC Vote Breaking To Obama by MSW. MGB: I have always thought it particularly arrogant for the bishops to speak in the name of the Church on politics without first conducting a few listening sessions with the laity for whom they are speaking - and who are perfectly capable of ignoring their political guidance without the least consciousness of sin. Indeed, the Church as employer should be under the control of the laity, not the clergy. On the religious freedom argument having to do with contraception, the fact is still that all Church institutions currently provide this coverage if they provide preventative care through third party insurance - and have done so since December 2000. Any analysis that omits this fact is lying by omission.
