Contraception Mandate Outrages Religious Groups...

^ It is not about taxation. It is about being able to exempt oneself from fair labour practises.

And let's take that a step further, of those employees working for those institutions who's infringing upon their religious liberties and rights by not providing them with those healthcare options?

The Church?

The Corporate CEO's?

I say if you don't like the mandates then get off the Government Teet!

That would be religious tyranny, for an employee to be able to demand that his employer fulfill his religious requirements.

Huh? How is providing jobs and services being on "the Government Teet"? Do you think churches are federally funded????

I was attempting to turn that around by saying just the opposite of what you said. Is it not religious tyranny for employers, in this case religious institutions who employ large numbers of people who don't even subscribe to the same religion as those institutions, or their employers?

They accept federal funding, grants, tax exemptions, and a list of other taxpayer funded benefits, while advocating the legislation of their religious views and morals, and when the Government requires that they require "options" (rather than mandates) they and the conservatives are now screaming "war on religion."

Give me a break.
