Let churches be in the church business.
Exactly. Just because the catholic church wants to be involved in the health care business does not mean that they get to impose their will upon their employees. Running a health care organization or hospital is NOT a religious function.
Hey, I find the wholesale circumcision of infants to be quite objectionable and of no health benefit whatsoever, but I don't demand that my insurance company or the hospitals I use not offer that service to those who believe it is a necessary part of their religious faith.
I'll further add that the catholic church is not in a good position to dictate what is moral and what is not.
