Why so upset over Birth Control Coverage, Catholic Church?

6. This is not a violation of the First Amendment.....

First Amendment --

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

ACA does not make law respecting an establishment of religion nor does it prohibit the free exerecise thereof. Just because the law makes available to women the opportunity to exercise control over their own bodies doesn't mean they have to take advantage of that option.

The Catholic Church should be able to stand on the merits and wisdom of its message to its members. The problem is that they don't trust their own members to abide by their archaic doctrine.
