No Birth Control Or Family Planning For Anyone

The RCC Bishops and Cardinals want to force their beliefs on America.
They want to make America a theocracy. The time to tax the RCC has arrived. The same goes for the Evangelicals.

The Orthodox Church does not oppose birth control, although it does oppose abortion.

5. You can bet Santorum does not abstain. The man against abortion who's wife had one.

Granted it was needed but if it is good enough for the two of them, why is it such a sin for everyone else?
