The League of the South abhors President Barack Obama’s heavy-handed diktat that would require Christians, both Catholic and Protestant, to purchase (and Christian institutions to provide) health insurance plans that cover sterilizations and artificial contraceptives, including those that induce abortions.
League President, Dr. Michael Hill, noted that “Southerners have respect for human life, in all its stages, as a gift from God. Life should be preserved, nurtured, and protected. What this regime demands is that we support a culture of death. I can assure Mr. Obama that the traditional South will never be complicit in such an enormity. We revere the tenets of our common, historic Christian faith and acknowledge its supremacy over man-made laws, judgements, and opinions. No regime can force us to abandon our conscience on this matter.”
No political organisation in the United States has come out with such a strong statement in support of the U.S. Catholic Church’s holy crusade against the Obama administration’s HHS mandate.
