[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, two questions - and please give my a direct answer - that is only fair since you started and "ask anything" post.

Why should a non-catholic employee of a catholic affiliated employer (this hospital) be subject to catholic restriction on birth control.

You state "When sex is inextricably linked to the possibility of procreation, the full power of a woman is present"  How do you explain the mass rapes of native people and slaves by men (some of whom were devout catholic.  Where was the mutual respect,  where was the power that these women weilded.  Did the fact they created "life" improve their lot in anyway.  [/quote]

First question:  the employee is free to use birth control at will.

Second question:  sex is not rape, and rape is not sex.  I am horrified to think any sane person would equate the two.  Rape is violence.

Catholics are just as capable of evil as anyone else.

And any new life that results from rape is innocent of the crime committed by the father.  The mother and the child are both victims of a great evil.[/quote]
