Catholics and Health Care

Catholics and Health Care
Since the ACA, catholics have been acquiring a larger percentage of the health care market.

An example from Washington: http://states.secular.org/states/washing...cular-ones

Another example: http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2013...ealth-care

The attached website has some interesting articles about their activities. Not sure why there are no posts since Dec 2015.

Great news, that means we're even further away from stem cell research and legal euthanasia. How wonderful

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable."

RE: Catholics and Health Care
There may not be any articles after 12/2015 due to the finalization of Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act, which prohibits health care entities that receive federal funds from engaging in discriminatory practices. I think it was implemented in July of this year.

You can read more about it on conservative/religious/pro-life sites under catchy headlines like:
 "Obama Demands Hospitals to Perform Abortions and Sex Changes", or similar to that effect.
