The Mandate Against Catholics is being felt . . .

Ever since the president decided to cross the line that separated Church and State with his mandate re. all medical insurance companies provide contraceptive coverage and worse, we have kind of been waiting for the other shoe to fall. It is falling as Franciscan University will not be offering medical insurance to the students this Fall. Today, the news reports that Ave Maria University will probably follow suit. Given the previous attitude seen at Notre Dame, I'd really be surprised if they worried about it but I hope I'm wrong and they will stand by the Catholic conscience this time around.

It is fascinating to me that the president wanted the healthcare bill and such to make sure everyone was cared for yet he is making it impossible for Catholic institutions to take care of their students because of the president's lack of regard and lack of tolerance that isn't in line with his idea of what should or should not be tolerated.
