[quote=Anonymous]I am a Catholic, and I was initially sympathetic to the Church's religious liberty concerns about the mandate. I haven't heard anybody else put it this way, but here is my question: I gather that the Church and other Catholic employers object to being required to buy into insurance pools that make contraceptives etc. available because they don't want to fund, even indirectly, something that the Church teaches is immoral. But every time I go to CVS or Safeway to buy something, aren't I also indirectly funding these same drugs, even though I don't buy them myself? Is the difference that the government is forcing the employer to participate in the insurance pool, but nobody is forcing me to go to CVS for my toothpaste? I am really curious how those who find the mandate objectionable distinguish these two situations.[/quote]
