It is an excellent start. And to my point on the other thread, it's not just the Catholic League now - it's the Church herself. They carry into this lawsuit their own culpability for the situation in which they've helped place the country. So I pray that God has mercy, and that with His blessing, the Church is successful in rocking this government back onto its heels.

A rocking to the point where columns fall on the guilty would suit me just fine!
But yes, this is a major development, and I hope it gives many more the courage to step up and join the fight!
It cannot come soon enough!

I read the title and thought, "Oh? Somebody dumped all the lawyers in the ocean?"

Sorry to get your hopes up that high! ;D

May 21, 2012 - CATHOLIC REBELLION HAS BEGUN (http://www.catholicleague.org/catholic-rebellion-has-begun/)
This is a great day for those who believe in religious liberty. Suing the Obama administration for seeking to trash the First Amendment rights of Catholics are 43 Catholic dioceses and institutions from all over the nation.
Among those filing suit are: the Archdiocese of New York; the Archdiocese of Washington, D.C.; the Archdiocese of St. Louis; the Diocese of Rockville Centre; the Diocese of Dallas; the Diocese of Fort Worth; the Diocese of Pittsburgh; the Diocese of Fort Wayne-South Bend; the Michigan Catholic Conference (which represents all seven dioceses in the state); Catholic University of America; Franciscan University of Steubenville; and the University of Notre Dame. Entities ranging from retirement homes to publishing houses joined the lawsuits.
There will be more. And depending on how the U.S. Supreme Court rules next month on the constitutionality of ObamaCare, this may just be the beginning.
Catholics are sending an unmistakable sign to President Obama, Kathleen Sebelius, et al. that we will not be obedient. We will not do as we are told. Instead, we will do what is just. The Catholic rebellion has begun. _ _ _ Bill Donohue
(CNSNews.com) (http://cnsnews.com/news/article/us-bishops-prepare-catholics-civil-disobedience-we-may-need-witness-truth-resisting-law) - ...the Catholic bishops of the United States are now preparing Catholics for what may be the most massive campaign of civil disobedience in this country since the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and early 1960s.
“Some unjust laws impose such injustices on individuals and organizations that disobeying the laws may be justified,”...
...
“...we may need to witness to the truth by resisting the law and incurring its penalties.”...
The bulletin insert reminds Catholic parishioners that the bishops have called for “A Fortnight of Freedom”—which they have described as “a special period of prayer, study, catechesis, and public action”—to take place from June 21 to July 4.

Exactly! I'm still thinking a thousand lawyers at ocean's bottom is a good start!

Barnhardt is of the opinion that they're playing into the Regime's hands by threatening to close down their schools, hospitals, and charities. She is right that they need to NOT close down, and just continue doing as they see fit regardless of what this lawless regime says. Shutting down is exactly what the Regime wants them to do.
