No one is making you seek that job at a private company -- so why does that company have to go against its conscience just to accommodate YOUR beliefs? Why not limit the practice of YOUR beliefs to a specified building during certain hours, instead?  So what you’re saying is, people can only practice their beliefs and adhere to a moral standard within the confines of a specific building and during specific hours?

As for "unwanted" pregnancies, is there any particular reason why you think people shouldn't take any responsibility at all for their actions? One wonders how much time is spent, during your average Planned Parenthood visit, in teaching women enough about their own bodies so as to be able to identify the 36 hours a month when they can actually get pregnant. (I'll go way out on a limb here and say that probably, it's none whatsoever.) Isn't learning as much as possible about one's own body important? Especially when it comes to one's health and well being, knowledge is empowerment. Is the rhythm method foolproof? No, of course not -- although it worked just fine for me. But then, I know a child who was conceived in spite of both her mother having been on The Pill for over a year, and her father having worn a condom. (Her parents decided not to have any more children after making three girls, so they are very cautious and careful -- but the fourth obviously had other plans, and arrived anyway.)

It's only saying that it doesn't want to fund its use if it's being taken as a means of contraception. Incidentally, the Catholic Church has nothing against the rhythm method of birth control: it's truly not that difficult to figure out one's own cycle and to refrain from intercourse for 36 hours a month. It worked fine for me, and I managed to figure out my own cycle by the time I was in my early twenties -- BEFORE the days of the OTC kits that tell you exactly when you're fertile each month.

So when pelosi, or her coharts, states this is an issue for woman's health, she is lying through her teeth. Contraceptives are detrimental to a woman's health. They cause the body to go through unnatural cycles, or delete the natural cycle altogether. They can cause blood clots - just a horribly controverted biological process. Birth control medications are used more for the convenience of the couple. But don't get me wrong. I believe in the use of contraceptives. I do not understand the Catholic belief that contraceptives are immoral. Whether you practice the rythym method, or withdrawal, or prophylactics or medications, it is all to prevent contraception. So, I do not believe in the Catholic ideology. However, don't get me wrong again - I am so angered by obama trying to intervene, and go against the Catholic belief as to force the Catholic entity to provide for birth control, in all the states from prevention to abortion. And as a final statement, I just want the government out of my health care - completely. Any decision I have to make about my health should be between me and my doctor, and perhaps my family.

Jesus said himself that we do not speak from our tongues but from our hearts and the condition of our hearts. If that is the case, we let people live or die because it is in our hearts to do so one way or the other. That is not a nice thing to think about, but it goes back to accepting responsibility for it. One cannot be empowered to fix what is happening unless they accept responsibility for why it is happening?  Going back to scripture beliefs do kill.

Evil cannot fix itself. Only God can and that is through Christ, both Jesus being the head and the body of Christ, but the body needs to take or at least accept responsibility for it and then seek God for the solution? If the body keeps saying things like it is evil that needs to fix evil, we are going no where fast....  Well that would be true if we do not go with scriptural accounts of why this stuff happens the way it does and the biblical reason for it is we are dealing with powers and principalities, but the only way out is walking in God’s love and will.

Without God there is little or no respect for self or others. At least that is what scripture seems to indicate and for some of that respect it takes walking in whatever a person has been called of God to do. Once again, if a person in the body of Christ is walking with God that is one thing and if a person even in the body of Christ is not walking with God or too well, they are a danger to themselves and others. Salvation for today is about having respect of God first, others second and ourselves last? Without the Holy Spirit if we did not do irrevocable damages to ourselves we would certainly do it to others if we believe Paul's account where he seemed to feel that there was nothing good in himself except for God. He of course can only speak for himself, but with some self examination we probably would come to the same conclusion? Women are taught whatever they are taught, but they are taught by men. That is not a blame thing, but men mold women one way or the other (again if we believe scripture?). Without scripture then your right we have control over ourselves? Women dress the way they do because they were taught things either by parents or the media that it takes certain things to get and keep a man? Then again men tend to like to say, "if you love me you will do ......." this or that? Please don't make me paint pictures? How many good godly men are there our there? It is an argument either way. But how many men really walk as they are supposed to in Christ or in their purpose or calling, because that is the definition of a godly man, well according to scripture at least?  If we go with scripture for any of this or for possible answers then respect for one’s self is not a human thing, but respect for one’s self is really from God.
