It's long over due for the Catholic Church to relax its position on contraceptives. Over and over the religious institution have shown that they don't understand the concept of women centric policies because there aren't any women present in religious hierarchies. Not a single women is among the ranks of Catholic leaders that cry foul when governmental policies insist that all women have access to birth control should they desire so.
Obama modified the policy last Friday to require insurance companies, and not the religiously affiliated organization itself, to pay for birth control-Not enough for the naysayers-
But the issue hear isn't even about the mandate by President Obama anymore-It's about the wholly male centered, male dominated, male run, ancient institution that refuses to acknowledge women's right to choose- period.
