-- SatireFor over 150 years an international group of Catholic nuns and other religious have taken a vow to minister to the elderly poor in dozens of countries around the world. They believe in the worth and sanctity of every person including, most of all, those who are considered by others to be weak and worthless. However these godly and humble women who devoted their whole lives to providing love, comfort and support to the poor elderly whom they serve are, unfortunately, politically incorrect. They believe in the sanctity of life from the womb to the grave. And they do not believe in abortion or contraception. Because of their deeply held religious convictions they have been subjected to years of litigation simply because they do not want to abide by a Federal contraceptive mandate that required employers to offer a plan for their employees which provides at no cost, abortion services, abortifacients and counseling thereof. In short, because they believed in the sanctity of life and because they sought an exemption from the contraceptive mandate, they were harassed by federal and state governments and subjected to potential fines and financial ruin.
