The Supreme Court and Holy Souls Hermitage: delaying the Obamacare decision

I’m not absolutely certain of the timing, but I noticed yesterday, in looking over the blog stats that were scrolling along in a blur, that the Supreme Court of the United States visited http://holysoulshermitage.com just before making the decision to delay the Obamacare decision. They visited only one post, which cited just two very hard hitting legal points about such things in the encyclical Evangelium vitae of Blessed Pope John Paul II. That post makes it clear than a merely political solution is not enough: HERE. Yikes!

It seems there four on one side, four on the other, with the ninth being embattled.

So, from the USCCB fortnight4freedom.org:

Prayer for the Protection of Religious Liberty

O God our Creator,

Through the power and working of your Holy Spirit,
you call us to live out our faith in the midst of the world,
bringing the light and the saving truth of the Gospel
to every corner of society.

We ask you to bless us
in our vigilance for the gift of religious liberty.
Give us the strength of mind and heart
to readily defend our freedoms when they are threatened;
give us courage in making our voices heard
on behalf of the rights of your Church
and the freedom of conscience of all people of faith.

Grant, we pray, O heavenly Father,
a clear and united voice to all your sons and daughters
gathered in your Church
in this decisive hour in the history of our nation,
so that, with every trial withstood
and every danger overcome—
for the sake of our children, our grandchildren,
and all who come after us—
this great land will always be “one nation, under God,
indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”

We ask this through Christ our Lord.

Amen.
