This is a good day. The Supreme Court has ruled that religious organizations cannot be forced to cover contraception and contraceptive services under the Affordable Care Act. This means that companies like Hobby Lobby or organizations like the Little Sisters of the Poor will not have their faith impugned because of what the government thinks.
Feminists right now are irate, but they must remember that religion also has rights - even in a secular state. Their own selfishness is not the law of the land, despite what they think. Blocking the conception of a child or wanting it to be killed is not the way to go in this country. We're not setting "women's rights" back 100 years, we're causing its' demise, thanks be to God. Its very idea is nefarious to the idea of a Catholic family. Women were not meant to kill babies, block kids and destroy marriage when it's convenient for them, and if the idea of "women's rights" is mostly that in today's society, then maybe there should be no such thing.
Maybe it is time for a society that recognizes the Catholic model for family as the norm, where the man is the head of the household, the woman is subservient and recognizes the joy and beauty of motherhood, and the kids are raised to be well-off, godfearing people. We do not need women's rights anymore. We really don't. We can recognize the dignity of women but not submit to the feminist agenda.
You can recognize the beauty, dignity and honor of the Lord's creation without submitting to their false views. Some of the most aesthetically beautiful churches I've ever seen were Protestant, for example. I can admire their beauty when I pass by them on a drive somewhere (or looking on the Internet) but I don't go inside for worship. Secular events, like concerts, sure.
