    Most people have no idea what services the Catholic Church even provides. Until they are gone, and then...it's too late.

    Do some research on how the Catholic church feeds people in 3rd world countries , or all over the world for that fact . You can keep spreading lies ,but if you claim to be a christian then that is even a more grave sin, Something tells me you do not care. By the way Christianity does not bow to politics , Maybe on here is the only place people are ignorant enough to fall for your scheme.

    Yes you are a fool . How did you know? Your mere pathetic rancor tells me allot. You actually believe I am going to throw down my values over a complete arrogant fool? Sorry been a Catholic for 53 years ,and do not need a complete arrogant person who misses the whole point , or boast about themselves .

    Basically, yes since you are so arrogant . So you studied at a Catholic university like kathleen Sebelius, and Nancy Palosi. who are ex communicated, but still try to spread there lies? I could care less what university you attended , You are you are trying to put politics into religion . And my faith does not waver at someone like you who tries to influence people with their petty claims.

    And of course we need more homo indoctrination from youtube as the featured video. Someone needs to come up with another video site.

    This video is censored out at the public library. If you try to view it you get some bull shit about flash player not being installed. The same thing happens to the main Ark of the Covenant discovery vid and most of Michael Rood's vids. After clicking on dozens of all sorts of vids these are the only ones I found with that problem. If they do allow you to view a vid about the Ark of the Covenant discovery it is accompanied in the column by vids from some rabbi saying Jesus is not the Christ.

    Once religions stangle hold is released people will be happier and may actually have a chance of regaining creditbility. Having obamacare does allow freedom to chose. And gives everyone that option.

    I think this is a great video, but I can't figure out why the Acton Institute only referenced the Catholic Church. The Orthodox Christian Church, and many Protestant Christian churches -- not to mention many other pro-life organizations -- also stand to lose by this HHS ruling.
