Text:
Some media outlets and others looking at the revised HHS contraceptive-abortifacient drug mandate are clearly under the impression that the HHS has substantially expanded its exemptions for “religious employers” under mandate rules.  Pro-life groups and others are saying, “Not so fast.”  Now, no distinction is being made between houses of worship, its schools, institutions, or its employees.  Attorney Wesley Smith says the new rules, despite their nice-sounding press releases, are a rapid way for the Obama administration to expand the HHS mandate.  No conscience is allowed in the public square, no institution is allowed to express in their business conduct what they teach in their classrooms, even insurance for nuns in a church convent would be required to offer contraceptives.

After nationwide criticism and being taken to task by three Colorado bishops, Catholic Health Initiatives will no longer argue in court that an unborn child is not a person.  St. Thomas More Hospital is defending itself against the suit involving the tragic death of twin unborn boys at that hospital.

12,000 doses of the Plan B morning-after pill have been dispensed to New York City school children.  A report in the New York Post says the abortifacient hormone overdoses were dispensed without involving parents.
