From American Thinker:
A liberal reporter speaking at a conference in Georgetown recently dismissed conservative alarms about the Obama administration’s mandate that forces religious institutions — like Catholic Hospitals and Evangelical colleges — to provide coverage for drugs and procedures that can cause abortions and that effect sterilizations. ”What about the anti-Catholic Bible riots in Philadelphia in the 1840s?” she asked. Those led to scores of people actually being killed.
Those Bible riots were deplorable — a blot on American history. But they were not the acts of the federal government. They were lawless violence, not a deliberate policy of oppression.
James Madison famously said that the people are right to take alarm at the “first advance on their liberties.” The Obama mandate will force us to violate our consciences. President Obama famously said that he doesn’t know when human life begins, but he’s willing to force us to collaborate in the destruction of innocent human lives.

This attack on our religious freedoms and freedom of speech, particularly coming at the same time, are egregious; and it’s happening in the military with the restrictions against Chaplains since the repeal of DADT as well, blocking them from preaching according to their beliefs and consciences. It’s a DELIBERATE attack, because globalism CAN’T work with a viable religious, moral or ethical society!
Sure hope all religious folks remember Obama’s agenda come election day. He acts more like a dictator than a president and could care less about the constitution he swore to uphold.
