It is truly awesome to see how President Obama trapped the GOP into taking ridiculously radical positions on
birth control, of all things,
something that has been a non-issue among normal Americans for decades.
Political genius.
Those who think about it know that it is not about Birth Control. It is about the 1st amendment. But then it's Obama so you excuse that.

It's about the 1st amendment alright; it's about conservatives not understanding the 1st amendment.

It's the 'Free Exercise' clause, NY. Catholics operate those non-profit hospitals and schools as part of the exercise of their religion. It's called charity, or social justice, if you prefer. They don't make any money doing it, in fact they spend BILLIONS. Exercising their religion.
NOT 'running a business', NOT 'making a buck', but EXERCISING their religious dictates.
And helping millions of poor people in the process.
WHY would you or anyone else want to put them in a position to STOP?

Horseshit. The Catholic operate those things because there's money to be made and fat government contracts to be milked. It's about the money.
Which I have no problem with. But like any other business, they should comply with the law, and this is a pretty reasonable one.

Again, how much money does the Catholic Church 'make' from their charities?
Be specific.
I haven't seen one person on the other side of this debate that can explain how this is not a 1st Amendment issue

The free exercise clause is not an absolute, and it does not cover actions that are not religious by their nature, such as operating hospitals or schools. The fact that you don't understand this shows that you are completely ignorant regarding the limits of first amendment protects and the expansive case law that goes back well more than a century.

Catholic Charities are religious by their nature. Ever single one comes from Christ's teachings.

Exactly. I ran up $50,000 of bills at the Catholic Hospitals between 2006 and 2008, some of which I paid, some of which my insurance did. (Oddly, the company got rid of people who ran up medical bills in 2008) and the Catholics were happy to take my dirty, dirty atheist money.
It's about the money.
