Please pray that God's mercy may still withhold His wrath and that the justices of the Supreme Court may still retain a sufficient understanding of justice and Constitutional law to strike down this evil HHS Mandate, which is but a symptom of the iniquitous times in which we live. Otherwise the downward spiral will continue, seen so many times before, as during the reign of Henry VIII in the not-so-merry England of the "Reformation," when things were arbitrarily interpreted to be otherwise than they are -- this mistress is the legitimate queen, the Pope is not the legitimate Head of the Church, evil is good and good is evil, etc., ad perditionem.

Philip,
Does it really matter what the judgment is? (Given that it won't suddenly make our country one which loves truth, we must continue to work for this, regardless of what SCOTUS says).
Could you, in contrast, post the Litany of St. Thomas More (available from the Diocese of Wilmington) and links to the USCCB for the so-called Fortnight for Freedom?
God bless,
Chris
