Beck Announces ‘We Are All Catholics Now’ Movement to Stand Up for Religious Freedom

The controversy over the Obama administration’s contraception mandate is at a boiling point, as many Catholic leaders continue to view the president’s so-called “accommodation” as a failure to protect religious liberty.
Now, Glenn Beck is coming forward with a new movement called “We Are All Catholics Now.” The main goal of the initiative is to ask Americans to reach out to Congressional leaders (at the moment, Senators) to encourage the passage of legislation that would protect religious groups’ conscience rights.
Watch Beck discuss the effort on his radio show this morning:
The main push, Beck says, is to support the highway transportation bill, which will likely be voted upon this week. It will include an amendment – Blunt Conscience Protection Amendment – from Sen. Roy Blunt (R-MO) that would protect religious conscience rights. In the House, Rep. Jeff Fortenberry (R-Neb.) is working on companion legislation, though it may not be voted on for a few weeks.
Beck is encouraging individuals to get involved by calling their Senators and letting them know that “we are all Catholics now.” The issue at hand is not about contraception as it has been framed by many media outlets, he says. Instead, it is a religious freedom issue that hinges upon the separation of church and state’s mandate that the government not force churches to violate their values and principles.
Here are his directions for getting involved and making an impact:
Call the Capitol and speak with your Senator. The numbers are: 202.224.3121; 202.225.3121; the toll free numbers for the Capitol Switchboard include: 1-866-220-0044 1-877-851-6437, 1-800-833-6354, 1-888-355-3588, 1-866-808-0065, 1-877-762-8762, 1-800-862-5530.
Call the switchboard, ask to be connected to a Senator from your specific state (it will take two calls, one for each Senator).
Whoever answers:
1. Tell them that you want to tell the Senator to vote for the Blunt conscience protection amendment.
2. Ask them if they know how the Senator will vote on that amendment
3. Tell them you want to be contacted back about how he voted (be sure to ask for accountability — they hate it, but it makes them call you back).
4. When you call, be sure to tell them “We are all Catholics now”. This key phrase will let them know you are part of a larger, organized movement working in support of religious freedom.

Posted on February 15, 2012 at 11:35amThe teagenda is clear as a bell. Just look at the Personhood bills that they’re trying to pass state-wide, to date unsuccessfully, which could criminalize hormonal contraceptives. At least 50% of Republicans, 65% of Catholics, support the availability of family planning and contraceptives. The R-war on women’s rights will backfire. Happy 2012 :^)

Posted on February 15, 2012 at 12:12pmTIFOSA, I actually feel sorry for you, don’t know how someone could miss the tyranny of government control over society. On abortion, conservatives believe that unborn life is worthy of protection. I find it odd that liberals would be up in arms if women were forced to have abortions, and you can bet you would see the grissely human carcasses over and over. The truth is that it is a murderous horror that happens to the babies, not whether one should be allowed to choose it or not. The same truth is that life begins when it begins, at the beginning. It matters not what your opinion is.

You are free also to call yourself a Catholic but when you reject the definition of the faith as defined by Dogma, as far as the Church is concerned you cease to be Catholic.
We have free will, always have, but there are also consequences to your choices. Pick one. You either support the evil in the ending of life (Politics/Obama), or you are a Catholic. You cannot have it both ways.

Posted on February 15, 2012 at 1:19pmI don’t know if this is what Tifosa was referring to but I did a Google search for “Personhood Bill” and I found this:
Anti-abortion “personhood” bill advances in Virginia
Virginia lawmakers took a step toward outlawing abortion on Tuesday by approving “personhood” legislation that grants individual rights to an embryo from the moment of conception.
The Republican-controlled House of Delegates voted 66-32 in favor of defining the word person under state law to include unborn children “from the moment of conception until birth at every stage of biological development.”
Virginia’s effort avoids involving a constitutional amendment like those states, instead seeking changes throughout the legal code, said Elizabeth Nash, public policy associate at the Washington-based Guttmacher Institute, which studies reproductive health issues.
But she said the intent is the same, with the measure ultimately aimed at banning abortion, contraception and infertility treatment.
“Should this bill become law, it could have a far-reaching impact on women’s access to health care,” Nash said. “No state, as yet, has adopted anything like this.”

Posted on February 15, 2012 at 2:13pmTIFOSA – it has nothing to do with women’s rights. It’s about the government forcing someone to purchase something they do not want to purchase. Why do some people think they should get health care for free. If you want birth control go out and buy it yourself. Health insurance has turned into just another entitlement. That’s why the government should be out of the “charity” business.

This may be fun and games for you because today it is about the teachings of the Catholic Church. What you fail to realize is tomorrow it may be a “forced allegiance “to an unknown entity. You see it isn’t about the particular issue as much as it is about “power” and your loss of rights. If they can force everyone to provide contraception I suppose they can also force everyone to use it. You are giving away your own rights when you agree with this. Just because the issue doesn’t affect you today, the next one may. Good Luck with that.

