The USCCB has launched an education website to inform Catholics about the Church's position on health care reform. Get informed -- know the facts. At the very least, watch the first four videos.
"Health care is not just another issue for the Church or for a healthy society. It is a fundamental issue of human life and dignity. Health care is a critical component of the Catholic Church’s ministry. The Church provides health care, purchases health care and picks up the pieces of a failing health care system. The Catholic community encounters and serves the sick and uninsured in our emergency rooms, shelters and on the doorsteps of our parishes. One out of six patients is cared for in Catholic hospitals. We bring both strong convictions and everyday experience to the issue of health care.
Genuine health care reform that protects the life and dignity of all is a moral imperative and a vital national obligation." Bishop William Murphy

ReplyDeleteTom, I deleted you because, frankly, your comment had nothing to do with my post. Go drop a load somewhere else.(That wasn't very ladylike was it?)
