IN THE NEWS: FOR OUR FAITH BASED READERS, AS WAPO TARGETS CATHOLIC HOSPITALS, EVERY RELIGIOUS INSTITUTION NEEDS TO BUILD DEFENSES

As Washington Post targets Catholic hospitals, every religious institution needs to build defenses--by Timothy P. Carney, Senior Columnist |
 
October 11, 2022 03:25 PM

The Washington Post has joined in a broad culture-war offensive to crush religious institutions that don’t subscribe to elite morality.

The headline of the latest Post article reads, “Spread of Catholic hospitals limits reproductive care across the U.S.” The sloppy subheadline reads, “Religious doctrine restricts access to abortion and birth control.”

And the editor who let this through tweets out a dark warning.

More importantly, there’s the misguided notion that religious institutions are somehow “imposing their morality” on others by operating their own institutions according to their moral teachings. This is rooted in an impossibly narrow and uninformed understanding of what religion is. You cannot have a religion whose adherents do not let their religion affect how they act in real life, including toward others who may not share their religion.

This mindset holds that the Little Sisters of the Poor should be forced to provide contraception coverage for employees, religious schools must be forced to treat boys who identify as girls as if they were actually girls, and Catholic hospitals should have to perform elective abortions.   READ MORE AT
