WASHINGTON, DC, October 27, 2011 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Bishop William Lori, chair of the USCCB’s newly created Ad Hoc Committee for Religious Liberty, called on Congress to take action to protect religious liberty in testimony delivered yesterday before a House Judiciary subcommittee.
He told the committee that the USCCB’s decision this past June to create the committee he was now chairing was motivated by a pressing concern over the recent onslaught of attacks against religious liberty.
The bishop focused in particular on actions taken by the Obama Administration, including the controversial HHS mandate requiring employers to cover all contraceptives, including drugs that can cause early abortions.
Additionally, he pointed to the administration’s decision to withdraw government contracts from Catholic organizations such as Catholic Relief Services and the USCCB’s Migration and Refugee Services (MRS) based on those organizations’ refusal to provide “reproductive services” that conflict with Church teaching.
“Already, HHS has taken its major program for serving trafficking victims away from MRS and transferred it to several smaller organizations that frankly may not be equipped to assume this burden,” he said.
He also criticized the Department of Justice for the polemical tone of recent court briefs it had filed in opposition to the Defense of Marriage Act. According to Lori, the DOJ had claimed “that supporters of the law could only have been motivated by bias and prejudice.” ...
Bishop Lori called for “urgent and concentrated action” in response to these attacks, including support for the Protect Life Act, the Abortion Non-Discrimination Act, and the Respect for Rights of Conscience Act.
He suggested that a Congressional hearing may be needed to investigate “the illegal conditions that HHS and USAID are placing on providers of human services.”
He also noted the existence of state attacks on religious liberty, such as New York’s failure to protect the conscience rights of court clerks who refuse to cooperate with same sex marriage and Illinois’ refusal to allow Catholic Charities to facilitate adoption and foster care.

Video: Rebuttal of naked students supporting Obamacare
If video fails, go to http://divine-ripples.blogspot.com/2010/10/rebuttal-of-naked-students-pose-to.html
Obama's people take off their clothes when they're losing ground. Someone needs to forward to them the parliamentary procedure. I almost feel sorry for the poor suckers. Pardon the pun, but here's a rebuttal of their covering argument.

Miraculous picture of Mother Mary and another of demons?
This is an alleged photograph of the Virgin Mary taken during an apparition in Medjugorje. The photographer (unknown) snapped a picture of the wall where the alleged apparition was taking place, and discovered this picture when it was developed. Ivan Dragicevic, one of the six visionaries, confirmed that this was indeed a picture of the Blessed Mother. However, he added that she was much more beautiful in person.
These are members of the so-called Catholic United group that is promoting support for Democrats and Obamacare. They're opposing the pro-life tour of the Susan B. Anthony List these days. Catholic United misrepresents the Catholic Church's teaching misleading the faithful to support the Democrats and Obama last election. I am not sure if there are demons in this photo but, their work is certainly diabolic. So, I suspect the prince of darkness is somewhere there.

Video: Obamacare: More Fraud. Cost +$115 Billion more
Here are more facts from the government that exposes and confirms the fraudulent statements of the sponsors and proponents of Obamacare. I'll spare you the tirade. And note if you see this reported in the major networks.
In six months, we'll have a chance to take back our government and undo these take-overs. But, we need to have at least 66% of Congress to be effective. (That's what is needed to override the president's veto.)

Video: Rick Warren on Obama, Jobs, Healthcare, Abortion, Holocaust
Rick Warren discusses Obama's responsibility and the current challenges in America today.

Excerpts:
I am neither left nor right wing; I am for the whole bird - America.
What stewardship of influence is for those without a voice.
Any 16 year old boy who bought a condom knows when life begins.
46 million Americans are not here; that's a holocaust.
I am not pro-life; I am whole life. We need to expand the agenda after the child is born.

Video: Escalation of Violence. Protesters Undettered.
The protests in Iran get worse as protesters get beaten up and shot. Today's video shows how the masses are not intimidated.
Could this happen here in the US if Obama and his Democrats continue to ignore the constitution and shun the people's will? It may be time to buy a gun as a cop would be too heavy to carry.

Kinkade, Obama and God the Holy Spirit
Obama’s administration rushed into redirecting funds from pro-lifers to abortion providers in Mexico and is reversing the conscience protection for doctors and nurses who refuse to perform abortions. Watch this in 2 minutes and you’ll see who he is. Here's the link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pf0XIRZSTt8&feature=player_embedded or just click below.
Regardless, it is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness. Note that we’re not painting a candle but lighting one. That requires real fire - the one that is fervently burning with the love of God and is illuminated with Himself because He is the Truth.
Kinkade, the painter of light does a breath taking job in making candles glow in a painting. However the painted light is cold and dark. Touch it and you feel nothing; bring it to a dark room, and it turns dark too – just like the proponents of the culture of death. The defenders of the unborn and their Creator have the fire from God’s Holy Spirit who is God’s Love Personified. That is the fire that will expose the posers & outlast the fake lights.
