A Small Political Commentary

I don't usually like to talk politics in my blog. In today's climate, there is no dialogue to be had, just a lot of shouting. But I would like to make what I think is a relevant observation about the recent spat over Health and Human Services decision to mandating coverage of contraceptives. In defense of their actions, President Obama noted that 99% of Catholic women have used contraceptives.

By our own admission, in fact as a core tenet of our organization, we as Catholics believe that without exception, 100% of us have sinned at some point in our lives, but I don't think that requires us to change our understanding of right and wrong.   

Just sayin'.
