Obama: People of faith must bend to the will of the state… Catholics should have seen this coming...

     The American Catholic Church is outraged at the coercive tactics of the Obama administration.
     Better late than never.
     Here's the lesson:  This is what happens when you invite the wolf in to supper… Sooner or later, he eats you.
     Some 54% of American Catholics voted for Obama in 2008. He who captures the Catholic vote, captures the White House.
     And many supported his mandatory health insurance plan. Even many American bishops felt that government-mandated health insurance would help to serve the poor. Social justice and all, don't you know. Never mind that the whole thing was un-Constitutional in the first place.
     But as with government-mandated anything, the state is calling all the shots. And when Obama recently ordered Catholic employers to provide a certain kind of health coverage, in violation of Church teaching, Catholics nationwide said, Wait just a minute.
     Read this great homily, from a priest who is unafraid to reveal Obama's mandate for what it is. And read this post for an excellent summary of this whole depraved affair.
     So it seems that the president responded to the dust-up in typical form: by appearing to modify the order just enough to still force us to do exactly what he wants: free sterilization, abortion-inducing drugs, and contraception for all. No matter whose moral convictions he steps all over. No matter who pays. Nothing is different.
     None of this is surprising in the least, once you understand who these people are and what their agenda is and always has been: Obama and others like him wish to eliminate religious influence, replacing God with the state.
     In a 2008 speech, making it clear which side must come out on top in a dispute between the state and the Church in order for society as a whole to be better off, President Obama had this to say:

     Notice how this guy never hesitates to exploit convenient disobedient Catholics for his own gain, as if they represent all Catholics; they do not.
     Fast forward through numerous one-size-fits-all executive directives that diminish our freedoms day by day. This latest one suppresses religious freedom and deprives the faithful of their God-given right to follow a well-informed conscience. Not to mention that this is a national mandate for widespread intrinsic evil against life, the very reason the Catholic Church stands against it in the first place.
     Hey all you Catholics who still support this man after seeing him repeatedly discount and marginalize people of faith… The wolf is still hungry.
