BO 'Using Federal Law to Target Christians' -Purpose 'Is to Discriminate Against Religious Organizations That Oppose Abortion'

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 

Bob Unruh / WND

Obamacare has been challenged in court since it was launched, with charges that it is unconstitutional, violates religious rights, invades privacy and unlawfully orders consumers to purchase a product.

Now, a new lawsuit by four Christian institutions argues the Obama administration is using the law to attack religious groups that oppose the White House’s promotion of abortion.

The plaintiffs allege “the purpose” of Obamacare’s mandate that employers pay for abortion-causing contraception and abortion “is to discriminate against religious organizations.”

The complaint cites then-Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius comparing Obamacare opponents to “people who opposed civil rights legislation in the 1960s” and asserting that upholding the law requires the same action as was shown ‘in the fight against lynching and the fight for desegregation.’”

Attorneys with the Alliance Defending Freedom are representing the Association of Christian Schools International, Samaritan Ministries International, Taylor University and Indiana Wesleyan University in the case against Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell, Labor Secretary Thomas Perez and others.

The Supreme Court already has ruled the abortion mandate cannot force business owners to violate their faith.

So the White House has offered an “accommodation” in which the abortion-causing drugs and abortion services can be provided to the employees without any paperwork that connects the transactions to the employer.

The Christian organizations contend, however, the Obama rules still impose a burden, or duty, on them.

“They believe that God has condemned the intentional destruction of innocent human life. They hold, as a matter of religious conviction, that it would be sinful and immoral for them intentionally to participate in, pay for, facilitate, enable, or otherwise support access to abortion, which destroys human life,” the complaint explains.

      like most folks i have no time whatsoever for this laughable excuse for a president.

      he might possibly be fit for president of a local hobby club. possibly…

      however,that aside, to argue the important issue of abortion,and the right or not,of a woman’s choice on the
      basis of some deity is obscene.

      ok, argue on medical grounds,moral grounds,legal grounds.

      but not on some people’s interpretation of some questionable scriptures,about a deity for which there is no evidence for.

      people are more important than idols.

      whatever side of the argument one is on,we have to take decisions as human beings,not based on some supposed cult/deity/religion.

      Christianity doesn’t have a legal leg to stand on with abortions, seeing as they used to force women to have them as the result of their ‘test for an unfaithful wife’, including suspicion or plain jealousy.