Posted on February 15, 2012 at 9:51pmDevout Catholics do not use contraception anyway. They teach responsible family planning. Big difference. But, since most do not participate in pre-marital counseling or family planning education these days, I can clearly see how the left is using this issue to scream about women’s rights and entitlement to birth control. They want to use America’s ignorance about the Catholic beliefs and practices in order cloak and use the smoke and mirrors yet again, to deceive the fact that this issue is about chipping away against Catholic institutions and henceforth, religion, faith, and another Constitutional right. This isn’t about birth control. It’s about the United States government dictating to a specific religious organization, the Catholic Church. The whole reason people came here in the first place was because they chose to kneel before God freely and not before a King. You are either with us Catholics or or not people. Next they’ll come for the Baptists, Mormons, Lutherans, Methodists, Presbyterian or whatever part of the Christian faith you ascribe to. If they can tell the Catholic Church what to do, then what chance do the rest of you have? This President has proven himself Anti-Semitic, and in totality, Anti-Religion and Anti-Faith. Everyone cross themselves, my new Catholic brothers and sisters in faith. Welcome to the fight.

Just like government . . .the more rules and standards you place on how one must conduct his or her life . . . the more likely that person is to violate or even rebel against those rules and standards.
Religion is unpopular BECAUSE of people like Glenn who want to legislate religious based moral codes into public law.
Religious freedom is religious freedom. If Christians and Muslims actually practiced what they preached and policed themselves sufficiently enough – no one would gives a rats ass whether or not knelt down at a pew in a cathedral or on a mat in a mosque.

Stabenow’s person said he “didn’t know what her position was on the amendment, but would pass my comments on. I asked for accountability, meaning a call-back, and was informed that they “send a letter” with the answer. Levin’s office stated that he has not “made a public announcement” on his position, but they have had lots of calls about this, and would take my comments. I again asked for accountability, and was told it was a “comments only” line, and I would have to send a letter or email asking for the information.

Posted on February 15, 2012 at 11:12amOne, (just one), of the problems I have with the, “we are all Catholics now” mantra is that Catholics overwhelmingly voted for Obama last time. I personally am not in that catagory that voted for Obama and now don’t like what he is doing to me. I am in the catagory of not voting for Obama and never liked what he has done or is doing. The focus is too centered on this one issue, in my mind, and not on the fact that Obama is trampling on the Constitution as a whole. This issue is just one stomp in the trampling process of the Constitution that Obama and the progressives are performing. I’ll stand with Catholics on this issue. But I can‘t ’identify‘ with them since I didn’t vote for Obama in the first place.

This is the thrust of the entire argument/ It has absolutely nothing to do with birth control or abortion.

Posted on February 15, 2012 at 10:06amThis is a moot point, Beck is with holding the truth to get his handful of listeners worked up. Here is the fact, it was the law prior to Obama.
In December 2000, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ruled that companies that provided prescription drugs to their employees but didn’t provide birth control were in violation of Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which prevents discrimination on the basis of sex. That opinion, which the George W. Bush administration did nothing to alter or withdraw when it took office the next month, is still in effect today—and because it relies on Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, it applies to all employers with 15 or more employees. Employers that don‘t offer prescription coverage or don’t offer insurance at all are exempt, because they treat men and women equally—but under the EEOC’s interpretation of the law, you can’t offer other preventative care coverage without offering birth control coverage, too. http://motherjones.com/politics/2012/02/controversial-obama-birth-control-rule-already-law

[The Congress shall have Power] To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian tribes;”
As you can see the commerce clause with the necessary and proper clause indicates that the congress may regulate commerce, but that does not give it the authority to force a private entity(Me or anyone else) to engage in a contract with another private entity(the insurance providers or any other provider of goods). If what you say is true the government would have the right to force me to buy anything from pet rocks to hybrid cars.
I mean, if you can find me one instance in which these clauses were used this way then I’ll concede defeat.Do you really believe the founders would have want the federal government to have that much power? Do you believe they should?

@C.Rozycki…you saying my faith and that of my whole family going back over a 1000′s years is a cult or fake and not based in the Bible…proves you know NOTHING about the Catholic Church. Every Sunday the Church has at least 3 different passages read from the Bible!! and then a preaching (homily) by the priest about the meaning of those passages.
Now while I have not attended a Catholic church regularly for the last 8 years, my family has been going to a non-denominational church because my wife was once like you, taught by her family and friends to be a religious bigot. The reason we picked the church we did was because 40% of the church were Catholics and the pastor, raised a Presbyterian -strict!!, was actually a man of God that grew to appreciate certain aspects of the Catholic Church.
And one more thing…if you go back to one of the modern “father” of the Protestant movement, John Wesley, and read his writings, he ALSO praised the Catholic Church and rebuked ALL those that tried to speak as you do, saying that he had NO problem with the Catholic Church even if he did disagree with them on some practices or rites they performed. Again…he had NO problem with their method of teaching as long as they believe in One God, the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost and the risen Christ, which ALL real Catholics do, Nancy Pelosi isn’t a real Catholic.
